- Avon Publications, Inc. was an independent publisher from 1941 to June 1959, when it was bought by the Hearst Corporation. Joseph Meyers and Edna Meyers Williams were the publishers. Their comics were distributed by ANC (American News Company) up to 1952, and by Hearst after that.
Avon became an imprint of HarperCollins Publishers in 2010.
