I often, on a geological scale, ask myself, why are there so few typography-themed rock musicals

It would be great; music by Ace of Baseline. The female lead would be Jane Fonta. The villain, of course, would be Comic Sans his sidekick Hans Grosse. Sans’ theme would be I Shot the Serif. The Word gets wrapped up in the Art dimension, and a TeXnician is called upon to bring harmony to the page. Fonta would rendezvous with the male lead, some typecast male hero, in a generic chicken-serving factory owned by Kerning Sanders, hoping he would bring them together. Fonta and the grotesque male lead would duet Ligature a Prayer. Grosse would barge in and say his only line, “Gutenberg!”

I should make a Kickstarter.
