If you can understand the words of Wookie or the tribal tongues of the Ewok, you're sure to love the Fabian Gonzalez 'Star Wars Alphabet' that is actual lettering created out of the iconic movie characters.
Gonzalez designed the poster, available to be purchased from Society6, by taking cartoonized visual representations of the characters made famous in the Star Wars saga and morphing them into an identifiable font. Appropriately, Princess Leia stands proud as the letter 'P,' a Stormtrooper is curled into an 'S' and the long and large ears of the wise Yoda help comprise the 'Y.'
The Fabian Gonzalez 'Star Wars Alphabet' is an absolutely innovative and creative typeface tribute to a galaxy that now seems that much closer.
