Publisher: Play Press
Years in Operation: 1986 - 2014
Disclose Detail
Country: Flag Italy Web Site: Brands: 5 Indicia Publishers: 2 Series: 79 Printings: 1413 Disclose Notes: Started as "Edizioni Play Press", rebranded as "Play Press Publishing" in 1998, then "Play Media Company" in 2007. In 2013 Play Media Company transferred the ownership of all its remaining comics magazines to "Play Lifestyle Media", but in 2014 both companies applied for bankruptcy ending their activity. These days, a new-born "Edizioni Play Press" doesn't publish comics anymore.
A few issues of various series were published under the branding of "News Market srl", in late '93 - early '94 probably due to a pause of Play Press' publishing activity for financial reasons. "News Market" was a sister company to Play Press, sharing the same headquarters. It does still exists, alongside its reborn "Play Press" sister brand.   Does this data need corrections?
