Ed's Notes: Hey kids! TAKE DRUGS! That will make you a SUPERHERO! Well... This guy was written before steroids took over professional sports.  The 2nd Edition Background/Roster Book also gives him a Connection to Infinity Inc. (High). Which... kind of makes sense, since his kid, Rick Tyler (Hourman II) is a member. But Rex was a JSA man, and never part on Infinity Inc., so... makes more sense to omit it, IMHO.  The BG/R Book also gives him 90 Hero Points, but WaW gives him the same 75 as the 3rd Edition Who's Who. So... it's 75. Finally the 2nd Edition Miraclo Pills grant Str: 9.
