Oew, no. Not another X-Flies meets X-Men. That's sooo last century!

(Same thing, serious tone: )
I got tired of Marvel ripping off the X-Files constantly in the 90's. More, I got sick of them, with their usual attitude, going 'X-Files is popular, X-Files has gov't conspiracy, ergo gov't conspiracy is popular, ipso-facto let's put gov't conspiracy into every title we produce. Vis a vis! Concordantly!'
(Okay, that got a little less serious.)

It's a huge part of what I hated about v2.

Well, Departments A through G were complete failures, but Department H feels pretty good on the whole...

Okay, now say it to Marvel. And get them to listen. I'd be grateful for one. The grateful not dead.
