It looks a bit too squeezed then.<br /><br />Personally I don't care too much about what logo is used, but the current cover logo gives more options for choosing the cover art I believe. The previous one, as seen on the Gemstone cover above used a lot of space. Some of the BOOM! covers had it scaled down in a corner and moved around to fit the art, making them look messy in my opinion.Hexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01244652285314152842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5941025762488585925.post-86973212609221785722016-02-08T09:06:20.121-08:002016-02-08T09:06:20.121-08:00You're very close! But as far as I can remembe...You're very close! But as far as I can remember, we actually first used the 1928 logo a couple of months earlier, for "Love Trouble" in WDCS 670. (It might not be instantly obvious because we stacked MICKEY on top of MOUSE there, disrupting the logo's original layout.)<br /><br />At Gemstone in 2006, Art Director Travis Seitler and I had gotten a little tired of new Mickey stories always using the same Mickey logo (or minor variants of it) all the time, so we cleaned up some others, and this was one of several results.<br /><br />The idea of the 1928 logo as a cover logo first came about toward the end of Gemstone—tied to a stillborn plan to revive the shelved MM and DD titles with a slightly new look. When that didn't happen, I just waited around until a later chance came.ramapithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01751343744514656549noreply@blogger.com
