As well as writing DC Super Hero Girls for the DC Zoom imprint, Shea Fontana is also writing a new book, Batman Overdrive.

Talking it up at the American Library Association announcement of the DC Ink and DC Zoom lines, Batman Overdrive will feature a fifteen-year-old Bruce Wayne, a Millennial, born in 2004… and who finds a car in his late parents’ basement, a month before his sixteenth birthday — a car that his father had when he was sixteen. And so, with the help of his friends, he decides to restore the car, and then customise it, into the Batmobile. It’s a new origin of the Batman with a more vehicular origin.

At the least, this has to be better than the entirety of Gotham, right?
