The “a” is too fat, the “e” is way too pointy, the “b” is off, the “u” is too linear. For starters... But mainly the “e” in Babe is way way off. So let’s start there.

I have to agree. The whole signature looks labored and the “be” looks terrible. The “e” has no flair and the whole signature lacks speed and flow. It wouldn’t surprise me if that ball was post 48 as well.
