Name names if you know of any fonts with an exciting, contrasting question mark. Nothing stiff...flowing. Far from Helvetica's. No need for serifs.

correction:
They can be serif fonts, since there are good question marks available in serif faces.

Gill Sans has some nice question marks. Quadraat too.
And there's Australis, but I guess it's not for sale yet.

This is from an old letterpressed book.

The "reverse S" of Futura Book.
Another interesting idea: the dot and the vertical stroke on an extreme side axis, as in Britannic.

The Hoefler Type Foundry's Gestalt has a unique question mark.
