Apoc by Matthieu Salvaggio is a thin and sharp humanist typeface with aggressive serifs. The author mentioned that he had drawn inspiration from a lettering on an ancient cover of the final book of the New Testament, the Book of Revelation (which is Apocalypse in French). Its expressive counterforms were used to design the wildest style of the family, Apoc Revelations.
