But as far as working with editors and licensors, tell me about this other book you’ve written, which my brain keeps thinking of as the “Old Man Logan” version of Buffy.
I’ve called her “Old Ma’am Logan.” I’m sure if you look up an interview with any writer, they tell you how the story started in one place and it turned into something else. This was originally brought to me as, “We want to do this story where the vampires can walk in the day and what does that mean?” They wanted a dark Old Man Logan cranky Buffy feel. As an adult woman of 40 who was a teenager at the same time as Buffy, I was obsessed with the show. It was a big part of my late teen years. I hadn’t really watched it much since, and I was surprised when I started working on this that I was so fluent in Buffy. The dialogue, the characters, everything came super naturally to me. And supernaturally. I wrote that first issue in two days. I was thinking about the story that Buffy deserves. In it she is in her 50s and is the oldest living slayer that has ever been. Her life has been really difficult and things have not gone her way. Now these monsters that she was basically created to hunt can walk around during the day and have protection.
