King Features Syndicate (2004-present)

Background
When the original King Features Entertainment was absorbed into Hearst Entertainment, King Features Syndicate became a licensing entity, and remains a strip company. Once Hearst Entertainment was disposed in 2015, the company entered into animation production.

1st Logo (November 9, 2004)


Visuals: A big flash appears which reveals the planet earth, which is spinning. A ribbon is pulling out behind from the earth (with the words "KING FEATURES" on the left ribbon, and the word "SYNDICATE" appearing on the right ribbon), and the symbol from the first logo appears on top of the earth. The flash dies down and the finished product ends up on a dark teal background, which looks similar to the 1960 logo, only this time the TV is changed to a globe of the Earth.

Technique: Simple CGI.

Audio: None, but on the Fox airings of the movie, a generic theme is playing.

Availability: It was only seen on the direct-to-video movie Popeye's Voyage: The Quest for Pappy, as well as a Fox airing of said movie on December 17, 2004 and December 30, 2005.

2nd Logo (February 18, 2022- )
