Wow, any one of these would have been great, but I love the quill in particular!

I hate the quill!  I like ink round 1- very visually pleasing

I wish they had gone with something more similar to the off-Broadway.

I've been curious to see these other designs because I don't really like the Broadway artwork that much. I think it's too plain. Out of those I like the hand and quill design the best but when you read his explanations for why each one was ultimately not used it all makes sense. Bottom line it has to be equally exciting and legible close up and far away. The Broadway artwork, plain and simple as it is, was probably the best choice.

I don't think any of them work especially their current artwork. It's just not iconic enough. There's no excitement or individuality in them.

Seeing these actually makes me happy they went for the star design...
