| | William Gaines - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Bill Gaines was the son of Max Gaines, publisher of the All-American Comics division of DC Comics and also an influential figure in the history of comics, having tested the idea of selling comics on newsstands, inspiring the creation of Wonder Woman among other achievements. |
 | | His horror comics were not simply compilations of horrifying visuals, but subtle, satiric approaches to horror with genuine dilemmas and startling outcomes, along with horrifying visual graphics, to be sure, often with stories drawn from classic authors, such as Edgar Allan Poe and H. |
 | | Gaines's comics may have appealed to adults, but comic books were considered by the general public to be aimed at children. |
