In "Ghost Fighter," DC's beloved canine hero Rex the Wonder Dog proves his worth in a tense Korean frontline mission, where his handler assigns him to watch over inexperienced green soldiers. As the young troops dismiss him as a nuisance, Rex moves ahead in eerie silence—disabling traps, drawing enemy fire, and revealing a hidden tank—leaving the squad baffled by the sudden chaos, though his handler sees the truth in every move. Written by Robert Kanigher and brought to life with sharp, dynamic art by Gil Kane (pencils) and Sy Barry (inks), this 1952 issue features a cover by Gil Kane and Sy Barry that captures Rex’s stealthy intensity.
