Scott Lobdell and Elliot Fernandez have created a fun miniseries with Forever and a Day that manages to capture the spirit of both Ash and Xena in what at first appears to be a strange collaboration.
The six-comic stand alone story, collected here in full, tells the story of Ash trying to time travel to aid Xena in an apocalyptic battle against a horde of deadites but constantly turning up at wrong points in her life.
A humorous if somewhat basic story — each issue follows the same formula — is carried largely in part by Ash’s trademark wisecracking character.
Elliot Fernandez and Diego Galindo’s artwork does well to blend the comic stylings of both franchises, with colourful and interesting panels that elevate the fairly basic premise.
It’s a fun, fast read that's worth a look.

Xena has lost a major battle and Gabrielle is dying, so she calls Ash for help by ripping up a piece of paper (yes, I know what the paper is, but it sounds more ridiculous this way). He’s in the middle of wooing—sexually harassing—an intern at the S-mart when he whooshes back in time, only to have Xena not recognize him. Turns out he whooshed to the wrong time and has to go back, waiting for the second issue to get it right. . . nope, not then either. It’s suddenly Ancient Greece’s version of Groundhog Day. Totally with Xena when the fourth issue comes along and she yells, “Again?” It takes till issue 6—the last one—to find out what’s going on.
As soon as I saw this pairing my initial thought was, “I hope there’s a line where she says, ‘You look familiar.’” But apparently they’ve met before.
Best lines of Ash being Ash:
“Keep it up and you’re gonna see just how hard I blow. . . I mean. . .”
“Must. . . bite. . . tongue. . . must. . . bite.”
“Steve. . . really?”
Ash has always been smarmy and a jerk, but he managed to still be likeable. This version of him. . . not so much. And being a fan of redheads, I would have stayed with Amber.
I recognize this is supposed to be completely silly, but somehow it’s even past that. Yep, too silly; never thought I would say that. I feel like I should have enjoyed this a lot more. I love the title, though, as well as Ash getting a little Bubba Ho-Tep in there at the end. . .
10 pages of covers and ads.

With excitement, I downloaded this graphic novel because Xena and Ash are such icons. The first two issues in this book were disappointing and added hardly anything to the story except repetition. Beginning in issue three, the action I associate with Xena and Ash actually began to build and I started enjoying this graphic novel. If the first two issues could be condensed into a page or two this would have been an awesome graphic novel full of action and corny jokes that are to be expected. An okay read for big fans of Xena and Ash.

Ah, this brought back a lot of memories of both AoD and Xena. I've not read comics on either before so I enjoyed getting reacquainted with both. I enjoyed the artwork by Elliot Fernandez and Diego Galindo as well.

The comics-Xena felt too much like a superhero, too glamorous. Not sure I can explain this the right way. TV-Xena is also hot and a kick-arse lady, but she feels a bit rougher. And that's the warrior princess I grew up with and love.

Otherwise, the art was nice and the story ok. I like time-travel, but I'm not big on repetitiveness. It's just not my thing.
