MIB2 Font
Author's note
MIB2, credited to Daniel U. Thibault and Burger King Corporation, is a free abstract dingbat font built from sweeping, ink-like forms. Its symbols combine bulbous curves, tapered points, and open white channels, producing silhouettes that suggest both calligraphy and stylized emblems.
Packaging offers a natural home for these fluid marks, especially on food and drink products seeking an unconventional graphic signature. They could also shape music merchandise, event posters, and digital graphics, where the curved symbols can repeat as patterns or become the central illustrated emblem rather than serving as ordinary text.

Description
MIB2 2002 1.00
A freeware alien font based on that used by Burger King for its Men In Black II promotion.
I haven't seen the movie yet as I write this, but I could not find any trace of the glyphs
on the official web site (including the trailers). I'm pretty sure the font was Burger King's
idea. Each of the BK toys comes with a "decoder", so the characters A..Z are "canon".
BK's web site uses the glyphs in its Flash animations; an extra characters appears, which I've mapped to the hyphen. The glyphs vary somewhat in appearance between the BK Flash animations and the toy decoder; in any case I've standardised the sub-glyphs used in the font (albeit with varying rotations) so the glyphs are again a little different.
Glyphs a..z are mirror images of A..Z. The digits, accented characters, punctuation, etc. are my invention.
