A new era of Superman comic books will begin with a change of direction in July, and this new era will include a change in title designs for the books, including Superman’s oldest title “Action Comics”.
Designed by artist Darran Robinson, the new logos feature a modern sensibility while still paying tribute to the character’s long history.
Darran shared the logos on Twitter saying, “Playing in Metropolis is not easy, lots of legal graphic mine fields to navigate but I’m happy with the results, especially proud of the updated Action Comics logo!”
The new logos include “Action Comics,” “Superman: Son of Kal-El,” “Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow,” and “Superman and the Authority”.

Superman…and The Authority. Ugh.
Supergirl’s looks like they’re advertising barbecue sauce. It’s bold!
Action Comics looks enough like the original that I am satisfied. Son of Kal-El is a new title and concerns Jon, not Clark, so I am ok with that, too. In fact, this title may be a limited series like Supergirl, Woman of Tomorrow. Speaking of which, Though I agree that her title design does look a little retro for a “Tomorrow” hero, Like “Son”,I have no objection. It could be much worse, after all. How often have the mastheads for Batman and Wonder Woman changed over the years? Supes’ title design has remained unchanged for almost 83 years! And… Read more »
