So I'm in the preliminary stages of a little fan film project, and would like to do some opening credits in the style of the old Batman series. I'm guessing the original credits were done by hand as needed, but thought somebody might have created an homage font or that something similar existed out there. Anybody know of something like this?<br> <br> Here's some samples:<br> The top of <a href="http://aa.1asphost.com/CTVA/US/SciFi/Batman.htm">this page</a> has examples from the standard opening of the show.<br> <br> And <a href="http://www.1966batfan.com/stanleyralph24.jpg">here's one</a> from the beginning of the episode (after the opening credits). It looks slightly more refined, and I'm thinking it might actually be closer to a standard font. (Maybe.)<br> <br> I've tried Identifont and come up empty. Am also planning to hit some Batman fan forums, but thought I'd start here with my AskMeFi buddies. tag:ask.metafilter.com,2008:site.84057 Tue, 19 Feb 2008 13:35:01 -0800 adamwest batman credits font fonts NewGear
