The Comic Book Guide to Buffy talks to the lovely Juliet Landau who has co-scripted the return of her regularly recurring character from Buffy and Angel, Drusilla, in a two-part special for IDW’s Angel series:

Question: It’s been eight years, not counting the two flashbacks at the end of Angel Season Five, since we’ve seen Drusilla in action. Still, fan reaction went through the roof when it was announced that she would be returning in comic form – what do you think makes her such a compelling character that fans can’t get enough of after all these years?

Juliet:She was a very rich, dynamic character. That was one of the reasons I enjoyed playing her so much.  She was delicate and childlike, diabolical and sensual. She was a villain but there was this incredible love story, a torrid love affair that spanned 150 years.” (link via Whedonesque)
