Magazine Management Co., Inc.

Magazine Management Co., Inc.

Magazine Management Co., Inc. was the actual named used by Martin Goodman, founder and publisher of Marvel Comics, in the 1960s and 1970s. Under this company name Goodman published a variety of comic publication-color and larger magazine format black and white magazines, adult material, adventure, celebrity film magazines and others. In the fall of 1968, Goodman sold all his publishing businesses to the Perfect Film and Chemical Corporation, which grouped them as a subsidiary called Magazine Management Company. Goodman remained as publisher [6] until 1972. Two years later he founded a new comics company, Seaboard Periodicals, but it folded a year afterward.

Perfect Film and Chemical renamed itself Cadence Industries in 1973, the first of many post-Goodman changes, mergers, and acquisitions that led to what became the 21st century corporation Marvel Entertainment.
