-'''Logo:''' In an office setting, at the forefront, we see a bottle filled with {{color|orangered|scarlet}} ink in it labeled the stacked {{color|gold}}-white gradient words reading with the company name in an Impact font. 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 of it and breaks it, causing the ink in it to spread everywhere, covering up the whole screen.

-'''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 is also seen on the 2011 revival show, which was also initially released as a Blu-ray print by Mill Creek Entertainment, and also seen on the 2011 revival show as a DVD release by ABC Signature. 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''. It may have also appeared on Channel 4 and E4 UK airings and 2003 DVD releases of season 1 of ''Smallville''. This also appeared on Blu-ray prints of ''Smallville''. It is also seen on the DVD releases of ''Smallville''. This is also seen on the short-lived series ''The Strip'' on UPN. However, this logo does not appear on films such as ''Hannah Montana: The Movie'', which has the different company's logo instead. This logo does not appear on some television shows or films starting with ''Bugs'' and ending with ''Made Men'' either, which also has the different company's logo instead.
-'''Legacy:''' While the sound of a bottle breaking can be startling for some people (especially the variant without music where it breaks with no warning, which could be jarring to many people), some people may find this logo funny, and the music variant is slightly less scary than the earlier variant, and it may be favored for fans of ''Smallville''.
