This zine is a love letter to Xena: Warrior Princess—the campy, cult-classic ‘90s series that gave us chakrams, battle cries, and a whole lot of unresolved sapphic tension. Packed with playful essays, episode shoutouts, and nostalgic deep dives, this 28-page zine celebrates the show’s fearless hero, her bardic soulmate, and the gloriously queer subtext (and often main-text) that made it iconic.
Whether you’re a long-time Xenite or a new recruit ready to ride into battle, this zine honours the power, humour, and heart that made Xena a touchstone for queer viewers around the world. Come for the leather and mythology, stay for the undeniable chemistry.
