I downloaded the font as well, and I'm really quite impressed. I can't see 
the font acting as something you'd actually want to use for written documents 
and the like, but a comic book--such as a Barks homage--would work very well 
with it. Obviously.

It would be great if there was also the Barks font (was it of his original 
design?) used in some of the Gladstone books. I don't remember seeing that in 
the older comics, but I really liked it. The original Barks font is a great 
one, but the redesign was very pleasing to the eye. My eye, anyway.
