Astro/Aurebesh from David Occhino
To celebrate May the Fourth, we have a pair of Star Wars themed fonts for you. Astro is a bold sans serif display typeface inspired by one of the most popular space fantasy films of all time. This special edition of the font includes capital letters drawn in the classic style of the original 1977, 1980 and 1983 films and lowercase letters featuring the updated letterforms from the Special Edition films in 1997 and 1998.
Its companion font is Aurebesh, which is one of the alphabetic language systems from the Star Wars universe. This version of the Aurebesh font was designed by Stephen Crane with additional characters by David Occhino.
Astro is available from $30 and Aurebesh is free for personal use.
