 '''Dial "D" for Dvandom''' was [[Dave Van Domelen]]'s [[Writer Character]], who used the amazing power of the Dvandom Dial to create a great number of LNH heroes and villains.  But during ''[[Electrocutioner's Song]]'', he was [[Retcon|retconned]] out of existence.
-To fix this, during the ''[[Bellerophon Gambit]]'', [[Acton Lord]] pulled him out of "[[Real World Minus One|real life]]" and back into the [[Usenetverse|net]]. They restored the origins of all the Dialed characters. Then Acton Lord stole the Dvandom Dial and attempted to use its power (and that of the [[Pega.SYS]]) to reach the [[Source Code]].  When he failed, the Dial overheated, its molten remains dripping onto Dave's staff, and he arose as the '''Dvandom Stranger'''.
