In a time of ancient gods, warlords and kings, a land in turmoil cried out for a hero. She was Xena, a mighty princess forged in the heat of battle. The power…the passion…the danger. Her courage will change the world.
Xena: Warrior Princess, Sam Raimi’s Emmy Award winning fantasy television series that ran six seasons, is a classic among genre fans. Lucy Lawless’s heroine Xena and her companion Gabrielle, played by Renee O’Connor, provided us with strong characters from the earlier Hercules: The Legendary Journeys series and took us through adventures even more fun than what we saw with Hercules. A new television series is in the works, but meanwhile a new comic book monthly will fill the gap as we wait for that new series.
Next week, for the first time in eight years, Xena will headline a comic book monthly, published by Dynamite Comics. The series will be written by Genevieve Valentine with artwork by Ariel Medel.
