DC Comics is celebrating its The Year Of The Villain summer event in August with covers featuring "battle-damaged" versions of series logos. The damaged logos symbolize the destruction of DC's greatest heroes when the DC villains accept Lex Luthor’s evil offer to become ultimate, stronger-than-ever versions of themselves.

Each of the covers will also feature a distinctive "Year Of The Villain: Dark Gifts" cover banner. As the Year of the Villain event continues to escalate throughout September and beyond, the logos on the covers will suffer more and more damage, culminating in a line-wide rogue takeover in November's comics.
