I still miss the circle and stars. That'll always be my favorite logo.
the other day i learned that one was done by milton glaser
why they ever gave it up is beyond me
they got rid of it because they tried to sue the DC shoe company for having a similar logo without realizing they didn't have a copyright on it. the lawsuit backfired and they ended up having to pay the other company to keep using the swish logo, so they just got rid of it and made sure to copyright the peel when they debuted it
Reading New Frontier for the first time. It's pretty damn fantastic. About halfway through.
I'm saddened by Cooke's passing, though I haven't read anything of his before now. But this seems like a decent way to pay a tiny little tribute.

You mean they didn't own the trademark. That logo is a trademark.
Humor can be dissected as a frog can, but dies in the process.
It looks like Leto Joker and TDKR Joker had a baby
I don't hate it, namely because it avoids the many pitfalls of Leto Joker

StraightziHere we may reign secure, and in my choice,To reign is worth ambition though in HellRegistered Userregular
Actually what it really makes me think of is that time that DC was allegedly courting Tilda Swinton to play the Joker
Regardless, I think the white suit is a great look for the Joker
I know that the purple tailcoat is considered to be pretty iconic for him, but he actually changes costumes fairly regularly, and I'd love it if something else could become equally iconic
All white with purple to serve as a direct contrast to Batman's all black with yellow is a great choice

I don't like that joker.

I heard Titans Hunt ended and I was curious to know if they explained...
...how Donna could be part of a Titans team years ago since her N52-self was apparently born recently. Also, I heard they sorta teased pre-Flashpoint Wally at the end?
A preview for one of DC's new Hanna-Barbera titles, Scooby Apocalypse, was placed up on CBR. I'll just post it here for those curious to see just how reimagined Mystery Inc. got.

I mean, I am not a big fan of Scooby or anything...but what the fuck?

The other, less completely ridiculously insane, reveals:
The original JSA is back, there are three different Jokers running around and original flavor ginger Wally West is back (likely in addition to New 52 Wally)

Not since the Super Mario Brothers movie have I seen a work of such timeless, baffling insanity
It is so stupid and hilarious and out of NOWHERE that fuck it, let this shit play out I want to see where this goes
It probably helps that
I don't love Watchmen a whole bunch (i don't think it is bad at all and have enjoyed reading it) but it isn't a seminal classic for me so I don't really give a shit I suppose it they bring it back again
That Rebirth thing is just so.... I don't know rd is for it. Ironic, perhaps?
It is the logical endpoint of DC's thought process!
You probably want to spoil that. Anyway I'm thinking
this was more of a order from up top. Somebody with no comic knowledge asked why the heck they wernt making watchmen comics.
Nah. This was all Johns. He has talked about how Rebirth is his baby and he is the mastermind behind it and it is also his last comic for a while so he wanted to go out with a bang.
Besides, they did make Watchmen comics and they didn't set the world on fire.

Solid chance this is Joker's Rebirth redesign
Although it kind of reminds me of Flashpoint Joker

Like SS is just straight up the movie team with everyone getting movie style costume changes
Ain't no way they're not also going to throw Joker in early on

Five years. That's my bet, too
If and/or when this line fails the live up to whatever absurd expectations they have, maybe they'll start looking for the actual root cause
