'''Logo:''' In an office, we see a bottle with {{color|orangered|orange red}} ink inside of it labeled the stacked words reading with the company name in an Impact font colored in a {{color|gold}}-white gradient. After one of the music variants are played, a hammer (which, if you look very, very closely, you can see a hammer falling down, as seen in the reflection on the bottle) falls down on top and breaks the bottle, causing the ink in it to spread everywhere, covering up the whole screen.
'''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.


'''Variant:''' The logo exists in both a <u>fullscreen</u> and <u>widescreen</u> format.
'''Variants:'''


'''Technique:''' Live-action.
* There exists an open-matte version of the logo. This can be seen on 2003 DVD releases, Channel 4 and E4 airings of season 1 or 4:3 prints of all episodes of ''Smallville'' and the short-lived series ''The Strip''.
* A letterbox version exists.
* On Blu-ray prints of ''Smallville'' and the 2011 ''Charlie's Angels'' revival, this logo is shown, but in high quality.


'''Audio:''' It varies, but they usually end with a glass breaking sound.
'''FX/SFX:''' Entirely live-action.
* October 12, 1999: After the ending theme of the show, a splattering sound is heard.
* 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).
'''Music/Sounds:''' There are music variants:
* October 1999: The closing theme of the show before the ink spreading sound.
* October 2001-February 2002: Just a sound of the glass breaking.
* Early 2002: An 3-note odd, piano tune, accompanied by an eerie sound effect.
* September 2002-November 2011: An 13-note, reverved, cathedral organ ditty, accompanied by an 7-note instrumental tune.
Both music variants ended with the sound of a glass breaking or the ink spreading, sometimes, louder.

'''Music/Sounds Variants:'''
* On the episodes "X-Ray" and "Hug" of the 1st season of ''Smallville'', the glass shattering sound is absent.
* On the early episodes of the 2nd season of ''Smallville'', the 2002-2011 music variant is somewhat a little quieter before the glass breaking sound is heard.
* Most of the original airings (e.g The CW) use a generic theme and a voice over.

'''Availability:''' Common. First seen on the short-lived series ''The Strip'', and later seen on ''Smallville'' and the 2011 remake of ''Charlie's Angels'' on ABC, Sony Crackle and the CTV Throwback in Canada. It also made an appearance on the 2006 television pilot of ''Aquaman'', which was initially released on iTunes on July 2006 and later included as a bonus feature on the Blu-ray release of ''Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths''.
