DC Unveils New, Modern Logo [Updated]

I...I think I may be starting to like this

H O R R I B L E ! ! ! ! HORRIBLE like the New 52!!

@Zeeguy91: I don't need to use anything as an opportunity to bash DC. If you don't think that DC has a branding issue then you are just a fanboy. Plain and simple because there was nothing really wrong about what I said. WB has owned DC for such a long time and has squandered what they have with it. They never ever gave it the attention or dedication as something they own vs. Harry Potter, a franchise that they do not own. Its not even like they have to pay a licensing fee because they own DC.

Marvel's problem right now is that they have movie deals with all sorts of studios but Disney will do more in 5 years than what WB has done in the past 10 years. It is just fact. People do know the "Marvel" brand though and we all have stupid friends that don't know stuff about certain geek cultures. Just because your friend didn't know it doesn't mean that is the norm.

Payno colored the drawing I made:

I hate this. Blah.

Pfffft. I only like the logo for one reason...

Just kidding. The original blue one is less of an eyesore.

Theres also a Nightwing version, haha.

Meh... its kinda boring, but i guess its very ''modern'' looking. I often find that the modern design trend is very clinical, clean... and often rather boring.

Meh...i feel as though they could have come up with something better

I think it's sexy. Reeaaaaeeeelly sexy.

In fact, I want comics just because of that logo.

@TheGoldenOne: @InnerVenom123: Thank you! Glad you guys liked it!

@Billy Batson: Thanks!

Will definitely take getting used to......right now it hurts to look at it....|=^6Also @BatMark_ said:

Hot diggity that's a sexy logo... But why not release it 5 months ago with the start of The New 52?

Bet it would of felt better then. I might not even of noticed...ok, probably wouldn't have now either if I didn't read this article.......

i dont like this because you cant even tell if its a D, u just see a half C. And this makes me feel like the age of print is dieing, welcome the age of digital... maybe im just not ready for that yet

Cute! Makes me like the logo a bit more.

Looks like some kind of law firms emblem. Sad.

Ive just finished doing my own designs, and let me tell you, there much better than these Seirra mists look a'like.

I hate the new logo why!!!!

I agree it'd look better on a digital only release and that they should've introduced this at the start of New 52. It looks nice and modern though, I suppose it doesn't really matter anyway.

Watchmen return ftw.

I like it. It's contempary and subtle. Reckon the new 52! heading will be dropped when the logo changes over - probably why they launched the new 52 with the current logo.

Very cool concept, looks modern and it's not to flashy. However, I dont think this logo fits right for DC comics.

I think its ugly.

CHANGE. It's human nature for us to get all stupid when there is a change. I love the new logo and direction for that matter. It'll look dope one the big screen, it'll look cool on the books. A lot of posts have been a hate-fest as if the logo itself was going to make Batman suck right now and that's not going to happen. I'm not huge Bats fan, but I am smart enough to know it's the best book going right now. Again, this logo isn't going to change 's'. Rob Liefeld's Hawkman may be a different story but again, I'm smart enough as a comic reader and fan to know to not touch that with a 10 foot pole. Unless I am convinced by CV. It's rather funny how the posts begin to settle down.

My point to those of you: Leave it alone. I am past the point in my life now(30) to where I would use the term "Haters" in any sentence other than one like this. But most of the time when someone doesn't like something it's because they're jealous or don't understand what's about to happen or currently unfolding. Or maybe whomever knows something that whomever doesn't. Read the books. Shut up. Enjoy yourself. This is history.

I hope this change doesn't happen or at least they come up with a different design.

damn... am i the only one that actually likes the new logo?

it's like everything new, first hate it and then is a matter of getting used. but what really intrigues me is the number 708 on the cover of Batman.

That's clearly a goof, since the last pre-New 52 issue was Batman #713. If they're resetting the numbering, I think 720 would be correct,

Correct me if I'm wrong, but then doesn't that basically read as "Detective Comics Comics?"

I think it's alright.....I guess anyway.

dont know how to feel about this but looks ok O.o

Eh...

Like the new look, can't wait to get my next comics in this new format

I don't like it.

@bingbangboom: Dude are you seriously just using this as an opportunity to bash DC? Jeez, I bet if you went around to the average moviegoer, the also wouldn't know that Marvel is the home of Spider-Man and the X-Men. And they wouldn't even know who the Avengers are or what company they originated from. They just think of it as another superhero movie. They don't care what company it comes from. I was the same way when I was a kid before I got into comics. I always wondered why in the cartoons I never saw Superman teaming up with the X-Men or Green Lantern and Spider-Man. I didn't know they were produced by different companies.

DC as a name is fine. And believe it or not, Marvel is not as big a name as you would like to believe. Many people I know who aren't into comics don't even know the name. I had to explain to my friend a few months ago that Spider-Man and Superman did NOT inhabit the same universe and that Spider-Man was Marvel and Superman was DC. So, why doesn't Marvel just change its name to Disney Comics? Disney is, after all, a MUCH bigger name

Did I think the logo needed to be changed? Not particularly. But do I like this one? Yeah, sure, it seems pretty cool. And in the end, it doesn't really matter. As long as DC keeps producing quality stories, like they have been with Batman, Wonder Woman, Flash, Animal Man, Green Lantern, etc. in the New 52, I'll keep buying their comics.

Anyway, hasn't DC always made it a habit to put whatever logo they wanted on any comic. I swear I have comics from 2006 that still have the logo from the '70s and '80s, while I also have comics from that same year that have the current logo on them. They could just do the same thing that they've always done. Put this new logo on a third of the comics, put the current one on a second third, and put the old retro logo from the '70s and '80s on the last third.

Dis Crap.

@sora_thekey:

nice :)

I couldnt care less about the logo, like it could be two octopus soldiers humping a cactus and id still buy the books if theyre good.

I think its more a case of the DC mentality at the moment - trying to create a vibe which is conducive to a new reader, while pretty sure the old readers will stick around. I would say it is mostly working too, just as long as those readers aren't reading Hawk and Dove or Men of War.

-.-. But yeah I agree.
