Author's note

Woomble 002 by Eric Wiryanata is a free comic display font with tall, bouncy caps and a hand-drawn looseness. The letters feel soft and rubbery, with narrow round forms and uneven vertical rhythm that gives the whole font a playful, slightly wobbly voice.

It fits kids' book covers, snack packaging, poster headlines, party invitations, and simple logo work where a free font needs a friendly homemade tone. The stretched rounds and springy caps also work well for title cards, short banner text, and monograms, because the letters keep their charm even when used one word at a time.

Woomble was taken from a band frontman.

The design did not originate from him.

The second version was a modification of the original version.
