Boy, they’re everywhere. One of your neighbors is probably one of them, Freaking super-heroes (TM, ©, ®, SM blah blah blah) are more ubiquitous in cities these days than Simon Cowell is on talent shows. Notice how that guy on the subway—the one with the boy scout haircut?—see how he keeps his shirt buttoned all the way up? He’s not sweating either… that’s ’cause he’s probably from some dead planet that exploded twenty years ago. His REAL parents wrapped him in blankets and, when he turned 18, his Ma on Earth turned those same blankets into Long Underwear for her foster son. He’s probably wearing his long underwear right now. That’s why he’s smiling at you through his horn rimmed glasses. He thinks you don’t know. Thinks he’s special. Thinks he’s a super-hero (TM, ©, ®, SM blah blah blah). Ain’t that Super?

Between twilight and daybreak it is said that the dark side of the human psyche eclipses the sun that shines from the depths of our souls. Certainty turns to doubt, clarity becomes confusion, man turns into wolf, the dead wake, vampires seduce the young are restless and milk boils over on the stove.

Those that seek only to bathe in the light of a romantic new moon often end their tragic lives soaked in nothing other than their own blood, and the milk spilt on the stovetop has no one left to cry over it. There are fifty shades of grey during those hours after sunset and I think just as many in my porridge this morning.

Yes, okay, I admit it, I spoiled the milk! This porridge tastes like it was left in a graveyard overnight. Death warmed over. Gothic and lumpy. Just like the two weights of this font.

It is NOT the END, my friend. Beyond the Saga, beyond the Hype, Beyond the expectations of marketing executives and studio shareholders lie prequels AND sequels. It has been said that every journey has a first step as THE STORY BEGINS, and every Generation has a Legend, a Story, a Franchise and an inevitable descent into mindless exploitation where THE STORY ENDS. It’s true, all of it!

Chunky Nouveau JNL was inspired by a circa-1928 water applied decal for the Top Most Insulated Jug.
The plump, rounded hand lettering of the brand name was given a slightly thicker treatment to create a more poster-oriented display design.

Chunky Nouveau JNL is available in both regular and oblique versions.

After eleven years and millions of character combinations, scientists at the Comicraft Alphabet Genome research facility in the Mojave Desert, under the direction of the genetartist known only as ’Ladronn,’ have finally determined the DNA sequence responsible for ensuring a good eye for design. DESIGNERGENES has been modified by our genetic engineers to guarantee high performance display lettering every time. Thanks to the selfless sacrifice of Comicraft volunteers, various mutations of this font have been thoroughly tested in the pages of UNCANNY X-MEN, NEW X-MEN and HIP FLASK: UNNATURAL SELECTION and can now be introduced to human society at large.
