    • The clone who took the name "Rex" was grown on Kamino like his fellow clone troopers, bred to be among the best soldiers in the galaxy. Rex received additional command training and earned the rank of captain, overseeing Torrent Company within the 501st Battalion. The Republic's clone army saw its first action against Count Dooku's Separatists during the Battle of Geonosis. Rex and his troopers fought well, earning veteran status within the clone army.
    • Soon after Geonosis came the Battle of Christophsis, in which Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi led Rex's unit against the droid forces of General Loathsom. Rex held the line against Loathsom's droids so Skywalker and his new Padawan Ahsoka Tano could take out the enemy's shield generator. With his superior officer Commander Cody, Rex also helped uncover a traitor within the clone ranks.
    • The triumph on Christophsis gave Rex little time to rest. He and his men immediately accompanied General Skywalker to Teth, where they assaulted a mountaintop monastery containing Jabba the Hutt's kidnapped nephew, Rotta. Using their AT-TE walkers, Rex and his clones scaled the vertical cliff side and fought their way inside. The arrival of dark side assassin Asajj Ventress complicated things, but Rex kept fighting until the Jedi made it offworld with the young Huttlet.
    • Rex and Commander Cody arrived to inspect a unit of rookie clone troopers at a listening post on the Rishi moon. Separatist droid commandos had already taken over, and Rex and Cody teamed up with the rookies to regain control of the facility. Rex inducted the survivors into the 501st Battalion.
    • General Grievous planned to strike at the planet Bothawui, but the Republic arranged an ambush for the enemy armada. Rex and other clones placed AT-TEs on the drifting rocks of a planetary ring, and fired on the Separatist flagship when Grievous least expected it.
    • After the victory at Bothawui, a follow-up mission required the Republic to destroy the Separatist outpost at Skytop Station. Rex accompanied Anakin and Ahsoka inside the station to plant explosive charges. General Grievous nearly killed Rex, but Ahsoka distracted the Separatist cyborg. The group survived Skytop and escaped as the station sank into the lower atmosphere.
    • An urgent call from Quell put Captain Rex into action to rescue Jedi General Aayla Secura from a Separatist rocket droid attack. Rex and Ahsoka hooked up with Secura and Commander Bly and then escaped in a frigate.
    • However, their blind hyperspace jump ended in a crash landing on Maridun. With Anakin injured and out of commission, Rex watched over the campsite while Commander Bly, Ahsoka, and Aayla searched for help. Rex barely survived a close encounter with a hungry mastiff phalone before members of the local Lurmen colony arrived to lend a hand.
    • The Separatists arrived on Maridun soon after. Led by General Lok Durd, they intended to use the planet as a testing ground for their defoliator -- a new weapon that would exterminate all life inside its radius but leave battle droids unharmed. Captain Rex and Commander Bly helped the Lurmen defend their village, while Anakin Skywalker destroyed the enemy's weapon.
    • On the frozen world of Ord Plutonia, Captain Rex agreed to protect the Pantoran chairman Chi Cho from the local Talz tribes. Tensions between the Pantoran delegation and the Talz soon exploded. Though Rex did his best to hold off the enemy raiders, the chairman died from his injuries. His successor, Senator Riyo Chuchi, wisely listened to the Talz and hammered out a peace agreement.
    • To halt an outbreak of the notorious Blue Shadow Virus, Rex participated in an assault on an underground research laboratory on Naboo. Rex and his troopers rescued Padmé Amidala and Jar Jar Binks from Dr. Nuvo Vindi, but accidentally exposed themselves to the deadly virus. Fortunately, Anakin and Obi-Wan tracked down an antidote and restored Rex to fighting shape.
    • On a mission to stop the bounty hunter Cad Bane who had absconded with a Jedi holocron, Anakin Skywalker exercised his trademark improvisation. Skywalker ordered Rex to take a pressurized AT-TE and use it as a boarding craft to land aboard Bane's retreating frigate.
