Mr. Satanism's Exclusive Interview with Jayna, October 20, 2000 Mr. Satanism caught up with Jayna at her home in upstate New York, where she lives comfortably on her SUPERFRIENDS royalties, surrounded by her many cats... MS: The first obvious question: What have you been doing with yourself since the end of the show? J: Well, there was the comic book, obviously, which ran for a few years, then some modeling- all classy stuff. About the time the modeling jobs starting dwindling the SUPERFRIENDS royalties started pouring in, so I never had to do porno or anything like that- thank God! MS: I was always surprised there was never a PLAYBOY shoot- you know, something reasonably classy. J: Sorry, but I live in comic-book time, which makes me only 17 now. No way that was gonna happen. MS: So the modeling is a thing of the past... J: Not entirely, I still do stuff for the Delia catalog, for teen girls... I'm a natural. MS: And there were a couple appearances not too long ago... you and Zan were back in the "mainstream" DC Universe... J: Whoa, that's not me! Zan needed the cash, but the girl... I don't know who they got to play me. She's not bad though, from what I hear... Never read the stuff. MS: So you still talk to Zan? J: Not really... He just partied way too hard when the royalty money started coming in... Every time I see him it's like "Can I borrow some cash?" so finally I just said, "Look, Brother dear, I've had enough!" MS: Too much booze and too many women eh? J: "Women" aren't exactly Zan's biggest concern, if you get my drift... MS: Ah... J: I think that's supposed to be this big secret or something, but screw him. MS: So without Zan, there's no real "superheroing" in your life? You two need to be together for your powers to work, right? J: Yeah, but I don't miss it. I mean, on a day-to-day basis, do I really need to turn into a purple yak? I mean, come on...
MS: So back in the day, on the set, how did the SUPERFRIENDS really get along? J: So-so. Mostly well, I mean, everyone gets mad sometimes, but their weren't any scandals or anything like that. Zan had a crush on Wonder Woman, which annoyed me... MS: Did it bother you that everyone had this thing for her? J: God, yes! It was always "Wonder Woman is sooo hot!" I mean, here I am, an insecure 15-year-old girl, and I have to listen to that all day, every day, from everyone including my brother. I was so jealous of her. I used to spit in her coffee. MS: But there was never any real conflict between you two? J: Not really, I used to take it out on that girl Wendy. They [Wendy, Marvin, and Wonderdog] hung around the Hall of Justice occasionally and I'd just rub it in how I had superpowers and she didn't, or how I had a bigger bust. It was really immature, but I was just insecure- I didn't know what I was saying. She probably hates me now. MS: What ever happened to Wendy and Marvin? J: Well, Marvin kind of ruined the whole thing... One night the gang was out fighting... I dunno, robots, aliens, whatever. Zan and I are watching the Trouble Alert when suddenly Marvin comes wandering in the room, drunk as all creation. After that everyone just sort of voted to get them out of there- I remember Superman felt really bad about it, he was always nice to us kids. Batman was just all pissed off, didn't say a word. MS: Do you know where they are now? J: Wendy went to school for something, she was really an intelligent person. Marvin and that stupid dog, who knows? MS: Speaking of the animal sidekick, whatever happened to Gleek? J: A while after the show ended he ran away while Zan was watching him. I thought I saw him on David Letterman once...
MS: Did you ever date anyone involved with the show? J: I was too young for that- these guys were heroes, remember- they couldn't date an underage girl. Robin asked me out once, but all he did was talk about Wonder Woman. Later when I found out his real name was "Dick" I was like, no kidding... MS: Anyone in your life now? J: No, not really. I'm open-minded but not really looking, you know? I'm happy with my life and my cats. MS: Would you ever date a "superhero" type? J: No way! Without Zan I don't have any "powers", so I'd rather just meet someone normal... Somebody with a sense of humor and some morals. Not too many guys out there with both... MS: Have you seen the page this interview is for yet? J: Not yet- I plan on looking at it when we're done here though. MS: So you don't have any real opinions on it yet... J: Well, I'm flattered, of course. I mean, I was so insecure back then, and people were always saying things like "The Wondertwins suck, they're ruining that show". It really hurt a lot; I was so upset sometimes I'd burst into tears on the set. But now I look back and see myself and I was a pretty girl, and smart- I had a lot going for me. People think showbiz is all glamour, but it's hard- people can be really nasty to someone in the spotlight. MS: One last question: Dinner tonight? J: [Laughs] No. MS: I'm serious. J: So am I. MS: [After walking several yards away] Bitch.
