Synopsis for "The Kiss of Death"

Having traveled to Los Angeles, Satana happens upon a mob led on by politician Harry Gotham, attacking a Satanic cult called the Church of the Dark Father. Turning them away with mere words, Satana later feeds on another life, before meeting Ruth Cummins, a member of the cult. Satana spies a mark lefy by Satan on Ruth and hopes to use it as a means of opening a doorway to meet her father. However in trying to do so, she finds the doorway to hell blocked by the Four.

When assassins hired by Gotham break into Ruth's home, they manage to murder Ruth, but fall victim to Satana's succubi powers. She then tracks down Gotham to his office where she murders him as well.
