One version of Doctor Omega travelled with [[Amelia Earhart]] at one point. He had means of travelling across dimensions and once dropped in on the [[M.F.S. office]] to abscond with the [[thermal reactor]] from [[Jenny Over-There (925th Universe)|Jenny Over-There]]'s [[toaster]], which he needed for “a project”.
