James Gunn on the logic behind DC Studios' new logo
Director James Gunn took to TikTok and explained the reason behind the logo. He further noted the importance of unifying the distinct worlds of DC film, TV, animation, and gaming under a single, recognizable logo. This new logo is meant to honor the legacy of DC Comics, its artists and writers, and the passionate fanbase. The previous logo was designed by Milton Glaser and was used from 1977 to 2005.
"Peter and I knew that we needed one logo, that would bring us all together. We knew that it needed to be something that was immediately recognizable- something that honored the comics, the legendary artists and writers who inspired everything that we do, including our own Jim Lee, of course. Not to mention, the generations of passionate and extraordinary DC fans." wrote Gunn according to ComicBookMovie.com
