For years, FBI agents 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. Eventually, both agents left the FBI and began new lives in peaceful anonymity. However, recent events prompted them to return to the Bureau and the X-Files.
When a thwarted attack puts a community at risk, and the connection to a recent mall shooting is found, Mulder and Scully must determine the cause of the violent outbreaks, why the government is covering it up, and just what the connection to old secrets they’d believed dead and buried really is.

"Not all horrors come from space. Several live among us, and one is gunning for Dana. A good addition to the X-Files canon, adding another layer to the complex character of Dana Scully." - Patrick Hayes, SciFi Pulse (on issue #4) "Taking place in the time that the new miniseries takes place, "The X-Files" #1 is not quite a full reset but does offer something different than what we’ve seen before. "The X-Files" #1 is a solid debut that’s perfect for old and new The X-Files fans." - Jess Camacho, Geeked Out Nation (on issue #1)
