Big Boss #47
In "Le secret de l'œuf fossile," Rex finds himself far from his usual beat when a chance flight takes him into a high-stakes sky-jack situation, his keen nose for danger leading the way through a fog-shrouded mountain crash. With John Broome's sharp storytelling and Gil Kane's dynamic art bringing the tension to life, this gripping adventure sees Rex track the criminals from wreckage to town, proving his worth in a case that lands him a surprising new title. The cover by Dick Dillin and Sheldon Moldoff captures the mystery with a striking, atmospheric image.
Rex, a dog mistaken for luggage, earns his seat in the cabin when a kind stewardess lets him ride along. When two crooks hijack the plane and it crashes into a fog-shrouded mountain, Rex slips free and treks through the mist to a nearby town, leading authorities back to the wreckage—where he outsmarts the criminals. Back home, his bravery earns him a citation and a new title: Airline Detective.
