About

The Patrochilles Zine is a non-profit, English language physical and digital fanzine to commemorate the Greek heroes: Achilles and Patroclus. A bonus digital add-on will also be available as well.
This zine will include various versions of Achilles and Patroclus throughout history and media, written and drawn by our talented contributors.
This zine will include content of mixed ratings and will be counted as NSFW, appropriate for readers 18 years and older of age.
All proceeds will be donated to charity. Please see our interest checks section for more details.

We have a no-hate and anti-discrimination policy: racism, sexism, ableism, queer- and fatphobia or other means of discrimination is strictly prohibited from this anthology.
As this fanzine is not exclusive to Supergiant Games’ Hades, there will be numerous variants of Achilles and Patroclus that may include different ethnicities and skin tones. We will have contributors specify which version/interpretation of Achilles and Patroclus they will be illustrating/writing about, and moderate each workpiece accordingly.

Please refer to the schedule for a full run-down of the anthology's proceedings.

We are proud to announce that all proceeds made will be donated to People In Need (PIN), specifically for Ukrainian Humanitarian Aid. You can read more about PIN HERE.
