0 Cartoon Network's Cartoons Logos (Part 2)

Cartoon Network (commonly abbreviated CN) is a cable television network which primarily shows animated programs, was created by Turner Broadcasting. It is the original American channel that began broadcasting on October 1, 1992 with the Bugs Bunny short Rhapsody Rabbit being its first ever aired program.

In the previous part of this article we looked at the logos of courage the cowardly dog, kids next door and foster’s home for imaginary friends. Here are some more logos of cartoons Network’s shows that I would like to share with you;

Samurai Jack


Samurai Jack was created by animator “Genndy Tartakovsky” that aired on CN (Cartoon Network) from 2001 until 2004. It is remarked for its highly detailed, outline-free, masking-based animation, and also for its cinematic style and tempo. The logo of samurai jack shows the same picture of speed and rage of Japanese martial arts which is the theme of this show. There have been two logos, 1; only with text, 2; has the eyes of samurai jack. Both of them are great pieces of art.

Dexter's Laboratory


Dexter's Laboratory (commonly abbreviated as Dexter's Lab) was created by “Genndy Tartakovsky” and produced by CN Studios in 1996-2001. It is about a boy genius named Dexter, who has a massive secret laboratory, packed with an endless collection of his inventions. The way to enter this lab is from his book shelf. The logo of Dexter’s Lab has the element of green substances along with a lightning outline on the type fonts (as shown in the title of the cartoon as he plugs in and lights up the big letters on the equipment “Dexter’s Laboratory”). The logo is just the way it should be.

Ben 10


Ben 10 was created by Man of Action which is a group consisting of Duncan Rouleau, Joe Kelly, and Steven T. Seagle, Joe Casey. Ben 10 logos have “BEN” in Green color shade and “10” in black and white with a light blue outline surrounding the type fonts. Fonts are basically custom made which is the best part of Ben 10 logo. Also below the words BEN 10 there a TM sign in black.

As I see it, all of the cartoon network’s shows have great logos, and there would be fewer logos to be called poor. This is what makes cartoon network what it is as it just not only works on its programming but works on every nut and bolt related to the shows.

0 Cartoon Network's Cartoons Logos (Part 1)

Cartoon network is one of the most favorite TV channels of kids. It’s the cartoon network that revolutionized the style of cartoons by bringing shows like kids next door, Dexter’s laboratory and Ben 10. This article will be in two parts, so in the first one, I am going to talk about the 3 Best cartoon logos of cartoon network.

Courage the Cowardly Dog is a television cartoon series created and directed by John R. Dilworth, which runs on cartoon network. This cartoon revolves around a somewhat anthropomorphized dog named Courage who lives with his owners Muriel and Eustace in a farmhouse in the middle of a fictional town of nowhere. The logo of courage has the courage written in red color and the cowardly dog written in purple, with the character of courage drawn to it in a frightened expression which shows the theme of the program clearly.


Foster’s home for imaginary friends was named the 85th best animated series by IGN, calling it very funny and endearing. Mac, Bloo, Eduardo and Frankie are the most favorite characters of this cartoon series among children. The logo of Foster’s home for imaginary friends represents the main characters of this cartoon, as the different font colors are the same colors as the characters which are in this cartoon series. In fact, the type fonts are the best part about this logo, just look at how the word “Foster’s” gives a magical feel to the logo! This is just according to the story of this cartoon.

Codename: Kids Next Door, AKA Kids Next Door debuted on Cartoon Network on December 6, 2002. The Series is based upon 5 characters; Nigel Uno, Hoagie Pennywhistle Gilligan Jr, Kuki Sanban, Wallabee "Wally" Beetles and Abigail Lincoln. KND logo has some great features. All of the five cartoon characters standing in their own styles with a huge “KND” written on the front along with “Codename: Kids next door” words. KND Logo has 4 colors; Yellow, white, black and red. This color combination is considered one of the best in logo graphic designing. Over all, the KND logo is commendable.


In the next part of this article I will take you to the tour of Tom and Jerry logo, Samurai Jack logo, Ben 10 Logo and more, so stay tuned.
