History

"Rafael Sandoval" was a rookie member of the city council in Dos Rios, Texas who created a crimefighting alter ego when stymied trying to pursue the case of a serial insurance arsonist via official channels. He became El Diablo, an idea based on an old boxing persona, and local legends surrounding the Devil.

His subsequent efforts in the Texas area involved battles with illicit drug smugglers using maquiladora covers for their activities, a hunt for a serial killer, and conflicts with human-smuggling operations. He often struggled with his conscience over how best to serve the people of Dos Rios.

Sandoval has appeared several times in contact with the Justice League, most notably once he is possessed by the spirit of an Aztec god-emperor. His most recent appearance was in the Villains United Infinite Crisis Special, when he was pulled out of retirement by Oracle to skirmish against the escaping supervillains unleashed by The Society worldwide. He was nearly killed by a member of the Royal Flush Gang during a battle at Enclave M in Mexico's Sonora Valley. The warden of the facility saved El Diablo from death by shooting the villain in the chest with a sniper rifle. Afterwards, the warden's throat was immediately slit by a flying card.
