The Walking Dead has had a fairly unified style since its first issue. The bold logo was switched up recently at the beginning of the “All Out War” arc with The Walking Dead #115, and now, with Issue #127, the trade dress is getting another makeover.

Here’s The Walking Dead #127 with its new, more modern design. What do you think of the new logo? Of the arc title listed along the top? Which of the three logos do you like the most?

    I’m one of those people who like seeing the title of the on-going arc on the cover of the issues so that’s definitely a plus. I really like the new logo too and the other ones weren’t bad but with this one, we get an overall better look at the amazing cover art. I’m really digging it. They say “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” and the old ones weren’t “broke” but this is an improvement and a good update, imo.

            But the logo is already perfect as it is, why change it? It is well designed and modern. The new one is too small.

          • Stuart Ormston says:
            9 years ago

            The original is a classic and always will be, i totally agree. big brands are always reiventing themselves, that will always happen, the new logo will not diminish the quality of the old log in any way, and it surley won’t make the comice any less enjoyable, so I choose to acept and embrace the new 🙂

            It’s hardly perfect when art work cover writing, or writing covers artwork when there is plenty of negative space to put it in where it won;t overshadow something else.

          • marco says:
            9 years ago

            But it fits well, there is no empty spaces. With this new logo there are empty spaces, everything is blank.

          • Jeremy says:
            9 years ago

            Yeah I hate when there is writing over the art work, or art work covering the logo like it is doing whee the woman’s head is in front of the word “dead”, I don’t get the point in hiding one behind the other, when you have negative space to put it in so it doesn’t take away from the artwork. Why put that work in just to cover it up?

  11. Owen De Val says:
    9 years ago

    Sorry to say but, I really don’t like this and I didn’t like the all out war style of the logo.
    The original logo was a clear block color and is instantaneously recognizable and Just generally looks good. It’s on the Comics, figures, Trade paperbacks everything comic related. Changing it for a modern look just does not feel or look right. If It ain’t broke… don’t fix it!

    • marco says:

      I agree with you, the best logos are the era before issue 115, big one-block color and volumic logo, and easily discernable.

      This one… The text style is exactly the same. The words are just pressed together. Everyone would still be able to tell a TWD piece of merchandise, regardless of logo style, would know what it is.

      The change isn’t needed but it’s certainly not bad either. Doesn’t do any harm.

      Leaves more room for artwork and leaves writing off in the negative space. Makes perfect sense if you use your brain for once.

      New is much better, having a characters head in front of the name of the comic looks bad when you have names written over top of artwork in the lower left hand corner. The new look leaves more artwork room.

    I’m totally fine with the new art style, and I hope it signals a new direction for the story. I have honestly been a bit bored with TWD for a few years now, but the resolution for “All Out War” has opened up some interesting opportunities for the plot. If he can’t kill off Rick in the storyline, maybe Kirkman can focus out on some new protagonists and keep him as a background character?

    The style is still the same, really so I don’t see what difference it makes to anyone. “I don’t like this at all!” Why? Does it ruin anything? No. It pretty much looks the same, just condensed. “This new one is better.” Maybe THIS is the big change mentioned with the sweeping AOW arc.

    I gotta say I like the original more. It added a more menacing look to the name by emphasizing the DEAD. The new version is cleaner, but I feel it lacks character and emphasis.

    Too much white space for 127 around the title. It feels…. empty.

    There is something about it. Something around the eyes.

    No. I’m sure of it. I hate it.

    I love the old logo…. But the covers pre 100 (simple ones like 48 with the red black contrast) and even some of the moore covers will hold a special place to me as i own a majority of the run and am always buying / selling them and i don’t look at issues 104 or 108 and think anything looks off or wrong either.

    This looks amazing on #127 and i can imagine 128 & 129 as well. I don’t understand why the change and i believe it does look cleaner and more modern….. but less The Walking Dead and i don’t know if that’s a good change or not yet after AoW and what a disappointment that was over-hyped to be.

    I really hope hes not throwing away the characters and starting a new story. If these are characters we already know, then here are my guesses. The main girl probably Rosita or Maggie. To her right Eugene, to his right Gabriel, and to his right a short haired Paul or maybe Rick. To the main girls left, if it’s Maggie then the girl is her and Glenn’s daughter; showing a time jump. If it’s Rosita then the girl is Maggie. Finally, the big man in the back is a shaved headed Heath, his shoulder on one side is lower. Possibly he is limping because of his missing leg and having to wear a peg leg.

    Love the new Logo, don’t get me wrong, the old Logo was great but with the end to “AOW” and picking up a year or two later with Rick having a complete physical makeover and looking like a “new” hero, also Carl got a new look, Negan’s hair has grown out giving us an idea of time passed, the “village” is new in how it is prosperous and we get new characters with a story line that feels like a whole new story is developing… it just felt right for the outside of the comic to take on a new look when the inside is doing the same. It also makes all the issues that came before it, even more important to collectors.
