"It's almost a New Year, and once again it's your one-day-only opportunity to rummage through Comicraft's remainder bin and snap up Comicrazy for a mere twenty dollars and ten cents rather than $395! And, yes, yes, yes, and thrice YES, ALL of our fonts will be on sale for $20.10, even the ones that usually cost $19! We're THAT crazy! Those of you who have enjoyed our sale in previous years know that it begins at midnight December 31st and ends midnight January 1st wherever you are in the world, so technically New Year's at Comicraft is a 36 hour day! Maybe longer, I didn't look it up or anything."

Great deal on custom comic fonts (some costing hundreds of dollars) on January 1st, only. All fonts are $20. Discerning Powerpoint presenters use these.
