Not half as confused as those who design logos for it. Now Beowulf was a guy from an old legend. He fought a monster (Grendel) and the monster's mother. He also fought a dragon. Nowhere in the tale will you even find a depiction of a wolf (though Grendel's lair was metaphorically called "a wolf's retreat" and Grendel's mother had a similar adjective applied metaphorically. Finally, there was a fleeting poetic mention of birds and wolfs feeding on dead carcasses. But no actual depiction of such an event. Nevertheless, the Beowulf logos tend to be pictures of wolves. I suppose that it sounds too much like "Be a wolf."
