Hopeless is the title of a wallpaper poster made by Austrian graphic designer Arno Kathollnig.

The speech bubble on the sad woman’s image – a riff on Roy Lichtenstein’s Hopeless painting from 1963, which in turn is derived from a panel drawn by Tony Abruzzo for the story “Run For Love!” in Secret Hearts no. 83 (November 1962) – uses HVD Comic Serif (HvD Fonts). Text on the right side is in Bumper, the extra-heavy-duty industrial sans serif also made by HvD Fonts, while smaller speech bubbles on the right side of it are using Comic Sans.
