The Man of Tomorrow
Apparently members (really just a few), question what’s the connection between Marvel 1985 and Fantastic Four #562-569. The following are the comic book connections, and Mark Miller author of both series confirming what was explained earlier.
==============================================
Note: Clyde is taken from his reality, to the Marvel Universe.
Marvel 1985 #6 pg. 22
Clyde himself posed more of a problem, the power of his fractured mind far greater than anything we could ever handle.
That’s why Captain America, volunteered to take him back to Marvel Universe where scientist were more accustomed to such talents.

So here's how they tie in. 1985 is the origin of Clyde Wyncham. And Clyde is the guy who grows up to be the greatest super-villain of all time far into the future. He is back in the Master of Doom storyline in Fantastic Four. What he's done is he's become the master of all space and time and co-exists from the end of the universe to the beginning through multiple dimensions and so on. He's just the biggest badass, you know? So you have his earliest, embryonic state in 1985 and it kind of explains who he is. So tell sell this in the most cynical way, 1985 is the origin of Dr. Doom's teacher as well as being a nice, little Stephen King superhero story, you know? And Wolverine: Old Man Logan ties into this because, without spoiling the end of 1985, the place where Clyde Wyncham is put at the end of 1985 is broken into in Old Man Logan. For people who've read the story, they know it's about the supervillains all getting together and wiping out the superheroes. So they open all the prisons and they discover this secret prison called "Clyde's Pit" which is where the worst supervillains are kept – the guys we've never heard about. And Clyde is the most dangerous supervillain of all, and he's freed in Old Man Logan. This is referred to in Fantastic Four. So the whole thing is this big, intricate web. Each thing is self-contained but hopefully they make a cool, big story. It's my own little event. After Civil War I kind of wanted to do a one-man event.
