Deucedly slapdash scripting there!

Anyway, how does one recognize this work as by Rudy Palais, if it doesn't have sweat and spittle flying off the characters?

I do recognise it. Page 21 there is the way the character holds his hand in front of his head. Just like a similar picture in the "the Pioneers" classics illustrated. And the galloping horses are definitely his work, not to mention the arrangement of the panels. The structure of the figures are a bit false sometimes but there is a certain drama in this man's work that has always attracted me. Thanks for posting his work. I find it exciting seeing how he tackles different subjects.
