Harvey Comics (also known as Harvey World Famous Comics, Harvey Publications, Harvey Comics Entertainment, Harvey Hits, Harvey Illustrated Humor, and Harvey Picture Magazines) was an American comic book publisher, founded in New York City by Alfred Harvey in 1941, after buying out the small publisher Brookwood Publications. His brothers, Robert B. and Leon Harvey, joined shortly after. The company soon got into licensed characters, which by the 1950s, became the bulk of their output. The artist Warren Kremer is closely associated with the publisher.

The Harvey stable of characters include Richie Rich and his friends, Casper the Friendly Ghost and his friends, the Harvey Girls Little Audrey, Little Dot, Little Lotta and their friends, Baby Huey, Sad Sack, Stumbo the Giant and more.

In the early 90's Harvey Comics transitioned to Harvey Classics, focusing on reprints. Reprints of old Harvey comics, but also Harvey licensed reprints of other studio's characters like Woody Woodpecker, Pink Panther, Popeye, various Hanna Barbera characters and Tom & Jerry.

The Tom & Jerry comics mostly reprint comics from Dell/Western Publishing. But some were more current comics reprinted from European Semic issues.

These Harvey Tom and Jerry prints were criticized for some of the dialogue wiped from the balloons.
