* In ''[[Asterix]]'', the language of the Goths is represented by a Gothic font, Greeks speak in an angular font resembling the Greek alphabet, and Egyptian speech bubbles contain hieroglyph-style rebuses (even for onomatopoeia). When Obelix repeats a phrase in Egyptian, it looks like a shakily-drawn stick figure.
** ''Asterix and the Cauldron'' featured a Roman tax gatherer whose rectangular speech bubbles resembles modern tax forms, complete with check boxes.
** In ''[[Asterix]] and the Roman Agent'', anyone falling under the discord-sowing powers of Convulvus (the titular agent) gets a speech bubble tinted [[Green-Eyed Monster|green]].
** When our heroes complain to the camp cook about the army food in ''Asterix the Legionary'', the cook responds with mocking sweetness, before yelling his head off. While he's being nice, his speech bubbles are filled with smiling suns, flowers, singing birds and music notes.
* Nearly every important character in ''[[Watchmen]]'' has either a different color/style speech bubble, or a different font. Sometimes both.
