Oh, thank God! That makes much more, less disturbing, sense.

I think the only person who remembered about it after the episode where it happened was the actor. Then again, he had absent moments too, so it works very well in the strip! 😀

I totally forgot Krycek was missing an arm! The show kind of did too.

And this is the ep where he got to kiss both Marita and Mulder. Evidently Nick Lea’s lucky week.

I think. And then there’s that one alien that decided to become a baseball player except it didn’t mention anything about the civil war with the possessed aliens and the stitch faced ones.
