    Lansdale & Lansdale create an interesting case for Agents Mulder and Scully. Tapping into the elements of the Texas setting both Lansdale & Lansdale and Califano pack the issue with loads of local color, rounding out another terrific issue. Read Full Review

    Final Verdict: 8.9 " Full of heart, humour and heebie-jeebies, this could easily have stood against some of the TV show's best hours. Is there higher praise for an "X-Files" comic than that? Read Full Review

    #1 has pulled me in and I certainly want to know what is going on in the second part. The artwork isn't perfect but the story delivered exactly what I wanted from the X-Files, no big story arcs or conspiracies, just a good "what's going on here" investigation. Read Full Review

    Word Of The Nerd - Brent Jackson

    Jul 17, 2018

    The "monster of the week" episodes were always my favorite X-Files episodes, so this Case Files series seemed to be custom made for me to enjoy. I continued to be impressed by how well these writing teams have captured the tone of the show and successfully transferred it to comic book form. The art continues to be a good match of character likeness while not eliminating the individual artist's style. If you are an X-Files fan you should go back and pick up the two issues of Florida Man and then jump on board with TheX-Files: Case Files " Hoot Goes There #1. Read Full Review
