What is the Dave Gibbons font?
How can we possibly call our line of celebrity fonts the MASTERS OF COMIC BOOK ART if it doesn’t include a font based on the remarkable work of comic’s renaissance gentleman, artist/writer/colorist/letterer, Dave Gibbons?!
Based on Dave’s easy-on-the-eye hand lettering, this is the font Dave himself uses to letter projects such as STAR WARS: VADER’S QUEST, MARTHA WASHINGTON & BATMAN: BLACK & WHITE.
As for why Dave wanted to call his font set “Gibbous”; he tells us it means “protuberant, rounded and bulging” — much like his lettering, obviously.

Other guys may imitate him, but the original is still the greatest! Get in with the In Crowd and check out the font created by Mister Fontastic for Dave Gibbons Original Graphic Novel, The, ah, The Originals.
Yes, Dave Gibbons now comes in lower case, it’s not just what he does when he gets back from the off license. Be sure and pick up The Originals from Amazon — now available in paperback, and probably still available as a hard case, much like Dave. After the crack about the beer above, I’m guessing you’ll find me with a broken spine in the remainder pile.
