Wizard Entertainment, formerly known as Wizard Press, was a New York-based publisher of ''Wizard'' and ''ToyFare'' magazines, along with various special issues for each magazine and the annual Toy Wishes holiday guide. Since the first issue of ''Wizard'' magazine was published in 1991, Wizard Entertainment grew from a publisher of one monthly magazine to a multi-title publishing company with diversified interests in branded products and related convention operations. The magazine originally started as a price guide to comics but evolved into focusing squarely on pop-culture, specifically targeting young adult males. The magazine ultimately featured a price guide to comics and action figures in the back of the magazine. It has since gone digital, closing down its print publications on January 24, 2011.〔Melrose, Kevin (January 24, 2011). ("Breaking: Wizard and ToyFare magazines fold" ).

''ToyFare'' has since ceased publication. In December 2007, Darren Sanchez was named Vice President of Production at Wizard Entertainment.〔("Wizard Entertainment Names Darren Sanchez VP of Manufacturing" ).

Wizard Entertainment will also cease publication of its sister magazine, ''Toyfare''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Wizard Entertainment」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
