+# Comic Mono
+A monospaced font based on [Shannon Miwa](https://github.com/shannpersand)’s [Comic Shanns](https://github.com/shannpersand/comic-shanns).
+
+## Changes from Comic Shanns
+1. All glyphs have been adjusted to have exactly the same width (using code based on [monospacifier](https://github.com/cpitclaudel/monospacifier))
+2. The glyph metrics have been adjusted to make it display better alongside system font, based on [Cousine](https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Cousine)’s metrics.
+3. The name is changed to `Comic Mono`.
+4. A bold version of the font is generated using [FontForge’s Embolden](https://fontforge.github.io/Styles.html#Embolden) 
+
+I have no font creation skills, just a software developer. The original font, [Comic Shanns](https://github.com/shannpersand/comic-shanns), is patched using a Python script, [`generate.py`](generate.py).
+
+## Usage
+You can download it and install it like any other font.
+
+## What does it look like?
+Like if someone made a dumbass version of Comic Sans that is monospaced.
