"Are you acquainted with the Reddy Kilowatt character? Well, we made comic books for them. 1946 was the first one, that's before I got here.... Most of this stuff was done before my time. In fact, the old 1946 edition was actually taken from a Walter Lantz moving picture. And I imagine Walter Lantz provided the artwork." — Bill Gaines, 1955-56 interview with Fred Von Bernewitz, printed in Grant Geissman's Tales of Terror: The EC Companion. Fantagraphics: 2000, pp. 275-276.
