More third person talk from a writer that obviously has known the character via the cartoon.

Yeah, it is disappointing.

It’s definitely not a plot point that would drive interest in the show, because as marvel found out the hard way, there only a handful of people on the internet that actually like roguneto. The only driving force behind it was middle aged male comic writer fantasy.

Panel

Cal Dodd and Lenore Zann have recorded their dialogue for their characters. The writing is at least mostly done. So you are incorrect.

Perhaps. *shrug* I don't mind being wrong but I'm not going to give accolades to every person involved in the project that has nothing to say; to only stir up speculation and not say a damn thing of value. 'Please tell me how much to not bother with this show, thank you.' That is what it's saying. That is not how PR works. PR is to promote and gain interest in the project, to form an audience in advance not dissuade. I get the whole, 'we can't tell you' thing but ... again, PR is there for a reason. IMO.
There was nothing in that interview to gain anyone's attention. IMO.

The project is too far away for answers to anything. It's in conception mode and show runner mode with looking for artists and animation.  Too soon to know anything, imo.
