History

Origin

A meteor from another dimension entered the parallel reality of Earth-C (a world inhabited by anthropomorphic animals) and crash-landed on the planet. The fragments of the meteor produced waves of radiation which endowed several individuals with super-powers, including Timmy Terrapin. Timmy became the super-hero known as Fastback and joined with Cap'n Carrot and his Zoo Crew.

Convergence

This section of the history takes place during Convergence, a massive crossover event revisiting characters from past eras and realities. The villains Brainiac and Telos plucked them from their own timeline and stored them together, causing them to cross over into each others' reality. Its precise chronological placement and canonicity may be unclear.

Incomplete There's something missing here. This section of the article is incomplete, and contains information, but requires more before it can be considered complete. You can help DC Database by editing this page, providing additional information to bring this article to a higher standard of quality.

Fastback was one of many taken to Convergence by Brainiac and Telos and lost his powers for a year. After the dome went down, he encountered Wally West and his kids and helped them defeat Flashpoint Wonder Woman and her army.
