About the Author

John "JG" Roshell, Comicraft's "Mr. Fontastic," is a logo/type designer and lettering artist for comic books.

He began using a Macintosh in 1988. With Comicraft founder Richard Starkings he pioneered many of the computer techniques that are widely used to letter comic books today.

He is also responsible for the creation of the hundreds of typefaces that Comicraft currently uses to letter many of America's best-selling comics, including Spider-Man, Superman, and The X-Men.

He designs logos and trade paperback/hardcover collections (including the Astro City collections, Daredevil: Visionaries, Danger Girl: The Ultimate Collection, and Spider-Man: Blue), and creates and maintains the Active Images network of websites.
