Originally designed for Microsoft Bob, missed that deadline, came out in the Win95 Plus Pack.
The working name was "Comic Book". Probably because it is based on multiple comic books, primarily The Dark Knight Returns. I've also seen Watchmen mentioned in other interviews as a primary source for the shapes though he doesn't mention it in his page on the font.
