The world loves a superhero, with the wholesome Thors and Captain Americas of the world are kicking it alongside Deadpool and Jessica Jones, but what about super heroes from a simpler time?

What about Xena, Warrior Princess?

Sure, she didn't technically have superpowers, but anyone who can do this fits squarely in the genre:

She's coming to Australia this April for Oz Comicon in Perth and Adelaide -- some say about a decade too late -- but not us.

It's the perfect time to reminisce for all those kids who grew up in awe of the all-round fierce, feminist role model.

And when we say fierce, we mean it.

And just quietly, her outfit could totally play in this year's Super Bowl halftime performance.
