Is there any character that surprised you when you wrote them? A character you expected to be dull or a pain when they were handed to you but turned out good in the end?

It happens a lot.

Writers are human. For whatever reason, sometimes a character just doesn’t click until you get to actually write them and then you HAVE to find what it is that makes them cool to their fans.

My big example is J’onn J’onzz. I just always thought he was a bit of a mort until I got to write him, now I dearly love him. I finally got why people love the character.

Part of the fun of a shared universe is discovery, even after years of reading.
