Dilton, the smart guy

He carries with him all the stereotypical nerdy teen attributes: studious, glasses, and high flown language. Yet while he is not particularly interested in dating, he is widely admired by Archie and the gang.

He is an amateur inventor and he has helped the gang many times with his various inventions. This especially goes for Moose Mason who will do anything to protect his "little buddy" which means anyone bullying Dilton would face Moose's wrath.

During the early 1990s, Dilton briefly became the star of his own magazine named "Dilton's Strange Science". The magazine featured Dilton and Danni Malloy, a red-haired girl and amateur inventor, who shared his intellect and interests and served as his best friend and love interest. They shared a number of humorous science fiction stories, involving their inventions.

He has been seen in numerous stories where he tries to invent a female robot for himself with hilarious consequences.

More recently, Dilton has been dating Cheryl Blossom. They were paired together online, without knowing each other's true identity, fell in love, met in real life, and decided to continue their romantic relationship, though this is rarely shown.
