Entertainment is a now defunct publisher of English translated manga which served as the US subsidiary of Coamix, which was founded by former Shonen Jump editor Nobuhiko Horie and manga artist Tsukasa Hojo (of City Hunter fame). The company published the English manga anthology Raijin Comics, a U.S. equivalent to the Japanese Weekly Comic Bunch and published many of the same titles (Fist of the Blue Sky and City Hunter), as well titles from other magazines such as the Japanese Weekly Shonen Jump.
