Faster Than the Batmobile zine

A few months ago, a user on a Batfamily-centric Discord server I'm in put out a call for DC stories under 500 words to be put together in a digital zine, to be called Faster Than the Batmobile. The result was a fantastic collection of ficlets and sketches, and as the zine is now out, I've spent the past week posting each of the seven stories I wrote for it on my own accounts. This is a link to the zine – be sure to send love to everyone who made it happen!
