Marvel Knights

Background
Marvel Knights was a sub-division of Marvel Studios that released films based on darker material and lesser-known characters, but the critical and financial failure of their only two theatrical films caused the label to go dormant after releasing a single motion comic as a third and final production.

(December 5, 2008-September 13, 2012?)
Logo: Similar concept as the regular Marvel logo: comic book pages are flipping with a navy blue filter, zoom out and then the word "MARVEL" on top with "KNIGHTS" below, both in white, on a black BG. There is a glow around the logo.

Variations:


 * On the first trailer for Thor & Loki: Blood Brothers, the logo is in CGI and made of stone, floating against a stormy sky backdrop. Here, it reads "MARVEL KNIGHTS ANIMATION" instead. Lightning flashes from the top left to the bottom center twice, before a third, bigger flash takes the whole screen and transitions to the Shout! Factory logo.
 * On the second trailer for the same film, it is much like the normal variant, but starting with the zoom out and in warpspeed. The text reads "MARVEL KNIGHTS ANIMATION" again.

Technique: 2D computer animation. Like the main Marvel logo at the time, this was done by Prologue. It can be seen on their site.

Music/Sounds: The sounds of the pages flipping and the opening of the film.

Availability: Very rare. Only seen on Punisher: War Zone and Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance, while the "ANIMATION" variants appear on the trailers for Thor & Loki: Blood Brothers.
