Hot Stuff, the little devil. from Harvey Comics. There was a she-devil, who was a friend of his. No, not Charma–she was a pixie. This one was a devil, red skin, black hair, & a little taller than Hot Stuff. ---

You’re not thinking of Wendy, the Good Little Witch are you? The only other female character I can think of is his aunt, but she’s not mentioned in this article. > **[Hot Stuff](https://harveycomicsdatabase.fandom.com/wiki/Hot_Stuff)** > > Hot Stuff the Little Devil is a comic book character who first appeared in Hot Stuff #1, published by Harvey Comics in October 1957. The character didn't first appear as a back-up feature in another book or receive a trial run in Harvey Hits. Imbued... ---

[The Grand Comics Database](https://comics.org) tries to list every character who ever appeared in comic books. I’m guessing any such character would have been in [Devil Kids Starring Hot Stuff](https://www.comics.org/series/1566/) but I don’t see any way to get a list of characters without clicking on each issue and not all of them have been indexed. ---

As expected, a Google image search for _hot stuff devil girl_ had some interesting results. When I was a kid I had a limited supply of comics and read them over and over. It is interesting to see a page or set of panels that I haven’t seen or thought about in close to 40 years and recognize it instantly. Then track down the issue and recognize almost every single page. That last happened recently was with an _Uncle Scrooge_ issue where he, Donald, the Beagle Boys and the money bin are shrunk and almost eaten by ants. This was another one. Haven’t thought of it in forever, knew it like the back of my hand when I saw it. But back to the main point, there is a devil girl in it. > **[Hot Stuff #145](http://crapboxofcthulhu.blogspot.com/2018/10/hot-stuff-145.html?m=1)** > > A blog reviewing bad comic books and bad comic art (If you want to read comics online, google _read comics online_.) ---

Then track down the issue and recognize almost every single page. That happened to me, but it was with an old issue of Playboy I filched from my dad at age 12, then rediscovered over 4 decades later in a used book store. Every single photo and cartoon in that issue triggered an unbelievably intense surge of memories and emotions, even the non-sexy stuff. I of course bought the issue. ---

The Harvey Fan Wikis, while not mentioning anyone specifically, do say that numerous cousins appeared in Hot Stuff’s comics. This may have been one of those. ---

No, not Wendy, & not the Aunt either. ---

She had black hair, rather straight. ---

I have a faint recollection of a girl devil like Hot Stuff, but it’s a memory overshadowed by Wendy the Good Witch who I fell in love with around age 3 or 4. Man, she saved Caspar’s butt a bunch of times. ---

Hot Stuff’s mom had straight black hair. ---

[MyComicShop.com](https://www.mycomicshop.com/search?tid=196551&pgi=101) might have a listing for one or more of the issues you’re thinking about. I’d completely forgotten about Hot Stuff, but I read some of his comics when I was a kid (along with Richie Rich and other Harvey titles). One story I now recall is Hot Stuff eating hot peppers. ---

She did not appear in the original series. That series.
