If you just want a simple "cartoony" round bomb with a fuse, there's one in Wingdings. You can make a brush out of it very easily:

1. Create a new document in Photoshop.

2. Select the Type tool, then type a capital M. Change the font to Wingdings and the size to something nice and big - say 300 point. The M becomes a bomb shape.

3. Ctrl+click on the thumbnail of the type layer in the Layers palette to select the bomb shape.

4. Select Edit > Define Brush Preset... to make it into a brush.

Don't forget to save it if you want to use it again.
