A two-issue story in the [[Alan Moore]] run of ''[[Swamp Thing]]'' stated that Adam was not transported by accident, but rather that the Rannians needed him to help repopulate their species as nuclear war had rendered them sterile. The idea was further developed in a three-issue miniseries by Richard Bruning in which Adam learned the truth, Sardath went mad, and Alanna was killed off. This [[Retcon]] was quietly undone in the late 1990s by [[Mark Waid]], who revealed Alanna was [[Death Is Cheap|still alive]] and casually had Adam mention curing Sardath's madness. The "sterile Rann" [[Retcon]] has gone unmentioned since, and associated miniseries seems to have tacitly slipped into [[Canon Dis Continuity]].
