The X-Files is a show that is extraordinarily beloved among the comics community, and for good reason. One of the show’s underrated qualities, that the IDW comics series can explore a little deeper, is the amazing supporting cast. Sure, Mulder and Scully are the heart of the show, but being able to turn a spotlight a little more on some of the ancillary characters allows the world of the show to grow and deepen quite a bit. ‘Skinner,’ the current story arc, is doing just that with FBI Assistant Director Skinner, and we are thrilled to share an exclusive first look at part two of that arc, which comes out on May 10th.
