What was the inspiration behind the “growing planet” theory of Alden Maas?
In FANTASTIC FOUR #263-264, the character Alden Maas has similar theories on the Earth’s expansion to Neal Adams. Was using an anagram of Neal’s name a way of acknowledge the source of the “growing planet” theory? JB: Sort of. I figured everyone would “guess” that the character was supposed to be Neal (even tho originally he wasn’t) so I thought I might as well add “attributation” in the form of the anagram.
