Miss Truesdale is a story with very dramatic shifts in mood and tone. Lonergan adds, “Sequences with lots of action and movement are probably where I’m most comfortable, so these pages introducing the character of Anum Yassa were where things started to click into place for me. Once I figured out how to splice the two together it pretty much all wrote itself.” But somehow I DID know how to write a sort of timid Victorian secretary. So, a sort of female Spartacus just sprang to mind and that was pretty much it-only I had no idea how to write a female Hyperborean gladiator. "I was looking for something very different and realized there was a lot of Hyperborean history that hadn’t been dealt with. “Well, one day I finally realized we didn’t have a real central female character in the Hellboy world-other than Liz, and I felt we had done plenty with her," Mignola tells IGN.
