Characters. A comic about the formidable history of typefaces and their authors.

Did you know that the Futura typeface has traveled to the Moon? Or that in Sherlock Holmes' famous play The Hound of the Baskervilles Sir Arthur Conan Doyle pays homage to the great typographer John Baskervillle? And that William Caslon began his career in a workshop of decorative engravings on barrels and pistol stocks?
