Love our popular TOOM font? Take your work further with Christopher Sperandio's Vintage Comics 4 Font Pack that includes Son of TOOM, Bride of TOOM, Werwolf, and DERAILED!
Each font in the pack is designed to expand your comic lettering capabilities. Let's break down each of the fonts.
Son of TOOM. The handmade, low-key riff on its namesake. Son of TOOM compliments the original TOOM with a lighter touch and a bit more lividity.
Bride of TOOM. The meaty soulmate of TOOM. This font is excellent for headlines and brings emphasis and intensity to dialogue.
Werwolf. Created from antique wood type purchased in Leipzig in 2019. The wood type was printed, cleaned up in Photoshop, and converted into a vintage comic font perfect for stories of horror, mystery, and strange occurrences.
DERAILED! The spiritual essence of dark Italian comics produced in Italy forty or fifty years ago. Called “Fumetti neri,” these comics were stark black and white and featured vampires, thieves, and killers. DERAILED! is best used like truffle oil — a little goes a long way.

I have been using it for my independent comic book and it rocks! Highly recommend it. It gives you so much to work with and experiment with!
- ACAndrew C.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 starsDerailed, Werewolf, and a couple Tooms!
I’m loving these fonts. So far I’ve used Derailed to design a slightly unhinged t-shirt. Looking forward to seeing what other madness I can create.

The son of toom is the font I have been using the most (so far) from this pack and I absolutely love it!
It fits really well into the retro vibe I go for in my artwork and it just FEELS right!
- RWRyan W.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 starsWerwolf? There… there wolf. There castle.
A perfect bullseye of the aesthetic I was looking for, but struggling to find. And when I say struggling, I mean I've been trying to capture this look for nearly 20 years -- so many memories of old newsprint and blurry ink, beautifully rendered. Many thanks to you.

I used the 4 fonts in a recent project, and I'm so happy with how it turned out! As you can see in the picture and in the video, I used Son of Toom and Bride of Toom for the speech bubble, Derailed! for the up text and Werwolf! for "Christmas". In addition to the textures (which also come from RetroSupply and are just awesome) I added some effects to the texts. A before/after is more meaningful.
In short, I'm won over!
