Publisher's Summary

Editor's Notes
Story summaries appear at the end of this zine, so that the more adventurous readers will not encounter spoilers, and the more cautious can select the stories they'd rather start with. Also, readers will notice that some minor characters' names or spellings of them differ from story to story. If the name or spelling does not appear in canon, then this is the writer's choice and is not a typographical error or inconsistency.
