Background
Missing in Action was a home video company in the United Kingdom. Although it released most of its titles themselves, it also outsourced distribution of select products to companies like Channel 5 Video Distribution, Video Gems, Video Collection International, and more recently, Prism Leisure Corporation. It later shortened its name to "MIA Video" to avoid a lawsuit.

Visuals: On a white background, we see the orange words "MISSING IN ACTION" with black drop shadow and in a crude action-style font. Each of the letters change to white in backwards and the screen transitions to black via a checkerboard effect.
Technique: Early computer effects.
Audio: A low whoosh at the beginning, with loud scratching noises when the letters change to white and more whooshes with twinkles as the screen goes to black.
Availability: Seen on British tapes released by Missing in Action, such as Spider-Man: The Dragon's Challenge and on various Garfield and Friends tapes. It also appears on the 1994 UK VHS of Barabbas.
