What's another nice, plump font (typeface) like it?
Is this Cooper Black?https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Garfield_logo.JPG
it looks plumper than the regular Cooper Black.
There tens of thousands of fonts/names, and only some standardization of terminology ("sans-serif" fonts are without thin lines at the end of the
major strokes, "bold" means thicker stokes, "outline" means no filled
interior, etc.).
I would call the first font a "fat font" (they look fat), a "balloon
font" (they look inflated), or a "cooper font" (because of the barrel
shape).
The Garfield logo does looks like a type of cooper font with negative
kerning (space removed between characters to get them to overlap). The Garfield logo was probably specially designed by an artist.
Search the Internet and you should find several other examples of "fat
fonts". If you want the overlapping letter look, see if you can put in negative kerning.
ObPuzzle:
Since "serifs" look like wings, is the word related to "seraphs" (angels)?
