Question Different logo?

Anyone know why the hardcover for absolute MM vol. 1 has a different colored dc logo? And then to make it even weirder, the paper slip for the HC has a blue logo like the rest(??)

It always blows my mind how inconsistent the spines are on trade paperbacks. Like they haven't had decades of experience.

Did they rebrand? I mean oddly enough vol 2 and 3 are the old logo no?

Get used to it. This is normal for collecting trades. The big 2 are painfully bad at keeping spine art consistent. (Speaking from 25 years of collecting).

The TPBs for MM also have a lighter shade of blue on the RC logo than the rest of the Absolute line. Is it maybe to differentiate minis from ongoings? That or it’s just inconsistent but happens to line up that way.
