Simon Garfield explains why normally mild-mannered people are so enraged by its use. How did schools ever advertise their Christmas fairs without it? Has a homemade birthday card ever looked so friendly written in anything else? Have type lovers ever found anything they loathe as much? If you wrote these questions in Comic Sans you'd have something that was warm, inoffensive and rather unsuitable, a typeface that's gone wrong. Comic Sans is unique: used the world over, it's a typeface that doesn't really want to be type.

The DC Super-Heroes Ultimate Pop-Up Book [Video Review] - ComicsAlliance | Comics culture, news, humor, commentary, and reviews This week, I picked up something I’ve been pretty excited about for a while: Matthew Reinhart’s DC Super-Heroes Ultimate Pop-Up Book! With six pages of vignettes that include the Anti-Monitor popping out, a towering fight scene between heroes and villains and a light-up Bat-Signal, I thought this thing was pretty awesome. So awesome, in fact, that still pictures just don’t do it justice, which is why today, I’ve busted out the flip camera to give you a video review of a couple of my favorite parts. Here’s a close-up of the pop-up Lex Luthor and his totally awesome smarmy smirk: Despite the fact that it’s only six pages, there’s plenty of fun stuff in the book that you don’t see in the video, like a pop-up that flips Green Lanterns Hal Jordan and Sinestro around into their villanous alter-egos (that’s right: Parallax made it into a pop-up book) and a three-dimensional version of the original Justice League fighting Starro that mimics the team’s first appearance.

This exercise has converted into a form of extreme artwork in which the artist builds structures using only sand found on the beach and seashore. Apart from making sandcastles, many other sculptures can also be created using sand. In order to build these amazing sand sculptures, two fundamental construction ingredients are required namely sand and water. Sand forts are generally created by children for the mere pleasure of it.
