Improving Comic Sans

There are two types of people in the world: those who don’t really think about Comic Sans and those who disdain Comic Sans.
I was wondering why there are so many people against the poor font. I came up with the answer of “Sans”. Maybe the problem is that there are no serifs.
What if someone added serifs to Comic Sans?
What would it be called then? Sans means without. What is the opposite of sans? Con means with. I thought about Comic Con, but that name is already taken. Not for a font, but instantly recognizable to those who care about fonts. I guess the next best thing is the name Comic Serif.
So, here is Comic Serif. Go download it from fontgrill.com, if you want.
The nice thing about spoofing Comic Sans is that you can’t get it wrong. If you make a good font, people will be impressed. And if you do a poor job on the font, people will think you’re trying to be funny by mocking Comic Sans.
They are worthless, a work of mockery;
In the time of their punishment they will perish.
