Learn MoreComic books aren’t just an American thing. Japanese, French, and Italian artists make amazing comics. And the comics they make are all different! Vintage Japanese Manga are more like phonebooks, thick and cheaply printed on colorful paper. French Bandes Dessinées — called BD for short — comic albums are big and hardbound. Small Italian comic books are called fumetto — literally, puffs of smoke — a reference to word balloons!
Here's what you get:
- 25 International Comic Textures. Textures from vintage manga, French bandes dessinées, and Italian fumetti—each with its own unique texture and paper feel.
- Curated and Scanned by a Comics Scholar. Created by Christopher Sperandio, a professor, artist, and comics authority who's exhibited at MoMA/PS1 and worked with DC Comics.
- High-Resolution Power. Every scan is a crisp 600 DPI—perfect for print or zoomed-in digital detail.
- Drag, Drop, Done. Just place in your file, set to Multiply, and you’re instantly transported to another era.
- Real Dimensions, Real Texture. Textures retain the exact size, tone, and imperfections of the source material, no fakes here.
With the curated paper textures in this bundle, you can give your work an international buzz — whether you aspire to be a mangaka — a manga artist — or simply want to give your drawings a little je ne sais quoi, or some non so cosa. The papers in this pack are easy to use — and provide immediate distinction!
Each set of papers is authentic in their height, width and tone. They are generously sized at 600dpi to provide the most flexibility. The easiest way to use them in Photoshop is to set the layers above the paper to “multiply” in order to let the paper color and texture show through.
Journey to the wider possibility of comics and, along the way, discover thousands of new comics and ways of making comics. This paper bundle is your ticket. Add some authentic brushes, comics fonts — try TOOM and the new COMIQUE — and embark on a voyage of vintage comics discovery — and production! See you in the Funny Papers!

- KGKev G.Verified BuyerReviewingTOOMI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 starsFonts for the fearless.
A love of comic books and strips has followed me all my life. I draw to learn and for my own entertainment, always looking for downloads that might help me replicate the inks and fonts I saw in print. Toom has given me amazing fonts to use along with ColorLab, making creative drawing an absolute blast. Quite simply, RetroSupply feels like coming home. The range of paper textures, inks and fonts are the best, so good that I no longer need to shop around.

RSCO has the best and coolest products out there, hands down. Everything is extremely easy to use and figure out and very intuitive. I have bought A LOT of their products (brushes, paper texture, fonts, etc), and they are so authentic and top notch. And they are on it with customer service. They have responded to my messages time and time again and have always been extremely helpful. Great company with great products and great customer service. I'd give 11 stars but 5 is the limit. "But this goes to 11..."

I was looking for vintage papers but not the ones that look like hidden below a sewer pipe, I wanted vintage papers with attitude of former glory, recognizable.
I found the Funny papers pack and got it. Inside you have 3 folders of papers according to region and so far, I've used at least 5 of each on my designs. They give this subtle "old print" feeling without falling into a grunge category.
- PFPhil F.Verified BuyerReviewingTOOMI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 starsIt was the E.C.-eist decision ever!
I do a lot of cartooning and humorous illustrations in Procreate and was having a heck of a time finding a font that mimic that 1950’s horror-adventure comic book look I desperately needed. I finally stumbled on RetroSupply Co’s “TOOM” download and now I’m able to match that “look” I wanted for my own parody work! By golly, now I’m producing graphic works that look good enough to be banned! Thanks, RetroSupply Co!!! Now, how about helping me out with some of the legal fees I’ve incurred? (Just kiddin’ … but, seriously, thanks for filling a need I didn’t think I ever find.)
- SMShawn M.Verified BuyerReviewingVintage Comic Font PackI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 starsExactly what I was looking for with a little extra on the side.
I’ve been playing around with comic book illustrations for my classes. Halftone brushes and digital distressing for that vintage feel got me part way, but I just couldn’t get the font right. Son of Toom struck the perfect note. The other fonts in the pack completed the chord.
