Ralph Wolf and Sam Sheepdog in

WOOL TO LIVE

WARNING: This comic contains themes of abuse and trauma.

I recently discovered some more obscure Looney Tunes characters: Ralph Wolf and Sam Sheepdog . I found them very cute, and there’s a lot of awesome, adorable art of them.

The concept of the cartoon is that they’re enemies during work hours and

friends outside of work. Basically a workplace satire.

The original shorts ended with a very wholesome episode where they walk home together. Unfortunately, there were more recent shorts of Sam and Ralph, and I found them repulsive and mean spirited. Ralph is humiliated and treated like dirt even outside of work. It doesn’t feel like workplace satire anymore. Instead, it feels like watching a character being abused in a toxic work environment he can’t leave.

So I did what any rational person would do. I drew an overly serious gay fan comic.

I saw another famous character in #FinishTheScribble #206 scribbleintoart ...the @warnerbrosentertainment Sheep Dog, Ralph. ...or is it Sam? I have trouble telling them apart.
