I don't think it matters really. I prefer to use the logo because that's the main symbol of it.. Molly Horan didn't like to use logos for some reason and instead use obscure gifs that didn't actually represent it well, this entry's in particular. That's what I really didn't like about her, it wasn't just making an entry for whatever, just using the wrong image for a thumbnail.
I don't like to use logos as thumbnails because they are often too wide, and either looks horrible when you are on the entry and looks cropped when you are navigating the site. For that reason I prefer putting a photo of the main character or a memorable character and use the logo as header for the entry.
Although there are times when the logo looks better, for example the KND one as is square-shapped.
