My problem with Prometheus and Covenant is that it explains the mystery of the Alien and that’s not what I want.

Part of my fascination with the creature is that we know nothing about it. I didn’t appreciate the explanation of the space jockey either. Is it a helmet, is it a skull, it’s so weird.

There are comics and novels that go deeper into the Space Jockeys that aren’t bad. Getting more isn’t necessarily the problem, it’s mainly that Prometheus Ave Covenant were genuinely terrible additions to the franchise.
