In "Secret of the Lost River!", Rex the Wonder Dog and his young friend Danny find themselves in a wild adventure when their cranky uncle leaves them behind to prospect in the remote Painted Mountains. With a killer tiger on the loose and the uncle in danger, Rex must use his wits and courage to set a trap, save his friend, and signal for help—all before the mountain shadows grow too deep. Written by John Broome and brought to life with dynamic art by Gil Kane (pencils) and Bernard Sachs (inks), this 1953 DC classic features a thrilling cover by Gil Kane and Frank Giacoia.

Secret of the Lost River!

In "Secret of the Lost River!", Rex the Wonder Dog teams up with his young friends Danny and Susie on a daring expedition into a mysterious cave rumored to hide the source of a vanished river. When a giant bat and a sudden cave-in send them plunging into underwater tunnels, Rex’s courage and quick thinking lead them through the dark—only to emerge at a breathtaking, never-before-seen waterfall, now bearing his name.

Monkey Business on the Briny Deep!

In "Monkey Business on the Briny Deep!", Sheriff Chase and his sharp-witted partner, Bobo the Detective Chimp, trade the precinct for a peaceful fishing trip—until a murder and a heist sink the getaway. As the Sheriff digs into suspicious crew members, Bobo stays focused on the catch, only to outsmart a masked attacker with a well-placed fishing rod. When the net finally pulls up a surprising prize, the duo’s vacation takes a turn no one saw coming—especially not the man in the newspaper photo.

Trail of the Striped Terror!

In "Trail of the Striped Terror!", Rex the Wonder Dog and his young friend Danny find themselves in a wild chase when a killer tiger escapes the circus and heads straight for the Painted Mountains—where Danny’s cranky uncle is alone and unprotected. With quick thinking and fearless courage, Rex dodges a charging bison, sets a clever trap using branches, and even signals for help with a torch, all while keeping the old man safe. The adventure proves that even the most unlikely heroes can make a difference when the odds are stacked high.
