The First One

• A Black & White image apparently designed to look like a Stamp, with each word in CAPS, using terminology that purports to convey a sense of authority or authorization.
• A SYMBOL in the lower half of the image, possibly conveying insight, a formula, or an equation, potentially pertaining to a combination involving the Letter A (in the MIDDLE) and two manifestations of the Letter C, with the "separate" aspects of the C, depicted as existing on each side of the adjoining A (e.g., one continuous C depicted as existing as both sides (e.g., left and right) of the A.
• An image combining words and images known as a "Logo."
• The lines in the middle seem to be implying fast movement or speed. Are they trying to imply that they are fast/faster? (Well, that's laughable).
• It's curious that this rather important sounding image appears for a fraction of a second within two-hour film. Did they intend for it not to be seen?
• These facts were particularly notable considering that this Image was seen in a Comic-Book-Come-to-Life Vehicle Starring Miles Morales, the first Bi-racial, Black-Puerto Rican, Spider-Man.
• Whatever the heck it was (past tense), it was not getting past Us. Dumb, inexplicable, sneaky shit like that is automatically rejected by our obviously more advanced "Computers.”

The image references the Comics Code Authority a group founded in 1954. Essentially serving as censorship, the organization had both supporters and detractors. The following history is intriguing:

"By the early 2000s, publishers bypassed the CCA and Marvel Comics abandoned it in 2001. By 2010, only three major publishers still adhered to it: DC Comics, Archie Comics, and Bongo Comics. Bongo broke with the CCA in 2010. DC and Archie followed in January 2011, rendering the code completely defunct." 

• There is no readily available coherent explanation as to why a Code considered to be defunct in 2011 appears in a film released in 2023. 
• There is no readily available information to confirm the legal, regulatory, legislative, or policy structure under which a defunct code is revived.
• The reasoning for placing this particular "code", from this particular organization, within this particular film, at this particular time, felt sketchy. In fact, the whole thing -- the organization, its history, its dissolution, the branding, the logo -- felt intentionally mysterious.

An Object appearing in an existing work that purports to convey authorization or approval on behalf of an Individual and/or Entity shall be referred to as CODE. CODE may include any item whose purpose is to convey Intelligence and/or information. The term includes letters, symbols, numbers, logos, stamps, brands.
