For those of you who don’t know already, Dexter is a highly controversial, Emmy award-winning TV series with a serial killer as its protagonist. The acclaimed series is broadcast by Showtime, a subscription based cable channel owned by CBS Corporation.
The Font Feed blog did a very entertaining and thorough analysis of the various typographic elements in the ads.
Snip from the article:
The mock magazine covers are incredibly well crafted and look very convincing. Faithfully recreating the magazine logos and finding the correct typefaces for the cover titles must have been a difficult task, yet most of the covers make you look twice before you realize that the logo actually spells out “Dexter” instead of the magazine’s original name. They are a real treat to discover and very funny, especially with the “slasher” references in the titles and some of the cover images.
