1st Logo (October 12, 1999-November 10, 2011)

Fullscreen
Fullscreen with left & right black bars
Widescreen

Visuals: In an office setting is a bottle filled with scarlet ink. A black label covers the bottom half, containing the company name in Impact, gold, and a stacked format. "INK" has a bottom white gradient. A split-second before the logo ends, a hammer swings down and smashes the bottle, causing the ink to spread everywhere, including covering up the whole screen.

Variant: The logo exists in both a fullscreen and widescreen format.

Technique: Live-action.

Audio: It varies, but they usually end with a glass breaking sound.

October 12, 1999: After the ending theme of the show, a splattering sound is heard.
1999-2000: The ending theme of the show.
October 2001-2002: None.
2001-2002 (Smallville episodes "X-Ray" and "Hug"): Entirely silent.
February-May 2002: An odd, three-note piano tune composed by Mark Snow.
September 2002-November 10, 2011: A reverberating cartoon ditty again composed by Mark Snow.
Original airings use a generic theme and a voice over.

Availability: It debuted on The Strip and was later seen on Smallville, the 2006 TV pilot of Aquaman, and Charlie's Angels (2011).

2nd Logo (November 15, 2015-)

Visuals: Over a black background are the stacked words "MILLAR GOUGH". To the right is a red beaker with a big black water-drop in it. Inside the water-drop is "INK".

-'''Logo:''' In an office setting, at the forefront, we see a bottle filled with {{color|orangered|scarlet}} ink in it labeled the stacked words reading with the company name in an Impact font colored in {{color|gold}}, with only the bottom half of the word "'''INK'''" in white/{{color|silver}}. After a while, a split-second before the logo ends, a hammer (which can be seen coming down in the bottle's reflection if the viewer looks very closely) swings down and breaks the bottle, causing the ink in it to spread everywhere, covering up the whole screen.

+* 1999-2000: The ending theme of the show.
-* February 2002-May 2002: An odd, three-note piano tune, accompanied by an eerie noise.
+* October 2001-2002: None.
-* 2002-2011: A reverberating cartoon ditty.
+* 2001-2002 (''Smallville'' episodes "X-Ray" and "Hug"): Entirely silent.

-'''Music/Sounds Variants:'''
+* September 2002-November 10, 2011: A reverberating cartoon ditty again composed by Mark Snow.
-* On the ''Smallville'' season 1 episodes "X-Ray" and "Hug", the bottle breaking sound is absent.

 * Original airings use a generic theme and a voice over.

-'''Availability:''' Common. First seen on ''The Strip''. Also later seen on ''Smallville'', the 2006 TV pilot of ''Aquaman'' and the 2011 reboot of ''Charlie's Angels''. Don't expect to see this on the company's films, though.

-'''Legacy:''' For the variant with only the bottle breaking sound, it would be be startling to some people (especially the variant without music where it breaks with no warning, which could be jarring to many people). However, for the music variant, it is slightly less-scary with the music playing. The logo may be favored for fans of ''Smallville''.
