X-Files Season 10 Comic To Feature The Lone Gunmen

Even death can't keep down the Lone Gunmen, the conspiracy theorists, hackers, small publishers and occasional comic relief in Chris Carter's cult hit TV series The X-Files. The characters, who were killed in the season nine episode "Jump the Shark," would have seemed therefore to be unlikely candidates to come back in Season Ten, but there they are on the cover of today's solicited second issue. Of course, one of the most popular episodes ever to feature the trio  was actually a flashback story--season five's "The Unusual Suspects"--so it's not as though such a thing is unheard-of for these particular characters. You can see the solicitation text below and the covers at right and below.
