Anyone think that the Graphic novels should change their design to match the new UB design or should they continue with the light blue and gold colors? 

From a marketing perspective, I have two or three thoughts that go against what I would really like to see, but I am curious what everyone else thinks.

Good question. Trying to picture it.

Well, the bigger words, I think, might look a tad weird for the graphic novel. Maybe because the GNs seems more condensed or something, so it doesn't have as good of a balance? Can't really explain what I mean.

I was thinking about this too. Good question...but I'm not sure.

What do you think, CJ?

I made some adjustments to the current style, which I think improve it slightly for the Graphic Novels...

Agreed.  The curve has bugged me forever.  Hmmmmmm, let me see if I can do a mock up and see what it looks like.

Here we go, something like this perhaps.

I like the regular way. ;D

Rolling his eyes, Joe sat on the window sill and started sawing.
"Thank you, Joe."
"You're welcome, Martha Stewart."

Nice job on the manip!

Cool but the box makes it look to much like a single issue instead of a graphic novel.

Really nice.  Actually that would look better than the current version, or even your modified version of the current version.

Interesting point.  Although I don't totally agree with it, I do think that the yellow box is dated and need to go.  I would think the logo and title at the bottom would be good enough and we could put the title and number by themselves.
