Madrid ML is a font adapted from the cover of Mujeres Libres #6, where it looks as if someone took the major characteristics of the the old cover font and modernized it. This font retains the short upstroke from the ‘r’, the oddly angled ‘u’, the thickness of the letterforms, and the openness of the ‘e’ but has produced something sharp and almost science fictional with hints of Germanic blackletter. In truth it might have too much character! Perhaps that’s why is it was only used on one single issue, with subsequent issues going back to adaptations of the main title font. Here it’s titled ‘Madrid ML’, because the cover of that issue is about the defense of Madrid (not because it originated from Madrid necessarily).
