“Clyde Bruckman’s Final Repose” brings a new philosophy to The X-Files, straight from one-of-a-kind writer Darin Morgan (“Humbug.”) Previously, on The X-Files, we have seen commentary about belief vs. skepticism, and religion vs. science. However, this episode introduces to the series the concept of caustic, cynical nihilism; the notion that life is without intrinsic purpose or value, and perhaps even absurd to its core. In a series that often concerns faith, commitment, truth, and “never giving up,” this (brief) turn towards nihilism nonetheless -- ... [Continua a leggere]

As it turns out, to celebrate the show reaching this milestone, there will be a big reunion panel next month at San Diego Comic-Con. SDCCBlog.com gave us the heads up about The X-Files reunion, noting that the latest issue of TV Guide Magazine has an ad for the panel, which will take place on Thursday, July 18th and will feature series creator Chris Carter and writer/producers David Amann, Vince Gilligan, Howard Gordon, Darin Morgan, Glen Morgan, John Shiban and Jim Wong.

IDW Publishing brought Agents Mulder and Scully, two of sci-fi's most iconic characters, out of retirement this week with the release of "The X-Files: Season 10" #1 by writer Joe Harris and artist Michael Walsh. The new ongoing series picks up the characters' story several years after the finale of the cult TV show that lasted for nine seasons before ending in 2002. "X-Files: Season 10" follows in the footsteps of other cancelled TV shows that have seen their lives renewed and extended via popular comic runs like "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" and "Angel," featuring original, in-continuity ta ...

I’ve written about this idea before in specific relation to an earlier season two entry, “The Host,” but The X-Files strikes me as one of the most potent horror series in television history because it often deals at point-blank range with the underneath “sausage-making” of our industrial, technological, late-20th century culture. In terms of “The Host,” the entire episode spawned an uncomfortable awareness of what happens when you flush the toilet. Where does the waste go? What happens to it? How is it treated? How is it disposed? And finally, what ... [Continua a leggere]

The Good It wasn't until I heard the announcement of this series that I realized how much I missed the series. With Joe Harris joined by Chris Carter, the show's creator, you know it will be true to the feel of the show. The show dealt with FBI Agent Fox Mulder and his quest to find the answers to the unknown and paranormal field. He believed his sister was abducted when they were young. His crusade resulted with him in charge of the X-Files in the basement of the FBI building. He investigated the strange and paranormal cases. Dana Scully was brought on to try to debunk the cases. Things pro ... [Continua a leggere]

It’s natural to approach a new X-Filescomic with questions, and after reading the first issue of “Season 10,” there are some I can help with and some that I can’t. Would a “Season 10″ pick up where season 9 left off, or maybe the 2008 film? (Has it really been that long since “I Want To Believe” was released? And, in retrospect, doesn’t that really sound like the title of a Journey song?) Will the series focus on Mulder and Scully, or Doggett and Reyes? (Yeah, right.) Will the focus be on the extended, interconnected “mythology” ... [Continua a leggere]

“Previously on The X-Files… For years, FBI agent Fox Mulder and Dana Scully toiled in the X-Files Unit, a one-office division of the Bureau dealing with cases deemed unsolvable and related to unexplained phenomena. During their investigations, Mulder, the “believer,” and Scully, the “skeptic,” delved into the occult, religion, urban legends, conspiracy theories, UFOs, alien abductions, and genetic engineering. Eventually, both agents left the FBI and began a new life together in peaceful anonymity, which endured until today…” It’s bee ... [Continua a leggere]

Lo sapevate che The X Files avrà una decima stagione in versione fumetto? Come già Buffy e Smallville, anche la celebre serie della FOX con protagonisti gli agenti dell’FBI Mulder e Scully proseguirà la sua narrazione su carta, e contrariamente a quanto fatto nei film e nei fumetti precedenti, verrà ripresa una delle tematiche forti dello show, ossia le bugie del governo americano sull’esistenza degli alieni. La notizia di un ritorno di X Files in versione fumetto ha cominciato a circolare ad aprile, quando IDW Publishing, colosso americano nel settore ... [Continua a leggere]

For “X-Files” fans, it seemed like some of the show’s greatest mysteries would remain unsolved. Like whatever happened to that alien colonization plan? Did they just give up? Is Scully’s baby going to save the world? And did no one else really notice that giant spaceship taking off from Antarctica? The series finale, in 2002, was a little vague. And the second movie, “The X-Files: I Want to Believe,” didn’t deal with the show’s mythology at all. Dammit — the cornfields, the bees, the oil. Will the Smoking Man ever get a novel published? ...

PREVIEWSworld: The X-Files Season 10 #1 kicks off an ongoing series that picks up where the TV show left off. How much of the previous 9 seasons were you both familiar with, or did it involve all-night Roku-streaming or DVD-watching marathons to get up to speed? Did you approach doing this series first as fans, or as creators? Joe Harris: I'm a huge fan of the original series and watched just about every episode during the first run. Many lonely teenage Friday nights during those early seasons for me.  Once IDW reached out to me about potentially taking on this series, though, I did ... [Continua a leggere]

Special Agents Mulder and Scully are finally back this week as IDW Publishing launches the first issue of “X-Files” Season 10 from writer Joe Harris and artist Michael Walsh. The “X-Files” is one of the most beloved sci-fi TV series of all time, so you can imagine the pressure hanging over Harris and Walsh right now, but rest assured these two are just as big of fans as anyone else. I spoke to series writer Joe Harris about some of their plans for Season 10, working with Chris Carter, and the plans for a new season after a decade off air. Bloody-disgusting: Fans have ...
