Visuals: In an office setting is a bottle filled with scarlet ink. A black label covers the bottom half, containing the company name in Impact, gold, and a stacked format. "INK" has a bottom white gradient. A split-second before the logo ends, a hammer swings down and smashes the bottle, causing the ink to spread everywhere, including covering up the whole screen.

October 2001-2002: None.

Original airings use a generic theme and a voice over.

Availability: It debuted on The Strip and was later seen on Smallville, the 2006 TV pilot of Aquaman, and Charlie's Angels (2011).

2nd Logo (November 15, 2015-)

+'''Visuals:''' In an office setting is a bottle filled with {{color|orangered|scarlet}} ink. A black label covers the bottom half, containing the company name in Impact, gold, and a stacked format. "'''INK'''" has a bottom white gradient. A split-second before the logo ends, a hammer swings down and smashes the bottle, causing the ink to spread everywhere, including covering up the whole screen.
-'''Nicknames:''' "Orange-Red Ink", "Ink Bottle Gets the Banhammer", "'''SPLAT!'''"
+'''Variant:''' The logo exists in both a <u>fullscreen</u> and <u>widescreen</u> format.
-'''Logo:''' In an office setting, at the forefront, we see a bottle filled with {{color|orangered|orange red}} ink in it labeled:
-<center><big>{{color|gold|'''MILLAR'''}}</big><br>
-<big>{{color|gold|'''GOUGH'''}}</big><br><big>{{color|gold|'''INK'''}}</big></center><br>
+'''Technique:''' Live-action.
-in an Impact font colored {{Color|yellow|yellow}}, with only the bottom half of "<big>{{color|gold|'''INK'''}}</big>" in white/{{color|silver}}. After a while, a hammer (which, if you look very closely, can be seen in the reflection on the bottle) swings down and smashes the bottle, causing the {{Color|orangered|orange red}} ink in it to fly everywhere and covering up the screen.
+'''Audio:''' It varies, but they usually end with a glass breaking sound.
-'''Variants:'''
+* October 12, 1999: After the ending theme of the show, a splattering sound is heard.
-* On the short-lived show ''The Strip'', 2003 DVD releases and [[Channel 4|Channel 4]] and The WB and [[E4]] UK airings of season 1 or 4:3 prints of all episodes of ''Smallville'', there is an open-matte version of this logo. Sometimes, there is an cropped 4:3 version of the logo.
+* 1999-2000: The ending theme of the show.
+* October 2001-2002: None.
+* 2001-2002 (''Smallville'' episodes "X-Ray" and "Hug"): Entirely silent.
+* February-May 2002: An odd, three-note piano tune composed by Mark Snow.
+* September 2002-November 10, 2011: A reverberating cartoon ditty again composed by Mark Snow.
+* Original airings use a generic theme and a voice over.
+'''Availability:''' It debuted on ''The Strip'' and was later seen on ''Smallville'', the 2006 TV pilot of ''Aquaman'', and ''Charlie's Angels'' (2011).
-'''FX/SFX:''' The hammer smashing the ink bottle, the ink spreading. It's all live-action.
-'''Music/Sounds:''' Here are the main music versions:
-* 1999: After the closing theme of the show plays, there is a splattering sound.
-* 2001-2002: Just a sound of the bottle breaking. The bottle suddenly breaking by a hammer with no warning can be jarring to many people, especially after the long silence during both this logo and the one before such as the ''Tollin/Robbins Productions'' logo.
-* On the ''Smallville'' season 1 episodes "X-Ray" and "Hug", the bottle breaking sound is absent.
-* Early 2002: An 3-note odd, short creepy piano tune with an eerie sound effect.
-* 2002-2011: A reverberating cartoon ditty.
-* On early season 2 episodes of ''Smallville'', the reverberating cartoon ditty is somewhat slightly quieter before the bottle breaking sound appears.
-All music versions ended with the bottle breaking sound, sometimes louder.
-'''Availability:''' First seen on the short-lived show ''The Strip''. Also seen on ''Smallville'', the 2006 pilot of ''Aquaman (also named Mercy Reef)'' and the 2011 version of ''Charlie's Angels''. Look for the rare print logo on the back of the ''Smallville'' DVD/Blu-ray cover. The 4:3 version was also seen, but the 2006 pilot of ''Aquaman'' was included as a bonus on the Blu-ray release of ''Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths''. This can also be seen on ''Smallville'' on The C&W. This can also be seen on the 2011 version of ''Charlie's Angels'' on the CTV Throwback. This may also be seen on the 2003 DVD releases, Channel 4, The WB, or E4 airings of season 1 of ''Smallville''. This can also be seen on The WB airings of sometimes season 2 of ''Smallville'', which uses the 4:3 cropped version of this logo.
-'''Legacy:''' While the sound of the bottle breaking can be startling for some people (especially the version without music where an hammer breaks a bottle with no warning, which could be probably jarring to many people), some people may find this logo pretty funny, and it may be favored for fans of ''Smallville''. For the sound of the bottle breaking, the bottle breaking with no warning can be jarring to many people. For the music version, it may slightly be less scary with the music playing. For another music version, the piano tune can be creepy.
