Dark Horse Comics is an American comic book, graphic novel, and manga publisher founded in Milwaukie, Oregon, by Mike Richardson in 1986. The company was created using funds earned from Richardson's chain of Portland, Oregon, comic book shops known as Pegasus Books and founded in 1980. It is a susbsidiary of the Embracer Group.
Dark Horse Comics has emerged as the fourth largest comic publishing company in the United States as of 2022. Dividing profits with artists and writers, as well as supporting artistic and creative rights in the comic book industry, Dark Horse Comics has become a strong proponent of publishing licensed material that often does not fit into mainstream media. Several well-known titles include: 300, Aliens, Avatar: The Last Airbender, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Dark Matter, Hellboy, Ninja Gaiden, Predator, Sin City, Star Wars, Terminator, Umbrella Academy, and Usagi Yojimbo.
In December 2021, Swedish gaming company Embracer Group launched its acquisition of Dark Horse Media, Dark Horse Comics' parent company, and completed the buyout in March 2022.
