Thunderbolt specimen from Typogama

A 16-style display family by Michael Parson combining regular, rounded and stencil forms across four numbered subfamilies for varied text layout work.

About

Released in February 2007, Thunderbolt organises its styles through four numbered subfamilies (73–76), each available in Regular and Bold with matching italics. The family mixes conventional letterforms with rounded and stencil variants, giving designers scope to contrast styles within a single coherent system. Language support covers ISO Latin-1, spanning over two dozen Western European and minority languages.

Classification

A mixed display family combining regular, rounded and stencil styles across four subfamilies (73–76), suggesting a structured yet eclectic display system rather than a conventional text or grotesque classification.
