Rex

Edizioni Bianconi's Rex (1976–1978) was a brisk 14-issue Italian comic series anchored by the consistent, expressive art of Paolo Ghirardi. A creature feature with a twist, it followed the adventures of a noble, intelligent dog—perhaps a St. Bernard—who served as a loyal, heroic companion in a world of crime and danger. The series stands as a charming artifact of late-1970s Italian fumetti, blending animal-led action with the period's flair for dramatic, pulp-inspired storytelling.
