Marvel Spotlight is a new label from Marvel Studios, intended to distinguish standalone series from those are more connected to the ever-expanding Marvel Cinematic Universe. Its banner was first used before the 2024 miniseries Echo.

The logo is typeset in Condor, whose Art Deco shimmer recalls old Hollywood and complements the light-and-shadow play as the animated logo is revealed. It was designed by Perception, who call it “dramatic, prestigious and a bit nostalgic.”

Condor is an expansive series of 60 styles that spans across weights, widths, and italics—like the MCU, it can be too much to keep track of! Fortunately, this logo shows that you can forget all that world-building, just grab a couple weights, and use them effectively.

Many thanks to Patric King for alerting me to this use.
