From Wikipedia:


Dark Horse Comics is one of the largest "independent" American comic book publishers, behind dominant publishers Marvel Comics and DC Comics. Mike Richardson, the owner of several comic book shops in the Portland, Oregon metropolitan area, began to publish in 1986, investing profits from his stores into Dark Horse Comics. The publisher is based in Milwaukie, Oregon.

Dark Horse publishes many licensed comics, including comics based on Star Wars, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Aliens, and Who Wants to be a Superhero? Dark Horse also publishes creator-owned comics such as Frank Miller's Sin City, Mike Mignola's Hellboy, Stan Sakai's Usagi Yojimbo, Katsuhiro Otomo's Akira and Michael Chabon's The Escapist.

Dark Horse's film arm, Dark Horse Entertainment, produces films based on Dark Horse Comics, including The Mask and Hellboy.

Their DH Press imprint publishes novelizations of their more popular comic book titles, including Aliens and Predator.
