YES!!! WAY TO GO RUDY! And Frosty!
Seriously all that for some stupid sketches!? I mean yeah Andy Warhol Is Something amount the art world, but seriously!?
Do you have an idea about the possible values of this sketches today? Probably not.
And the winner is the comment having suggested the iron thrust.
Carles.-
As for the price of the sketches, rather than on the quality or rarity of any artwork produced by Warhol, it would ultimately depend more on the house who would decide to put them up for auction...

all that serious storytelling and drama and then the cheap joke
in this best of all possible worlds
Quick! Someone make a pun about the comic!
Yeah, Rudy! Old Guys Rock!!
Never underestimate the mature queer.
Well, looking at Christie's auction house website, an Andy Warhol sketch of Tennessee Williams, nothing more than "graphite on paper", was sold for an estimated $12,000 - $18,000.
So depending on how many sketches Rudy has, and their quality, the stash is probably worth a minimum of the low six figures, and could be worth quite a bit more than that.
Oops, I just re-read the previous entries, and Rudy says he still has "two" sketches left. So maybe not all that much, but quite possibly looking at $50,000, maybe more if the subject is particularly interesting.
I would of liked to see Frosty drawn more vicious, with raised hackles and more fangs and drool.
Actually, sketches of original art by Andy Warhol from very early in his career, while he was still a commercial illustrator, (which is when Rudy met him and got the sketches, in the late 1950s), are exceedingly rare. One recently went for £1.25m, (which, in US dollars is 1.63 million dollars!) So, those sketches Rudy has could be worth quite a bundle!
that last panel - luv it.
I expected a more realistic ending and plot line. The dog saving him? Really? Oh well...next story...
Jack
Realistic? The neighbors kid (George-4 yrs old) wandered off and our dog went with him. Another neighbor saw George wandering down the road and went to bring him home. Our dog stepped between them, bared his teeth and wouldn't let this "stranger" near George. Then took George's sleeve in his mouth and led (dragged) him home.
I mostly like the way this turned out. My only issue is that if he really hit him hard enough to knock him out, he probably did some brain damage at least, and may have killed or crippled him. Whapping somebody upside the head doesn't work in real life like it does on TV or in the movies.
Diana, I appreciate that observation, and I thought carefully about showing this sort of violence in the strip. The fact that Robert has stated he was about to kill Rudy, I think, justifies Rudy taking whatever action he needs to to protect himself. But I do hear what you're saying, and I agree... such actions should not be taken lightly, in real life or in the comics.
You know Greg I have the same problem whenever I write a story which has historical references--people accuse me of not doing my research. There's only one thing for it: hit'em on the head with an iron.
