So I missed crossover day here at![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
crack_van, but I wanted to offer up this little gem. It’s a crossover with X-men, but you don’t need to be any more familiar with X-men than anybody else who’s seen at least the previews for any of the three movies. Really, you don’t.
This is a post-episode piece, set right after the infamous X-Files episode “X-Cops.” If you didn’t see this episode, it was filmed in the grand tradition and by the camera crews from “Cops.” Mulder and Scully get caught out in south central LA by the “Cops” camera crews during the investigation of a case, and Skinner tells them to cooperate with the show because as Scully states, “The FBI has nothing to hide.”
Well, it turns out that in addition to Mulder and Scully tracking this ‘monster-of-the-week’ so is Logan “Wolverine” from X-Men. His theory is that this monster is actually a mutant he calls ‘Affrighted.’ It’s entertaining to see Mulder and Scully through the eyes of Logan. This is an excellent example of how an author can take another character from another fandom and give X-Files fans a little more insight into their own beloved characters.
