Ask A Genius 1510: Wendy’s Mind Upload, Corporate Experiments, and Xenomorph Canon

Scott Douglas Jacobsen and Rick Rosner unpack new beats in Alien Earth: Boy Kavalier pressures Wendy—a hybrid “Lost Boy” whose mind was data-transferred—leveraging her brother Joe Hermit while she perceives Xenomorph signals. Prodigy’s vivisection of a facehugger and larval implant in Joe’s removed lung underlines corporate nihilism, as the series aims for canon two years pre-Alien. They note continuity bumps and correct lore: the Eye Midge is not from Xenomorph Prime. Rosner riffs on librarians’ ruthlessness to argue most memories are filler, warning of AI triage of human consciousness, then sketches a “Great Peace”: abundance-first energy expansion to forestall conflict.
