Ooh, is there a higher quality of this? Or a poster that can be ordered from somewhere?

Looks kinda like and old Atari 2600 game box.

Why use the Prometheus worm-thingy and not the Facehugger from Alien?

Very, very nice. That’s making me want to read some well-written fan fiction. Any recommendations?

Ah, this is a great suggestion, thank you so much! Very creative of you. I appreciate it.
