A friend of the devil is a friend of mine

Movie poster for Hot Stuff the Little Devil directed by Jerry Bruckheimer? Concept art for the Saturday morning cartoon show Mephisto 'n' Pals? A scene from The Devil Wears Prada II: The Story Continues? Or...just a wickedly impressive Silver Surfer full-page splash by the incomparable John Buscema? You make the call!

Silver Surfer #3
Full-page splash from Silver Surfer #3 (December 1968), script by Stan Lee, pencils by John Buscema, inks by Joe Sinnott, letters by Sam Rosen

So, happy Halloween Eve to you too, you little devils! And if you get home before daylight, try and get some sleep tonight, okay?

Jerry Bruckheimer's a producer, not a director. You're thinking of Michael Bay, or possibly Tony Scott.

I adore Buscema's work on Silver Surfer. It's too bad that it was tied down by a limiting concept (Surfer trapped on Earth...boring) and Stan lee's waning skills as a writer. Though the Mephisto issues were pretty cool.
