After one of the music variants as used in this logo are heard, a hammer (which, however, if you look at the bottle very closely, you can see a hammer swinging down, as seen in the white light reflection) swings down and breaks the bottle, causing the orange red ink in it to fly everywhere, covering up the whole screen.

  • A less cropped version of the logo exists. This can also be seen on 2003 DVD releases, Channel 4 and E4 British airings of the entire 1st season of Smallville. Also seen on ITV2 UK airings of the entire 1st season of the said show.
