'''Logo:''' Against a dark background, we zoom out of the Superman logo glowing in Superman's chest, with his eyes shooting red laser beams. The camera flies to Wonder Woman's chest while she crosses her arms to avoid a projectile. Then, a close-up of the Flash runs, and we zoom out to Green Lantern's ring shooting a beam while his fist is clenched. We then zoom out again to Batman flying on a blue-tinted background with flying debris. We zoom out to the debris as it reveals the then-new DC Comics logo, which shows a solid {{color|dodgerblue|blue}} letter "{{color|dodgerblue|'''D'''}}" with its edge peeled to reveal a white "'''C'''" under it, the text "'''DC COMICS'''" below it, and the byline "FROM DC ENTERTAINMENT" below the company name. | '''Logo:''' Against a dark background, we zoom out of the Superman logo glowing in Superman's chest, with his eyes shooting red laser beams.
