X Files season 10 is a new ongoing comic series meant to
pick up after season 9, while ignoring but never in conflict with the X Files I
Want to believe movie. Chris Carter
shares a writing credit with Joe Harris and Michael Walsh provides the art, but
after nearly a decade since the show went off the air is there anything still
left?
Yes there is still story to be told and issue #1 establishes
where Mulder, Scully and Skinner are now
very effectively. A new threat that is literally
lurking in the shadows is introduced that drags Mulder and Scully back into
their work with the X Files after leaving the FBI. The simple art by Walsh works well, it has more
of an old pulp edge than typical comic book fare that works well within the
world of the X Files. The story and writing
are intriguing, and sets up this new plotline well, however issue #2 will be
the true determiner of this series. If
the cool set ups yield some pay off this 5 issue arc will have me hooked. If not it will probably be a decent but ultimately
forgettable series like the the tops comics from the 90’s.
