I never read a Fantastic Four comic for like twenty years but I was extremely familiar with the characters through descriptions (and when I did read one all my impressions/understandings were correct). Also I dunno if he came up with Rake or Esslemont or one of the other players (at least in his earlier accounts he implied there was an entire group involved, not just the two of them - maybe that story changed later though). As for "university", well, Icarium, Anomander Rake and Tehol Beddict are all very teenage-early-twenties power-fantasy-type characters, I could see someone coming up with the first two in university, and Tehol Beddict absolutely screams "I JUST DID ECONOMICS 101 AND NOW I AM A GOD!" lol <3</blockquote>
