Posthumous is out now! A variable blackletter script with gloopy round corners and lots of OpenType features, this type family has been such a labor of love. I'm so excited to share it with you all!

The word “Posthumous,” written in the typeface Posthumous, appears six times. Each word is in a different weight of the font, going from Regular at the top down to Black at the bottom. The text is in a cream color on a dark gray background, and at the bottom is a small teal-colored leafy flourish.
The full alphabet is written out in Posthumous—capital A, lowercase a, space, capital B, lowercase b, and so on. After the alphabet are the numbers 0-9 and a few symbols: an ampersand, at symbol, pound sign, exclamation mark, and question mark. The background is teal and the text is white. At the bottom is a small leafy flourish in a dark gray color.
Light gray text demonstrating what Posthumous looks like without a certain OpenType feature immediately precedes cream text demonstrating the font with that OpenType feature. The elements included are Trailing Caps, where capitals are replaced with their non-swash variant in all-caps contexts; Auto Arrows, where a hyphen and greater than (or less than) symbol are replaced with a unicode arrow glyph; Stylistic Set 01, which removes all swashes; and Stylistic Set 02, which removes the connections between letters to form a disconnected, more traditional blackletter style. The background is a dark gray color, and at the bottom is a small leafy flourish in a teal color.
