Django
Freeman teams up with the aging Don Diego de la Vega to battle the
self-styled “Archduke of Arizona.” This story takes place after
the events of Tarantino’s film Django
Unchained, which occurred in 1858–1859.
However, the film The Mask of Zorro (which
is referenced in Jess Nevins' "A Root That Beareth Gall and
Worms" and John Allen Small's "A Fate Cast in Silver")
has Don Diego definitively dying in 1842. Therefore, I consider this
particular story an AU.

Nuts, I didn't know the particulars of this story, but I thought it was cool to cross over such a high-profile recent character with a classic like Zorro. Too bad it doesn't fit the CU. :-(
