Writer Jack Oleck and artist Alfredo Alcala focused on a primitive, powerful theme with which to depict the prehistoric warrior Kong in his debut issue: a growing son's bond with his mother. The bond gave Attu the strength to protect her newly born son from Trog the One-Eyed, who feared that the infant would someday rise to take his place as a tribal leader. The child's blond hair was unusual among the dark headed people, referencing a legend about a blond, unbeatable warrior called Kong, and Attu named him for this hero. Exiled from Trog's clan, Kong grew up fending for himself and his mother, until the evil Trog murdered Attu and ignited another primitive theme that would dominate the remainder of this 4 issue series (with later credits going to the likes of Bill Draut and Bernie Wrightson) : retribution.

The X-Files Classics continues with the adaptations of the first season by Topps Comics. Included in this collection are "Pilot Episode", "Deep Throat", "Squeeze," "Conduit," and "Ice".

Despite initial strong sales, the comic failed to run strips consistently and creators were not paid on time leading to its cancellation and publisher Apocalypse being declared Bankrupt. Some of the characters found life at new publishers, such as Dark Horse and Atomeka and some even in 2000AD itself. Apocalypse did reprint most stories in the Apocalypse (1991) series.

It focused on six different Mutants, and each story was essentially self contained. The miniseries was supposed to show the day-to-day sufferings of mutants, not just those that managed to find their way to the X-men and Charles Xavier. It was written chiefly by Karl Bollers, with different artists doing different issues.
