The Loius Vuitton logo is just so fitting.  :sarcasm:

We can probably skip the sarcasm emoticon in this thread and just assume for all.

These are really fun versions of brand logos. Comic Sans has never been a good typography for logos. (The pixelated ones are more fun.) Good typography is invisible typography still.

My son has these McSweeney books everywhere. They are F'n mind-boggling on how they are put together. One is a double spine nightmare, I can't figure out some of the others.
