Reviews

Positioning all the superpowered heroics squarely between the era’s futuristic optimism and postwar paranoia, this is a refreshing diversion from the grimness of The Dark Knight or the tedious Superman Returns. Injects a welcome dose of retro exuberance into the capes-and-tights routine. — Kirkus Reviews

“Anderson keeps us guessing throughout with cleverplot twists and some intriguing alternate cold war history.” — Booklist

“The X-Files is a true masterpiece. There’s no more challenging series on television, and as a bonus, it’s also brainy fun.” — Los Angeles Times
