Valencia Abandons New Logo At Request Of DC Comics 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Tue Nov 25, 2014 4:28 pm

Valencia have said they will not use a new version of the club logo, which has been opposed by DC Comics for being too similar to its Batman symbol.

The club have revealed they had applied for copyright for a new design of the bat that forms part of their crest, but they have since decided to discard it after DC Comics “presented its opposition to the request.”

The bat has formed part of Valencia’s crest since 1922 while the Batman comic first appeared in 1939.
