Disclose Notes: Not properly a Harvey company, this was one of two companies owned by Leo Greenwald who also worked for distributor P.D.C. The other company was Champ Publishing Company, which published several issues of Champ Comics. Both of these companies sold (or by some accounts gave) their titles to early Harvey companies (in this case Alfred Harvey) whose titles were also being distributed by P.D.C.

Speed Publishing Company bought (and/or was created to publish) Speed Comics, previously published by Brookwood Publishing Company, Inc., which was associated with Frank Z. Temerson. See also other Temerson companies especially the concurrently active Tem Publishing Co., Inc. and Nita Publishing Co., Inc. as well as their immediate successor Helnit Publishing Co., Inc. which published the initial issues of later Harvey series Green Hornet Comics.
