Agree with other people. But must say that it’s also a VERY boring logo. If they are trying to entice the layman, families, children, etc to discover history, then a “D” with the corner turned up won’t do it at all. Discovering history should be fun, an adventure; this logo tells you that discovering history is turning the page in a dusty old book….yawn……….

The marks might share visual similarities, but conceptually…the ideas are far from the same.
Uh oh. have you seen DC’s new logo? http://www.bleedingcool.com/2012/01/19/dc-comics-launches-logo-official-colour-including-watchmen-variant/
I made the same DC / Discovery History observation!

I like DC’s new logo more. It looks more quirky.
