Red Devil: The Red Menace #6

SPEAK OF THE DEVIL
When the nation's number one oil company becomes a target of terrorists, everyone naturally blames the usual rabid environmentalists. After all, when you're as big as Dallaco Oil and its larger-than-life CEO Jim Bob Slickens, you get a pretty good sense of who's painted that bull's-eye on the back of your ten-gallon Stetson.

Except this time Dallaco's Mideast well fires and ocean oil spills seem to have attracted an enemy a few millennia older than the Sierra Club. Just who is the mysterious red fiend with the crooked horns who seems hellbent on disrupting the world's petroleum supply?

America runs on oil, and Director Simon Kirk of MIC vows to keep the motor running come hell or high water. Kirk calls in his two top men to make a deal with the devil: the permanent kind. Podge Becket and Dr. Thaddeus Wainwright are determined to get to the bottom of things, but soon discover that giving the devil his due is harder than even they imagined. It turns out the road to hell is paved not with good intentions, but with the bodies of innocents.

The Red Menace vows to raise hell and put a stop to the evil figure with the fiery eyes, but this time, for the first time, the masked man might not have a snowball's chance...
