Gillian Anderson.... As Agent Dana Scully of the X-Files... ... is one of the main reasons that the TV Show lasted so long, and was sucessfully transferred to comic book format in my opinion. Gillian was born in 1968. She moved to New York when she was twenty-two, and started her career in theater. She moved to Los Angeles in 1991, spending a year auditioning. Although she had once vowed she would never do TV, she ended up on a few shows including the Class of '96. As a result of her guest appearance in Class of '96, Anderson was sent the script for The X Files at the age of 24, by Chris Carter. The TV series eventually ran for nine seasons, and included one theatrical film. Her role as Dana Scully kept the show 'grounded' in my opinion, so as to keep it interesting for a more mainstream viewing audience. Sometimes these sci-fi shows garner too much of a cult following that turns off the mainstream viewership and ends up withe show having a shortened run. I remember the first X-Files Convention held in San Diego, the comic book was a very hot commodity and hundreds were signed as conventioneers stood in line for those signatures! For those interested in the X-Files Comic Books, we have several comics listed in our eBay Featured Store and eBay Pro Store.
