Prometheus: Fire and Stone formed the Prometheus component of Dark Horse’s franchise-crossing Fire and Stone story event in 2014/2015, and was released in conjunction with Predator: Fire and Stone, Aliens: Fire and Stone and Alien vs. Predator: Fire and Stone. The four series all share an interconnected story.

Story/Spoilers
In issue #1B, When the Prometheus never returned from her fateful journey to LV-223, the questions surrounding the origins of man went unanswered. Now a new team of explorers seeks to uncover the dark mystery that holds not only the fate of the original mission, but possibly their own damnation.

In the year 2090, one year after Elizabeth Shaw and Charlie Holloway discovered the ancient star map, a probe lands on the surface of LV-223 and begins scanning the area. The foot of an Engineer suddenly crushes the machine. In the year 2219, 126 years after the disappearance of the USCSS Prometheus and 40 years after the Onager landed on LV-223, the engine core spacecraft, Geryon, was approaching the barren moon of LV-223 under the pretense of a routine salvage mission. Two days before arriving at the moon, passenger Clara Atkinson begins recording a documentary using a PUP-like device. She introduces fellow crewmembers captain Angela Foster, medic James Weddel and astrologist Francis Lane. Angela secretly records a video on the day of their arrival, detailing that although the salvage mission was partly true, her real intentions in travelling to LV-223 was to find the truth behind Peter Weyland’s disappearance and locate the Engineers. The two of three smaller vessels Helios and the Perses detach from the Geryon and land on the moon’s surface. Instead of encountering barren landscape like the crew of the Prometheus did 126 years ago, the crew arrive to be met with a lush jungle, bristling with strange alien life. They later come across a field of deceased mauled creatures and a lake of black goo, which Francis keeps a sample of. The prime discovery made by the crew however was an old vessel from the colony Hadley’s Hope located on the neighboring moon LV-426 — containing a horde of hostile Xenomorphs.
