When it has to be there in a Flash
June 22nd, 2006 by Kelson. Posted in Comics, Signs of the Times and tagged for Comics, flash, logo, truckA while back I was driving on the freeway and noticed a truck with this logo:
OK, so I’m maybe a bit focused on the Flash, but then I started looking at the design.
- Red as the main color
- Sans-serif capital italics (just like the longest-running versions of the Flash logo)
- A lightning bolt that runs from the upper right to the lower left.
Hmm…
It got me thinking about commercial applications of super-speed. Not something that turns up often in the super-hero genre, but it shows up occasionally. Kapitalist Kouriers is the first one that comes to mind. They were a trio of Soviet defectors who decided to sell their services as couriers and, from time to time, heroes for hire.
