Unfortunately that has no chance of succeeding. When you sign up to reddit, you give them a license to use the content you submit. It's in the user agreement, section 5 "Your Content": https://www.redditinc.com/policies/user-agreement
Under GDPR you have the right to your content, including data download and revocation. If you are banned from or restricted access to a website it doesn’t strip you of that right. However the complain should have probably been through GDPR and not DMCA.
GDPR wouldn't cover this case either. Not if the logo has no personal data attached to it https://commission.europa.eu/law/law-topic/data-protection/reform/what-personal-data_en
