HOT STUFF, THE LITTLE DEVIL: Master Thief

Take a good look at this character. He looks kinda cute and harmless doesn't he?
Don't let him fool you!
Behind that sweet, lovable exterior beats the heart of a hardened criminal.
Today we'll look at the notorious history of this fellow, known as "Hot Stuff" A.K.A. "Little Red".

from HOT STUFF #24, June 1960

His earliest known exploits occurred at Granny Smith's Orchard on the afternoon of June 12th:



The novelty of stealing apples for fun had apparently lost all its appeal, and he then moved up to more serious offenses.
The suspect was next seen breaking and entering the MACEBEL'S department store on the night of August the 17th.







The suspect is considered armed and dangerous. Do not attempt to capture him alone. Call the CRIMESTOPPERS hotline if you have any information concerning his whereabouts.
