Comic Sacrifice

Background
Comic Sacrifice was the production venture between Abed Gheith, Sevan Najarian and Justin Roiland. The team was well known for their web series House of Cosbys, which was hit by a cease and desist letter from Bill Cosby's attorney after the fourth episode. The name comes from a comic book series by Manteca, CA resident Justin Roiland, as each issue featured a character getting killed off at the end of every strip. After moving to Los Angeles, he collaborated with Abed Gheith and Sevan Najarian to make cartoons and movies together. The venture folded in 2008 due to creative disputes between Roiland, Gheith and Najarian, the latter two would start the short-lived Mighty Money with Steven Chunn the same year.

Logo (April 25, 2004-2012)
Visuals: On a white background, there are the words "COMIC SACRiFiCE" in a dark green-black gradient with a dark blue outline. The word "SACRiFiCE" is wavy in contrast to the word "COMIC". Below the logo, there are three simplistically-drawn -colored people, with, , and shirts respectively, sporting  pants and black shoes, along with their shadow. All three are bowing down so we could only see the top of their heads, which only have scant, separated strands of hair. The first and third one are linking hands with the second one. They quickly straighten their posture, revealing the faces of each one. including the text on their shirts, which read "pro", "duct", and "tions" respectively, which form the word "productions".

Variants:
 * In 2012, the House of Cosbys web series was remastered in 16:9. As such, the Comic Sacrifice logo was turned widescreen. Since the original logo is in 4:3, the person on the left's shadow is covered by a white gradient, presumably because the raw file used to make the logo was not on hand.

Technique: 2D animation.

Audio: Two men (presumably Abed Gheith and Sevan Najarian) saying "yay!" and a louder one (Justin Roiland) overlapping the two, screaming "YAAAAY!!" Audio Variants:
 * On House of Cosbys, the end credits theme usually trails into the logo, then queueing the normal sounds from the logo.
 * On House of Cosbys episode one, there is a gravely voice saying "Oh god, look at you."
 * On Unbelievable Tales, there is the narrator Slippery Slappers (voiced by Smith Harrison) say "Don't even think about it."

Availability: First seen on the Hilarious Jokes pilot, which was screened at Channel 101, along with the rest of Comic Sacrifice's series. Also seen on Documentary: The Series, Toro and Moro, the first 4 episodes of House of Cosbys, Unbelievable Tales, and The Real Animated Adventures of Doc and Mharti.
