These superhero typographic posters were created by Matthew Olin, a Minnesota-based designer, for his MFA Thesis exhibition. I'm a comic nerd, so this appeals to me on a number of levels, but it's also very fascinating in a typographical sense. Each poster is of a style of font (serif, sans-serif, etc.), and each style has been given a set of "personality traits." These traits were then matched to a comic book hero, which is created using that style of font. It's an amazingly in-depth body of work, as he had to study each style and discover these traits that make them what they are. Bravo, good sir. Bravo.
