While some anecdotal evidence and studies suggest that Comic Sans (regular weight) might sometimes be perceived as easier to read by individuals with dyslexia due to its distinct, less uniform letter shapes, the *italic bold* variant is unlikely to offer such benefits. The increased visual clutter from the bolding and the slant from italicization can actually worsen readability, making it potentially less accessible than the regular style for those with reading disabilities, rather than more.
