Rex Morgan

Rex Morgan is an Italian-created adventure character who debuted in the Swedish publication Höken in 1957, produced by Antonio and Enzo Chiomenti. His stories appeared in a short 1957–1958 run, making him a rare international comics curiosity of the Silver Age.

Silver Age curiosity Rex Morgan made his debut in 1957 courtesy of creators Antonio and Enzo Chiomenti, turning up in the pages of Formatic's Höken — a publication that gives this character a distinctly international flavor from the very start. With only 17 catalog appearances concentrated in a brief 1957–1958 window, Rex Morgan is a rare find, the kind of figure that rewards the dedicated digger willing to venture beyond the mainstream. He shares his adventures with a colorful cast including André, Chuck, Stan, Hendrickson, and the title character Höken himself, making those Höken issues a lively ensemble affair. For collectors with a taste for Silver Age rarities off the beaten path, Rex Morgan is exactly the sort of discovery that makes the hunt worthwhile.
