A sub-trope of the Zorro Mark and often seen in works featuring a Super Hero, this trope occurs when a character recreates their logo or Chest Insignia using fire. Often, this is in concert with a Dynamic Entry. The Big Bad believes the hero is dead, only to see a flame spreading in the distance, eventually creating the hero's emblem just before he flies through the window. Sometimes, it is actually used at the end of a Climactic Battle where the hero sets the fire to reveal he is victorious. There are other variations but the effect is the same. The reason for this is mostly Rule of Cool. Seeing the hero's emblem rising up in flames looks really exciting. This causes some Fridge Logic, however when the viewers wonder how and why the hero set the fire beforehand, to say nothing of the potential public safety hazard. Not to Be Confused with Fire Emblem. |

In the music video for Chamillionaire's "Ridin'", he's standing on a blacktop in front of a flaming version of his logo. | |

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows: How the chapter "Return to New York" ends. When the Turtles return to the Krang-occupied New York and reunite with the Hamato Clan, Kasumi, and Splinter, they, at Mikey's suggestion, set a turtle shell-shaped fire on top of the Channel 6 building to let everyone know they, and the city's hope of beating Krang, have returned. The writer confirms that the scene was inspired by the The Dark Knight Rises example below. | |

In LEGO Batman 2: DC Superheroes, the Joker does this with his face using Technicolor Science chemicals (green and purple, which is also his own color scheme) as a Calling Card. This is later revealed to be a Foreshadowing, as Batman uses the same exact chemicals on the whole city to draw Joker's face in order to call the Justice League for help. | |

In Daredevil (2003), the title hero apparently drew his famous "DD" emblem in gasoline and let it set at a crime scene, knowing that someone would flick a cigarette on the ground and set it off. Pretty impressive, given that he's blind. | |

While it never occurs in the film, the poster for The Dark Knight has a bat-symbol engulfed in flames on the side of a building. Unlike most examples, it's probably referencing the destruction brought by the Joker. | |

Twisted Tropes: Gordon asks Batman how he made a fiery logo appear on the wall. Batman says it's the interns — then one of them catches on fire and falls down, and Batman backpedals that these are robots. | |

Eric Draven of The Crow does this when he kills T-Bird, one of the leaders of Top Dollar's gang and the third target of his Roaring Rampage of Revenge, using explosives and gasoline to turn T-Bird's own car into a bomb. When the car explodes, a trail of flames spreads across the pier in a pattern created by Draven's accelerant, creating the crow emblem. This is an interesting case in that the character does not really have an emblem in-universe. The emblem was used in marketing and the film's logo. | |

In The Mask of Zorro, when the second Zorro sets off on his mission, the first Zorro sets a fire along a hillside that creates the famous Zorro "Z" as a sign to the Big Bad that he has returned. That scene compromised half of the movie's advertising campaign. The other half was Antonio Banderas cutting Catherine Zeta-Jones' top off. | |

Fantastic Four: Johnny Storm a.k.a. the Human Torch frequently creates the Fantastic Four's emblem as a summons to the rest of the team when trouble arises. The other members of the team have a Flare Gun for the same effect, creating a large, flaming "4" to summon the rest of the team. |
