Hot Stuff, the Little Devil #21

Harvey Comics' pint-sized infernal charmer is in fine form on this 1960 cover, where Hot Stuff the Little Devil twirls a lasso of living flame over a campfire that seems to have a mischievous face of its own. The playful tug-of-war between the little red devil and his fiery rope makes for an utterly cheerful image — equal parts mischief and cartoon warmth. Marked as a "Top Toy Special," issue #21 is a delightful snapshot of Harvey Comics' knack for turning the devilish into the downright adorable.
