Xena

Xena is a reformed warlord from ancient Greece who, haunted by her violent past, dedicates herself to fighting for justice and good alongside her companion Gabrielle. Her comics adventures capture the same fierce, redemption-driven warrior spirit as the beloved TV series.

Forged in the action-packed Modern Age, Xena burst onto the comic page in 1997 courtesy of Roy Thomas and Joyce Chin, bringing the iconic Warrior Princess into four-color glory for Dynamite Entertainment. Her comics adventures place her in remarkable company — sharing pages with the likes of Gabrielle, the fierce Callisto, and even Hellboy himself — hinting at the bold, boundary-crossing spirit that makes her such a compelling figure. Appearing across Xena, Dark Horse Presents Annual, and Dark Horse Extra, she carved out a genuine presence in late-'90s and early-2000s comics culture. If you're a fan of the legendary TV warrior or simply love strong, mythologically charged characters from this era, tracking down her comic appearances is a rewarding hunt.
