The New York Evening Journal, founded in 1896, was an afternoon newspaper published in New-York and owned by William Randolph Hearst (1863-1951), the businessman and publisher who built up the American’s largest newspaper chain and whose methods profoundly influenced journalism. Hearst as a pioneering media magnate became an inspiration for Orson Welles' "Citizen Kane" 1941 movie.

The "Mandrake the Magician" daily strips were published in the "New York Evening Journal" from June 11, 1934 (the very first strip of the series) until the newspaper merged with the "New York American" (on June 24, 1937) in one publication renamed "The New York Journal American" in 1937.

Other comics published in "The New York Evening Journal": "Secret Agent X-9", "Red Barry", "Buck Rogers", "The Phantom", "Tim Tyler's Luck".
