Spider-Man Vs. Typeface

Sadly, no, this is not a treatise on the wonders of the syllabic villainy known as Typeface. Instead, this is to clue you all in on a wonderful series of articles discussing one of the most important yet overlooked aspects of comic books - the logo.

Letterer Todd Klein has a series of articles on his blog discussing the many logos that both he and others have created over the years. He usually takes a character (or single book, should the situation demand it) and compares and contrasts all of the logos throughout the years. Needless to say when he tackled the X-Men, there was much discussion to be had as there have been many X-books through the years, most with changing logos.

This month, the topic at hand is your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man. Coming tomorrow is the fifth and final part. Check out Todd's blog for his analysis of the logos for Spider-Man, Tarzan, Wonder Woman and many others.
