Character Information Gender: Male ♂ Status: Alive Hair: Brown Occupation: Chief of Police First appearance: "Homer vs. the Eighteenth Amendment" Voiced by: Dave Thomas

Rex Banner is a U.S. Treasury officer in Washington, D.C. briefly sent to Springfield to uphold Prohibition, and to replace Clancy Wiggum as Chief of Police.

History

His main objective was capturing the "Beer Baron", a rum-runner who was actually Homer. When this was finally done by Wiggum, Rex was fired, both from his job as chief, and from the main mechanism of punishment for breaking the ancient prohibition law: catapult.

He is seen briefly when Homer tries to drive his car away from the World Trade Center with a parking boot attached.

Once, Mr. Burns hired him to track down Burns' girlfriend. When he asked Mr. Burns to pay him, Burns pushed a button which opened a trapdoor in the floor. Fortunately for Banner, the trapdoor opened on Mr. Burns instead of him. He is not seen again in this episode.
