    In font awesome icons,using stacking we can combine multiple icons and display it as one icon.

    And use class fa-inverse for an alternative icon color.

    And used fa-inverse in the second example to invert the color of the icon.

    <div>
        <span class='fa-stack fa-lg'>
            <i class='far fa-square fa-stack-2x'></i>
            <i class='fas fa-comments fa-stack-1x'></i>
