Sochinyala specimen from ParaType

A single-weight comic lettering typeface drawn from 1970s–90s speech-bubble conventions, notable for its lack of perspective distortion and its extended Cyrillic support.

About

Designed by Namik Mardakhaev in 2025, Sochinyala avoids the angled perspective typical of comic fonts, giving it a more measured quality alongside its casual, sprawling strokes. The typeface covers basic Latin and Cyrillic alongside key extended Cyrillic characters, making it accessible for a broader range of Slavic languages. Its single Regular weight suits illustration work and graphic contexts where an informal, hand-drawn tone is needed.

Classification

A hand-lettered comic script style, designed to mimic the informal lettering found in speech bubbles. Categorised as display due to its specialised, illustrative character rather than general-purpose use.
