1992
- April 27th, 1992: Bill Sherman signs off a post by referring to himself as Spelling Boy of the Legion of Super-Heroes.
- Due to the erratic internet access outside of universities in those early days, the early CPDC threads are abandoned until the next semester.
- September 1, 1992: The Two-and-a-Half Month Gap ends with Scavenger issuing the Call to Arms. LNH storytelling revs up again, with all kinds of new authors including Drizzt, Dvandom and the chaos-creating wReam jump in to revive the saga.
