▲'''Logo:''' In front of a white piece of display board, we see a paper cutout of an angry-looking monster (animated by Joss Whedon himself) moving from right to left. The text "MUTANT ENEMY INC." is scrawled onto the display board in a "pointy" style, with "MUTANT" in red, "ENEMY" in blue, and "INC." in black.
'''Trivia:'''
*This logo was spoofed in an episode of ''Robot Chicken'', titled "Rabbits on a Rollercoaster", where Joss Whedon guest stars as himself (in doll form). As the Mutant Enemy rips apart the city, the scene cuts to an office where Joss is playing with paper cutouts and an executive says to him, "Come on Joss, that's why you were kicked off Wonder Woman.". To which Joss holds up one of the monsters and says "Grr, argh!"

▲*Starting with the ''BTVS'' episode "Wild at Heart", the logo is vertically stretched correctly (to fit the 16:9 aspect ratio) and we see a little more of the lower half of the monster.
▲*On the ''BTVS'' series finale "Chosen", the monster turns his head and pulls a face at the viewer while moving.
