History

Sig.Lad first popped into existence during the Cosmic Plot Device Caper to help the LNH stop his time-displaced future twin Acton Lord. His past has undergone massive and frequent retconning since then. His current origin is that he was the son of Mister Thingy, leader of the Net.astic Nine, who was given the Super Molder Serum to save his life (see Dvandom Force #43-45).

At some later point, he was joined with the Sig.Force and entered the LNH. After a number of incoherent adventures, he went on a leave of absence to find himself and ended up finding Constellation instead. They formed the Secret Dvanders along with Particle Man fought side by side for many months, during which Sig.Lad discovered he and Acton Lord were incarnations of King Arthur and Modred. He spent a lot of time working with Constellation, being a sounding board for the cosmic hero's emotional struggles and a force to push him towards resolving them.

When Constellation left the Looniverse, the Secret Dvanders became Dvandom Force, and Sig.Lad became leader. Unfortunately, it was not long after this that the Super Molder Serum became unstable again. Seeking a cure and becoming increasingly desperate as he failed over and over, a time traveler's scrambled memories lead him to merge with Kopikat – becoming the tyrannical DeFacto V!

Eagle and the Net.astic Nine traveled back in time to prevent the tyrant's birth from taking place. But when DeFacto V was about to close the loop by force, Squidman prevented it— by killing Sig.Lad.

Sig.Lad has done a good job of staying dead, but still hangs out in the RACCCafe.

Personality

Currently is very mellow (he's dead, you see). When alive was rather driven, especially when it came to his arch-enemy and alternate self, Acton Lord. In matters not relating to Acton Lord, he was very calm and centered.

Powers and Abilities

Connection to the semi-mystical Sig.Force, resulting in the ability to change shape and fill the new form with power based on how good of a punnish "sig." name is possible. Examples include In.sig.nificance Lad, Sig.Lock Holmes, Cyber.sig. Also possessed minor bagel magic and the ability to generate real-object GIFs with his Gauntlet of GIF.

Appearance
