Origin
David Griffith, or "D.W." as he liked to call himself, was a film student whom moved to New York City and lived at the GEM movie theater. His uncle owned the theater, and David paid his rent by sweeping up the place, running the concession stand, making coffee and more choirs.
Besides that, he had a good friendship with another resident living in the GEM building, namely Luke Cage, better known as Power Man.
The two often met inside the building and sometimes David helped Luke out with some troubles (as well as the other way around). A comical returning gag with the two friends was that the coffee-machine inside the GEM theater always seemed to have a life on it's own. No matter how they tried to repair the machine, it kept giving the wrong drinks, spilled coffee on people's clothes, or the coffee came out the machine without a cup.
When Luke started living at another place, the two only rarely saw each-other again. D.W.'s current whereabouts are therefore unknown.
