Oni Press New Look

  Independent comic book publisher Oni Press revealed a new look today.

“Yep, for the first time since we started publishing in 1997, we’ve done a complete overhaul of our logo,” Oni Press editor-in-chief James Lucas Jones wrote to the company’s creator base via email. “The original Oni Press logo was designed by the amazing Dave Gibbons and based on a small trinket that publisher Joe Nozemack’s brother had brought back with him from a trip to Japan. It’s an iconic image that has served us well for a long time. We can’t thank Dave enough for contributing such a significant piece of our company’s brand and identity.”

  The new logo will debut on one of Oni Press’ newest books: Brian Churilla’s The Secret History of D.B. Cooper. The first issue ships to comic book stores on March 14, 2012. The revamped Oni Press icon will appear on all books following, and there will also be merchandise and promotional items featuring the image available at upcoming conventions.

 “This is only the beginning,” says Director of Marketing Cory Casoni. “We have plenty of big announcements and new publishing initiatives on the way. It would be easy for us to rest on our laurels, but instead we’re going to make the next couple of years our biggest yet.”
