Red, birth name unknown, was an associate of professional racketeer Tony Sardo,[1] living in the United States. Sardo and Red attempted to use the original Human Torch to run a "fire-insurance" racket on various businesses. Torch got wise to their scheme however, and confronted Sardo's gang at his mansion. Red attempted to hide under a car for safety, but Torch stood on the roof of the car and melted it onto Red's prone body, killing him.[2]
