(November 5, 1981-1983)

Logo: We first see a space background. Suddenly, a white oval is seen expanding, possibly to look like a shock wave from the distant explosion, which suddenly fills the entire screen. After a second, it disappears into the space background again, with sparks that turn into the logo (a trail of a C). We then see a white/blue laser that form the company's name in ITC Avant Garde Gothic, and an orange laser at the bottom forming the Chinese characters.

Technique: The explosion wave, formation of the logo.

Music/Sounds: We hear a dark drone at the beginning. A loud "WHOOSH" is heard with the shock wave, followed by an overly dramatic fanfare.

Availability: Appears in The Imp, Nomad and Marianna.

Legacy: This could be seen as a startling logo due to the explosion effect and dramatics.
