Second CD entitled, "HUSKY BOY", also released under

with his very own segment, "Rex Files: Pinoy Undercover" which
aired internationally on ABS-CBN's The Filipino Channel satellite
service.
Presently
on his website, he has released in collaboration with animator Dino
Ignacio a web cartoon version of his 1997 routine, "Maritess
vs. The Superfriends". The cartoon at Fractalcow.com has gained
a worldwide audience, even among non-Filipinos. In 2002, he returned
to the Philippines to do standup for a new and untouched audience,
selling out theaters and concert halls bridging the gap of comedy
traditions in both Asia and the US..
In 2003, fans saw the release of his very first live comedy DVD
entitled, "HELLA PINOY", which was shot in San Francisco.

comedy show produced featuring a Filipino American standup comic.
In
2005, came the release of his follow-up DVD entitled, "Badass
Madapaka" filmed live at the historic Wiltern LG Theater in
Los Angeles. This DVD also contains footage from his tours
in Manila, Honolulu and San Francisco. We get a glimpse into
his life on the road and the unique audiences Rex gets in
front of. In 2006, "Rex In The City" debuted on MTV Philippines
airwaves. This is the first ever Stand-up/Sit-com to broadcast
in Asia. With all of this happening, he is also in production
for a first-ever Filipino American animated series, "The Nut
Shack", which is to air on Myx and The Filipino Channel.
