December 29, 2010: Superman Artwork Among Items Stolen from NYC Apartment

A print of the Andy Warhol painting “Superman” was among nearly half a dozen pieces of art by Roy Lichtenstein and Warhol stolen from a New York City apartment by burglars who broke through a wall.
The “Superman” print is part of his 1980s “Myths” series featuring fictional characters with mass-cultural appeal, including Mickey Mouse and Uncle Sam.
Thieves also lifted a Carl Fudge oil painting, “Live Cat”, and other valuables in the heist which authorities estimate happened sometime during Thanksgiving week, when owner and art collector Robert Romanoff was away.
