Hello, adorable Buffistas. I know I've been gone for far too long and most of you are people I have never met, but listen, I need your help. My husband is going to interview Joss this week. Joss wants only questions he has NEVER been asked before. Anyone got any good ones?
P.S. I miss you guys.
RIO!!!
I have no Joss questions; I just wanted to say RIO!!!
WE MISS YOU!!!
STEPH!!!!!!
RIO!!!
Maybe ask him if Javier Grillo-Marxuach's review of Alien Resurrection made him crack up?
Why hello there!

This is the long and complicated question I wanted to ask at Comic-Con and didn't: "In both Astonishing X-Men and Runaways, you've gotten to create new canon for existing characters while also introducing new characters into the canon, characters who would then go on to be written by other writers who had no idea what you may have conceived for these characters' futures. How do you approach the process of 'playing in someone else's sandbox' and how do you let go of characters you've created so they can go on and do things you never imagined?"
Maybe your husband can make it more concise. I'm really more interested in the second half of the question. I've always wondered how comic writers feel when their story and characters go into someone else's hands. It would make me very twitchy.
Holy FUCKOS!!! RIO!!!
Got no Joss questions at this moment. Must ponder.

Not just comic writers, but people who've created characters that have lived on under new writers.
Oh, yeah, it's not exclusive to comics. But I think it happens a lot more. And it's not even characters you've created but also established characters/stories you've written. And then the next writer may step in and undo half your plot for all you know.
Oh, I really like that question. Thank you.
Rio! Lovely to see you!!
