From the editorial:
I hope you enjoy this issue of Route 666. I've had a lot fun putting it together and want to thank all of my tribbers for trusting me with their "babies."
I wish the issue was bigger this time around but I can only publish what's submitted and some of the writers this time already went above and beyond by submitting two stories. If you write Supernatural, please send submissions!
