Oni Press is heading into New York Comic Con by revealing a new logo. It was designed by Patrick Crotty, an Eisner and Ringo award nominee known for designing Bryan Lee O’Malley’s Scott Pilgrim 20th Anniversary Hardcover Box Sets. The new logo will debut in November 2025 on the cover of Crownsville #1 by writer Rodney Barnes and artist Elia Bonetti.

Since Oni was founded by Joe Nozemack and Bob Schreck in 1997, the company has used two main logos. The first was designed by Dave Gibbons (Watchmen) and was used through 2011. Art director Keith A. Wood designed the second logo, which Oni began using in 2012.

“We’ve been blessed to celebrate a great number of successes at Oni Press in recent years, but our mission remains the same: to work hand-in-hand with incredibly talented creators to tell stories that reflect our modern moment through the ever-powerful lens of comics,” said David Steward II, Chairman of the Oni-Lion Forge Publishing Group and CEO of Polarity, Oni’s parent company. “Now, as Oni prepares to reach even greater heights ahead in the months and years to come, it’s the perfect time to refresh the company’s footprint in comic shops and bookstores with an aesthetic that’s every bit as bright and bold as the stories we put onto the page.”

Over the course of the last year, the Portland, Oregan based publisher released the 20th anniversary of Scott Pilgrim, and they revived EC Comics with the series Epitaphs from the Abyss, Cruel Universe, and Cruel Kingdom. They introduced new licensed comics and graphic novels through partnerships with Devolver Digital and Massive Monster’s Cult of the Lamb, The Nacelle Company’s Biker Mice from Mars and RoboForce, and Sesame Workshop’s Sesame Street.

“It’s an exhilarating time to be publishing comics under the Oni Press banner,” Oni Press Editor-in-Chief Sierra Hahn said. “Our first giant-sized Adventure Time special by Eisner Award winner Caroline Cash just hit stands. The first issue of High Strangeness – our new collaboration with SpectreVision from creators including Chris Condon, Dave Chisholm, and more – begins this week. We’re sending some of our most anticipated graphic novels of 2026 – including First Freedom: The Story of Opal Lee and Juneteenth – to the printer in the next few days. And we’re in the midst of major new initiatives like the expansion of the EC Comics line with Outlaw Showdown, the imminent return of Cult of the Lamb, and the upcoming debut of Murder Drones, adapted from the hit animated series from Glitch Productions. Simultaneously, we’re deep into plotting and planning our next major wave of creator-owned comics and graphic novels with familiar faces and surprise talents alike – several of which you’ll hear about this week at New York Comic Con. Ambitious, art-forward, and high energy – we wanted our new logo to reflect the same captivating qualities we aspire to deliver with our comics, and we are so pleased to finally share the results.”

Their upcoming projects include the new hardcover collections Benjamin by Ben H. Winters and Leomacs, and Free for All by Patrick Horvath. Original graphic novel releases are The Demon of Beausoleil by Mariana Costa, the next volume of Covenant by LySandra Vuong, and the middle grade title Agent Cupcake by Mel Hilario, Katie Longua, and Lauren Davis.

“At Oni Press, we live, eat, and breathe comics. It’s a great privilege and a true dream to be able to collaborate with creators and cartoonists we deeply admire to bring their work to the widest audience possible. For nearly three decades, Oni has prized itself on elevating new voices, taking creative risks, and, above all, championing the comics medium as a global artform with a far-reaching power all its own,” Oni President & Publisher Hunter Gorinson said. “Now, with our 30th anniversary just over the horizon, we’re gearing up to unveil the first of several major new surprises that will propel us toward even greater heights in the years ahead. We’re ready for it – onward!”
