* When Genesis Entertainment was fully bought by [[New World Entertainment]] in 1994, the byline "{{color|silver|{{Font|Serif|A NEW WORLD ENTERTAINMENT COMPANY}}}}" appears below the logo.

"GENESIS" shines in with a distorted bell-like effect. This jingle was composed by Karissa A. Timmons, an employee at Genesis.

* Season 1 episodes of both ''Iron Man'' and ''Fantastic Four'' (1994) begin the theme over the [[Marvel Entertainment Group]] and [[Marvel Studios|Marvel Films]] logos; on episode 10 of season 1 of the former show, it abruptly switches from the Late 1990 music to the July 1990 music.

* This logo was last seen on ''Real Stories of the Highway Patrol'' on H&I and syndicated prints of ''Tales from the Crypt'' on the now-defunct Chiller network, both of which had either the 1995 or 2013 [[20th Television]] logos following right after.
** It may also be preserved on VHS
* It was also seen on the ''Iron Man'' episode "The Origin of Iron Man: Part 2" when Disney XD last aired it; most other season 1 episodes (and season 1 episodes of ''Fantastic Four'' (1994)) were plastered by the 1996 Saban Entertainment/International logo and Netflix prints removed all the original logos for the 2009 [[Marvel Animation]] logo instead.

Visuals: Over a space background, there are legions of shooting stars. From the right, a giant "G" (looking as if carved from a block of ice) zooms out, turning at an angle towards the screen. As shooting stars fly by the "G", it sparkles, and turns into a TV-tube ice shape with the "G" appearing as a cutout with small streaks flying from the left. Below the "G" tube, a bunch of sparkles form the words:
