The Harvey Entertainment Company (formerly known as Harvey Films and Harvey Entertainment, or simply Harvey) was the production arm of comic book publisher Harvey Comics. It was founded in 1957.[1][2]
A majority of the company's assets were purchased by Classic Media (currently owned by NBCUniversal) in 2001 under the in-name subsidiary Harvey Entertainment, Inc., while the remains of the business including the live-action film division were folded within Echo Bridge Entertainment.
