Alphabet of caught fish

Exclamation Point, from Exclamation Point, Comma and Question Mark

Happiness is a Warm Gun
Matthias Ernstberger, 2005
Poster was part of a series documenting punctuation symbols, where each symbols was celebrated on a poster created by a different designer. Ernstberger was given the apostrophe, whose job it is to eliminate letters. Hence he chose to represent this with a revolver.
