I am really enjoying the posts in the Publisher Logos thread... so why not a Comics Title Logo thread, to show off and discuss funnybook logos that really made an impression. I have always thought this was one of the best, most alluring logos for a comic, ever!   So what logos really tickle your fancy? Hand drawn, typographic, knockout, part of the illustration? Let's see 'em! |

A "cross-thread" logo if you will, I always thought this was cool (stuff like Blue Ribbon Digest too):  Loved the "cutout" of Epic Illustrated as well:  |

My favorite Batman logo.... Yes, it breaks it into two words.. but I love it anyway! As a kid, my mom made me a Batman cape, complete with this logo on the back!  My least favorite... booooo! It has no rhyme or reason, and looks amateurish to me. But, hey, I've only been a graphic designer for a hundred years... what do I know?  |

Star Wars... such a great logo that the comic version was adopted by Lucasfilm as the official logo for the film. Yep, whoever did the logo for the Marvel production staff set the standard for how to represent ALL of Star Wars licensing... the big innovation was linking the ST and RS letters (R and S were not linked until a few issues in, tho). Lucasfilm took the logo and refined it for use on the posters, toys, posters, underoos, etc.   |

My favorite version of the Legion of Super Heroes logo... my favorite cover, as well.  |

I remembered another I like.  To me, the part above the "A" looks like Beast's hairstyle/hair points, and then the extended part of the "The" and "T" on each ends are like his hands, as if he (the logo) is leaping towards. But this could all just be my imagination haha. I feel that it was intentional though. |

The classic Amazing Spider-Man logo, I've always loved all the webbing around it:  The early Green Lantern logo:  And similar much later on (I think the prior one is a bit more striking):  |

I love that logo! But, yeah, there's a sort of scary intensity to the Golden Age Green Lantern logo that just screams raw power! ASM logo is awesome, in all its incarnations, but I, too, love the webbing! |

Another cool logo... Micronauts! And, again, Marvel improved upon the existing toy version!  Here's the toy packaging version...  |
