Background: Atomic Cartoons is a Canadian animation studio founded in 1999 by Trevor Bentley, Mauro Casalese, Rob Simmons, and Rob Davies. They are best known for their work on Flash animated cartoons for Canadian networks like YTV and Teletoon. In 2015, Atomic was acquired by Thunderbird Entertainment.

Logo: On a paper background, a blue pencil with Atomic Cartoons's web address (<a class="external" href="http://atomiccartoons.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="atomiccartoons.com">atomiccartoons.com</a>) on it scribbles the Atomic Cartoons logo on the paper background. The pencil then goes offscreen, the paper background turns into blue and white light rays and the sketch turns into the real Atomic Cartoons logo.
Variants:
- On seasons 1-2 of Atomic Betty, we see the main character, Betty, jumping and performing a spin-kick in a green room. Then, a white flash appears on the screen to reveal the final result of the logo.
- On season 3 episodes of Atomic Betty (also known as Atomic Betty: Mission Earth), the logo's background is plain dark blue.
FX/SFX: Everything, all done in Flash animation.
Music/Sounds: The closing theme of the show.
Availability: Rare. Appears on shows produced by them at the time, like the first three seasons of Captain Flamingo and Atomic Betty. Look for reruns of these shows on YTV and Teletoon.
Scare Factor:
- Original Variant: None to Minimal. The sudden transition to the logo can catch some off-guard, but it's harmless.
- Atomic Betty Seasons 1-2 Variant: None to Minimal. The sudden appearance of Betty spin-kicking may catch some off-guard, but in general again it's harmless.
2nd Logo

Next, the dot explodes into an assortment of shapes and colors, while a red stylized box turns around and towards the viewer while zooming in. As the box settles into position, it rapidly "bounces" forth and back towards the viewer, changing its color from red to the SMPTE color bars and then back to red, while the white "Atomic Cartoons", set in a Impact-like font, appear rather frantically inside the box and a triangle growns at the bottom-right of the box, resulting in a stylized speech bubble with a white border; as this happens, a second burst of shapes and colors occurs behind the logo.
FX/SFX: The shapes bursting, the box turning and the logo forming.
Music/Sounds: The ending theme of the show.
Availability: Current. Seen on the fourth season of Captain Flamingo. Also seen on some episodes of Rocket Monkeys. Seen on current programs.
Scare Factor: Minimal. The dark background, the box zooming in, and bouncing and the shape bursting might not sit well with some; otherwise, it's a harmless logo.
