Age forward, age backward, the Universe can't make up its mind.
SHIELD and superheroes, yeah. I'd say it doesn't have any of the stuff I normally hunt, but there are a lot of things that sound familiar - the entire alien abduction narrative for instance. And to be honest most of the things that I've seen evidence of in the X-Files, wouldn't be considered as 'existing' by people in my reality either - so I can't be certain they don't exist here.
