Is it correct to say handsomer?
It could be that, because we don’t say words like “fearsomer” or “tiresomer”, more handsome sounds normaller than handsomer. However, as I’ve just illustrated, this idiosyncrasy isn’t necessarily constrained to words ending with -some, because words like normal don’t add an -er, either: more normal is more correct.
