It looks like one Colorforms piece being pulled off another. Just my first impression. smile

It's TOO abstract. neither the D nor the C are clear enough.

My first thought: "Jeepers! Didn't they just get a new logo"

My second thought: "Jeepers! Wouldn't it have made more sense to time this to go with the complete relaunch of their line?"

That was my FIRST thought.

I see the consensus so far is "feh".

As someone said elsewhere, coloring will make a difference. The question is how much.

It looks stupid. It has no panache. I liked the old bullet, and I like the most recent one. But this is just boring.

And isn't saying "DC Comics" redundant, like saying "ATM machine"?

Eh It could be worse. Hopefully it will look a bit better when/if they add color to it.

Gosh, I hope they didn't pay some sort of image consultant / rebranding firm for this... It's blah.

On the positive side, everyone has to agree that the 60s go-go checks are looking pretty good compared to this.
