1st Logo (2005- )


Nicknames: "PFR", "Miiii amoooor", "Creature from Hell/of Doom", "The Chrome Ghost Logo"

Logo: Against a white BG, we see a very crude drawing of an apple-headed creature with a toothy red smile and a big nose, which is wearing a top hat and a collar and also has a large blue worm coming out the left side of his head. The lower half of this creature has his skinny little legs in a squatting position and a face on his buttocks that appears to be spitting blood. Gray bars are shown on both sides of the screen, with "PFFFR", in red, written on them. The logo rapidly flashes in and out of view.

Variants:


 * On the Xavier: Renegade Angel episode "Bloodcorn", the logo is tinted red. The flashing also becomes more intense at the end.
 * On the Xavier: Renegade Angel episode "Going Normal", the logo has a shatter effect to it.

Trivia: This creature is the "mascot" for PFFR's 2005 EP Chrome Ghost. This logo is still used on PFFR's website (everywhere).

FX/SFX: The flashing.

Music/Sounds: A voice saying "PFR" (it says it in an extended tone, resulting in the voice saying "Peeeeee Efff Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr", although it kind of sounds like "Miii amoooor".) in a weird "burpy" voice. A disoriented bubbling noise is also heard.

Availability: Uncommon. Can be found on several of their shows like Wonder Showzen, Xavier: Renegade Angel and Delocated. It was also seen on the pilot of The Problem Solverz called "Neon Knome", which was going to be an Adult Swim show before Cartoon Network picked it up as a children's series.

Editor's Note: The shocking design of the creature, as well as the flashing and strange voice, can be seen as scary to those who never seen it before, along with the 2 Xavier variants, but it's not as bad to those used to it or are fans of their shows and songs (especially since this logo does appear on the EP mentioned above).

2nd Logo (2016)


Logo: We see the famous SMPTE color bar screen with the text "P F F R" on it with "PRESENTS" under it. Above it is a fast-forward indicator. The entire thing is in static.

FX/SFX: The static.

Music/Sounds: 3 beeps, with each increasing in pitch.

Availability: Appears on the start of M.O.P.Z..
