“I did three or four episodes of that. I think the people who run the show are very big Joss Whedon fans and there’s a bunch of Buffy and Angel and Firefly people involved with it. I had never done any animation work before and I was terrified, but I think they wanted an Illyria type of character so it was cool.
“What did the huntress get up to? Well, kind of a lot with the question. It’s a bizarre sort of love story. It’s been interesting, especially cos the guy who plays ‘the Question’ has two kids who are in high school, so it’s an interesting match!” – Amy Acker
