Kelly, except for those advertised as The Centaur Group (including some obvious continuations after that branding was dropped). See https://www.comics.org/publisher/58/ for those titles, which include everything from Centaur Publications, Inc., and some series from the Comic Corporation of America.\r\n\r\nHardie founded Harle Publications with George L. Aichele and Warren Angel in 1936. Kelly became the publisher and business manager for the company in 1937. Harle was the longest lasting company in the group, outliving both Hardie and Kelly and continuing to publish under the Harle name into at least the 1990s. It published only one short series of comics, during the mid-50s.\r\n\r\nHardie and Kelly founded H-K Publications together in 1940, followed by the Comic Corporation of America in 1941. While the Comic Corporation of America initially published new books in the Centaur group, in late 1941 it began publishing a separate line of risqué humor comics for military servicemen. For the purposes of this publisher grouping at the GCD, those comics are where the group begins. During this period, H-K, like Harle, only produce non-comics publications.\r\n\r\nAvailable records for this group are sparse, but it appears that Comic Corporation of America continued publishing humor comics through about 1946. It was the only company to publish both these sorts of comics and the Centaur Group comics.\r\n\r\nH-K and various new companies took over existing titles or were used for new titles starting around 1943 or 44. For reasons not currently known, starting in 1956, all books published by this group no longer printed a publishing company in their indicia. The last known comic from this group appeared in 1958.\r\n\r\nThese notes are partially based on information from the Field Guide to American Pulp Artists: \r\nhttps://www.pulpartists.com/Hardie.html\r\n\r\nCentaur: https://www.comics.org/publisher/58/", "series_count": 17, "issue_count": 268, "brand_count": 0, "indicia_publisher_count": 7, "keywords": [], "created": "2015-12-15T14:30:49Z", "modified": "2025-03-14T00:04:11Z" }, { "id": 17053, "name": "Hardline Comics", "year_began": 2020, "year_ended": null, "country": "us", "url": "https://www.hardlinecomics.com/", "notes": "", "series_count": 0, "issue_count": 0, "brand_count": 0, "indicia_publisher_count": 0, "keywords": [], "created": "2022-08-27T18:28:14Z", "modified": "2022-08-27T18:28:14Z" }, { "id": 18667, "name": "HardPress", "year_began": null, "year_ended": null, "country": "us", "url": "", "notes": "", "series_count": 1, "issue_count": 1, "brand_count": 0, "indicia_publisher_count": 0, "keywords": [], "created": "2024-12-31T02:46:58Z", "modified": "2024-12-31T03:20:26Z" }, { "id": 10505, "name": "Harenberg Verlag", "year_began": 1973, "year_ended": 2008, "country": "de", "url": "", "notes": "2008 im KV&H Verlag aufgegangen.", "series_count": 2, "issue_count": 2, "brand_count": 1, "indicia_publisher_count": 1, "keywords": [], "created": "2015-11-09T02:01:51Z", "modified": "2023-12-02T16:27:48Z" }, { "id": 7735, "name": "Harke Bremer;
