Yes, I was speaking of the assumed master-student relationship. Honestly, though, I love most of the Marvel Comics, especially the Baron Tagge/"The Wheel" issues, and as my user-name implies, I don't care if they're considered below the "C-Canon" that most EU work falls under. In my mind, the Prequels are beneath "Non-Canon" since they completely ruin my interpretation and enjoyment of the Original Star Wars films and work. Sorry. I just refuse to accept that the greatest villain of all time (imo) was once a wide-eyed "yippee!" shouting little slave boy who ALSO lived on Tatooine who then became a snotty adolescent and that he "solely" fell to the Dark Side because of a nightmare about his wife. Also Obi-Wan falling in his early 50s in Star Wars is just ridiculous. As weird or different as Marvel's Star Wars comics got, they never got as "non-canon" as the Prequels did.

But I digress. As for whether or not this was supposed to be Anakin, I guess none of us can ever know for sure, especially since most people will simply try to work this into the current "canon" (ugh) of the Star Wars universe and will deny this individual was ever intended to be a Jedi. Heck, most people I talk to anymore honestly think the Vader=Luke's Dad relationship was always planned out. Lucas's Stalin-esque Revisionism needs to be uncovered by any decent SW fan.
