Also, something regarding Hank Pym that I found in The Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe A to Z #13:

The reference to Albert Poole and Grutan is to a story in Strange Tales #75... except it's not. Instead, it's actually referring to the reprint from Tomb of Darkness #22, where not only was the name of Poole's giant robot changed (from Hulk to Grutan), but his assistant (who was named Blake in the original story) was renamed Pym and had his hair colour changed to blonde. With this reference being in an official handbook, that makes the Retcon (and thus the Reprint) canon to Earth-616.
