Break out the birthday cake — REX MORGAN M.D. hit the big 7-0 this week! Looking’ good, Rex! Join current writer and artist Terry Beatty for a look back over seventy years of medical mysteries and hospital hijinks and a look forward as the strip continues to evolve and modernize in today’s ever-changing world.
