The zine's social media account opened its Curious Cat on July 23, 2019[1]. Applications for a Xion-centric zine opened from July 27th to August 9th[2]. Results were sent on August 12, 2019[3].

Preorders opened from October 25 to November 17, 2019, with the following pricing tiers[4]:

  • Digital Zine Only ($14 USD)
  • Physical Zine Only ($25 USD)
  • Physical and Digital Bundle ($30 USD)
  • Merch Bundle ($45 USD) - Physical Zine, Charms, Stickers, Sticker Sheet, Prints

Each physical zine or bundle would include a double-sided prim bookmark[5]. The zine also had a stretch goal of an acryilc standee that would be unlocked for merch bundles if 50 merch bundles were sold[6].

Digital copies of the zine were sent out on December 31, 2019[7]. Shipping of physical orders began approximately after January 9, 2020, when the mod announced that the ordered zines had arrived from printing[8]. Leftover sales opened on March 4, 2020, and would close until all items were sold out[9].

Let's start with @xionzine!! I did a single page and a charm for this one. Most of my merch is out up atm, but I had to take a picture of @littlemay528's standee! This book turned out amazing and I would 100% work with this team again.[19]
