The Question Mark Latin for question, quaesti? may be where the origin of the Question Mark can be found.
Whenever our Latin writing friends wanted to indicate a question or query, they would add quaesti? to the end of the sentence.
Lacking a sense of elegance, and not to mention taking up quite a bit of space, quaesti? was abbreviated to QO. This worked wonders for the scribes as their jobs became a little easier and they could produce texts quicker and have more space to work with.
But for some, QO seemed like a word with missing letters. To counter this, the O would be placed beneath the Q, rather than next to it — a clever little move that turned QO from an abbreviated word, to a glyph unto its self.
Being that this was now a sort of symbol that was always drawn by hand, the evolution of it to the question mark we know today is fairly evident (and pretty damn cool).

Today is the day that Marty McFly arrived in the future after hitting 88mph in a pimped out Delorean in 1985. (Does that make you feel old? Or just really futuristic?)
