The true origin of Whedon's Buffy comic lies in a much-rumored TV project that he now reveals is officially dead: ''I had been thinking about doing some TV movies based on Buffy characters, but we could never get anything resembling financing together that was realistic, so it fell by the wayside. But that whole failed endeavor made me start thinking about what would happen next, and what the stories and mythology would be. I realized there was a lot to say, and it could make for a really fun comic book.''
The final episode of Buffy: The TV Show saw Buffy's base of operations, Sunnydale, collapse into the earth after an apocalyptic throwdown with a super-bad known as The First and a hoary host of blood-sucking demons. She had been liberated from her vamp-killing responsibilities, having empowered thousands of girls across the world with Slayer superpowers. For the first time in her life, Buffy knew freedom.
