With all the comic and TV series spin-offs around or proposed at the moment, is there anything you think has potential that hasn’t been suggested yet?
Well, with television, you have to consider how realistic your desires are. People don’t understand why Faith isn’t on every week. Eliza Dushku has a thriving film career - she’s not going to be on every week, if at all.
From my perspective with the books, Tom Sniegoski and I have pitched a Faith novel and comic book. It’s a cool idea which explores both Faith’s past and her current mental status.
I’ve got an Oz novel coming up. I’ve done a comic book mini series and the novel is going to be based on that, but much larger in scale and with characters and situations that aren’t in the comic.
I would love to tell more Giles stories We did a Giles one-shot comic, and we have a pitch in for another one It’s young Giles, it’s sort of Indiana Giles if you will - after he’s come back to the Council but before he’s gone on to the British Museum.
I’ve been fortunate in that I’ve been able to focus on various characters within the mythology. I’d love to do more Giles, love to do more Willow and Tara, but of all the ones that I’ve not been able to, Faith is the one I really would like to do. I just love the character.
