Design & features
Wuhan Hero blends the geometry of Hei with the stroke shapes of Song: a slightly wide face, tight centre and low centre of gravity give it weight. Its clean chamfers echo the eaves of the Yellow Crane Tower, and the vertical strokes taper like the piers of the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge; the hooked endings are dramatic.
Its Latin companion uses a slab-serif design that matches the Chinese part's sense of history and strength.
Best uses
If you are working on brand slogans or headline captions on app screenshots, Wuhan Hero is an easy pick, and it is also worth trying for e-commerce promo banners. Heavy headline type pops most on light backgrounds or solid colour blocks.

FAQ
Is Wuhan Hero free for commercial projects?
Free for personal and commercial use. For long-term uses such as logos or trademarks, it is worth confirming with the author or publisher.
Does Wuhan Hero support Simplified Chinese, or are characters missing?
According to its release notes, Wuhan Hero supports Simplified Chinese and Latin letters. Its Latin companion uses a slab-serif design that matches the Chinese part's sense of history and strength.
Is Wuhan Hero good for body text?
Not really. Wuhan Hero is built for headlines; its strong personality gets crowded in long paragraphs. Use Wuhan Hero for titles and leave body text to a neutral face such as HONOR Sans.
