Gravitas: elevating goofy letterforms

Here's my start. Take a turn!

I'm only posting because this is a postworthy thread.
This is an O-E ligature from an upcoming font I'm trying
to get out the door by next Monday.

I call this structure "OE wiper".

This one, "OZ wiper", from the land of Oz.

Follow the OZ wiper with an ellipsis and you have yourself a video game!

Is that the video game that Gary Munch invented?

Wow! Those are adorable, a word that I didn't think could apply to ligatures.

My hope is that people will take this chance to play with otherwise fairly useless or ridiculous letterforms... like putting a Comic Sans "m" into a hillside or whatever. ;)
