He was created by Jack Bradbury, Steve Steere and Vic Lockman. He first appeared as an industrial spy who wanted to acquire Gyro's inventions, particularly his hair growing formula as Emil was bald.

In "The Goofs of Super Goof" (February, 1970), Emil was introduced as an new opponent for Super Goof.
