Hosts, Part 2 of 2: Missing persons reports point to the return of the "giant, bloodsucking worm" known as the Flukeman, sending Mulder to Martha's Vineyard to invesigate and Scully to Quantico to examine the supposed remains of the creature. And what they both discover lies beyond belief and terror!
I knocked the last issue pretty hard, but this one had me on the edge of my seat like the best episodes of the television series used to. Harris also manages to fully utilize the fact that he is working without the budget constraints of a network production to give us some pretty great visuals, all of which are once again drawn beautifully l by Elena Casagrande.

Good issue. Good arc. Good everything. Read Full Review
It's a credit to Harris that the dialog and overall tone retains a level of authenticity so as to send any long time X Files fan in a giddy spiral of nostalgia. On the flip side, any newcomers to the minds and world of Mulder and Scully will settle in as Season Ten continues to create its own mythology, while building on (and flirting with) the established continuity of the television series. Issue seven, while not as polished as the last, gives a fun read with a satisfying conclusion to the first case taken on from the newly re opened X Files division of the FBI. Read Full Review
While issue #7 doesn't provide a top-shelf story, it does provide a delightful trip down memory lane as readers get to revel in all the nastiness of Flukeman one more time. Read Full Review
The adventure is still fun in areas, but really feels like wasted potential. This series isnt about answers, but when it goes so far out of its way not to give them to you it can become distracting. Heres hoping that next month can bring back a renewed focus and sense of danger. Read Full Review
