>DC Entertainment revealed a new logo today, as the "new identity and logo for its iconic DC brand." The logo replaces the opening page logo they launched just ahead of the New 52 reboot in 2011.

>The logo doesn't feature the word "comics," mirroring Marvel's approach to creating a single logo to use across multiple media. This isn't the first DC logo to remove the "comics," though, so it's not exactly a sea change: the iconic "DC bullet," which was used from 1976 until 2005, didn't feature the word. In fact, no logo from 1970 until 2011 used "comics."

>The logo bears a striking resemblance to the clean, simple 1972 design, albeit with a font that's more reminiscent of the '76 or 2005 reinventions.

>The new DC branding will be introduced immediately on various digital platforms, including DC websites, social media channels, DC All Access webseries, and DC All Access app and will continue to rollout worldwide across all DC content and products.

>The new identity and logo were developed in partnership with Pentagram, the world’s largest independent design consultancy.

Looks like a generic football team font in the middle of a circle.

In other words, shit.

Well, since theres constantly a company war between DC and Marvel, it kinda makes sense to embrace the "team" mentality.
>>
The colour is clever because it will be visible on most DC comic booc covers

>>270290
agree'd
only a matter of time until "DC" leatherman jackets are available for too much money.

>>270279
I just really hope they stop changing their logo, its just keep them off from having a timeless identity

Good?

I agree

I dig it, honestly.

It's alright, but I actually liked the "peel" logo.

>>270281
I know it got a lot of shit when it first came out but I actually really like the 2012 logo. It manages to be classy without some pretentious, straw-grabbing explanation and evokes the image of a comic book more than any of the others.

Don't like the new one, but I can at least see how it being a return to the older collegiate motif fits with their current projects.

It is nice to see they took a turn back to an older design. The lst two designs were annoyingly plastic and artificial. This definately looks better.
