 lion publishing's lion is a different logo (and later also colophon) from armada books' lion, later to become wm. collins' sons' lion, then that truly fine merkin, rupert "the dirty digger" murdoch's harpercollinspublishers' lion; technically, as it is a bearded lion facing the reader or viewer, it is a leopard regardant and, since it is either walking or possibly stood still, a leopard passant regardant.

lion publishing's lion is definitely not any other publisher's lion.
