Magazine Enterprises

Magazine Enterprises was an American comic book company that operated from 1943 to 1958. The company published primarily Western, humor, crime, adventure, and children's comics with virtually no superheroes. It was founded by Vin Sullivan, an editor at Columbia Comics and previously the editor at National Allied Publications (the future DC Comics).

Magazine Enterprises' characters include the jungle goddess Cave Girl, drawn by Bob Powell, and Ghost Rider, a horror-themed Western avenger created by writer Ray Krank and artist Dick Ayers in 1949. After the trademark lapsed, Ayers and others adapted it as Marvel Comics' Western character Ghost Rider in 1967.
