I have absolutely no talent when it comes to drawing. In fact, I mailed in one of those art school tests back in the ’80s but apparently my spyrographs weren’t exactly what they were looking for.
It’s a good thing there are more talented artists than me in this world to give us things like cartoons and comic books. I do “marvel” at even the simplest of creations like superhero logos and special fonts so I was excited to find a combination of both! I love Photoshop as much as the next guy so these “dingbat” fonts (okay, now they’re just rubbing it in) are a huge shortcut for illustratively-challenged people like myself to get their geek on.
Here are several free fonts from Dafont.com that you can use to nerd up your blog or social media profile. Just keep in mind these are intended for personal use. If you want to use them commercially, please do the right thing and send a donation to the author on the host site.

I Love ‘80s
I’ve downloaded several essential ‘80s fonts in the past, but this one has a huge variety of characters, people, and logos.
Practically every meaningful comic book and cartoon logo in one font.
Shadows and illustrations of characters and some great bloody handprints.
Over 90 total blockbuster and cult classic movie logos.
The gang’s all here!
OH YEEEEEAH!!!! Some old school wrestlers in this collection I hadn’t thought of in years. And if this isn’t enough, check out these pro wrestling logos.
Some great illustrations and also some fun parody logos.
All the ships, characters, and logos needed to conquer the galaxy.
These go from present day all the way back to the beginning of gaming.
If you want something a little more specific, check out the Simpsons Treehouse of Horror font.
If I missed one of your favorites, search the dingbat archive at Dafont. More pop culture fonts available like Futurama, Scooby-Doo, Space Invaders, Star Trek TNG, Pixar, Harry Potter, X-men, Family Guy, Lost, or Super Mario Brothers.
