How Gerard Way Is Creating Weird Doom Patrol and Batman Comics with Young Animal - Comic Con 2016

[@PhoebeCase]

Why do people only refer to him as the lead singer of MCR? He's a trained and accomplished comic book artist, he isn't just a rock star.

[@xxmelaniexx101]

right?

[@ace-rx3tf]

I know i felt really bad once they said that.

[@mollygoldstein7536]

I know! MCR was formed because he was in NYC on Sept 11th working as an illustrator. MCR is what made him famous, but I think his true passion is art.

[@ashkeachum]

No one's disregarding him as a talented comic book writer. It's just that he's known more to the public eye as a musician

[@queenynyx2464]

Some people really enjoy his music.

[@Kemerh18]

"Who's that?" "Oh, that's my boy Jared Leto." Gerard you realize Jared is probably fangirling because you said his name.

[@chokeonjesus4510]

StarEmblemSSB XD

[@lucigallagher5542]

Batman The Black Parade

[@likedat2]

he should definitely resurrect that idea

[@yamashitakun3200]

+Evan MV You won the internet.

[@119mr.president2]

[@hedonistageek6514]

Dafuq? XD worst idea of the universe.. just kidding, it's internet you can say whatever you want to say

[@jaydenwhitlen1489]

He should do it with Grant Morrison lol

[@george.....]

[@sandervanbuuren7642]

[@queenynyx2464]

[@gumdokim]

I never thought I'd see the day Gerard way would be holding a lil Jared Leto/Joker!

[@treetheory8465]

When I was a young boy my father took me to san fransisco to a comic book convention.

[@Tempest_Stream]

Always gonna support Gerard

[@veganmikey1]

He's gotta be one of my favorite all around artists. Pretty much accomplished everything I wish I would have.

[@lancelotxiii9089]

I wouldn't be able to stop smilling if I ever got to interview him. MCR forever!!!!

[@Smilers61]

'That's my boy' 'it's just a little Jared Leto' awww

[@TheKeuliMeuli]

[@nickshaver2750]

[@jakegeddes5480]

Man... Gerard looks like Edward furlong in this video lol

[@GangStalker17]

Mixed with Norman Reedus

[@jakegeddes5480]

+Average Human eh... Kinda

[@TheKeuliMeuli]

when he refered to andy warhol and his banana art my heart sank. I don't think I could love this many any more

[@rcketfield7404]

HOw is no one talking about that UMBRELLA ACADEMY MIGHT BECOME A TV SHOW OR MINI SERIES.ITS ALREADY BEING SHOWN TO OTHER NETWORKS WHAT

[@store4books]

That would be awesome, but they've been in talks for years. Hopefully this will happen soon.

[@adamhenderson8690]

I miss MCR!

[@ZgNightcoreOfficial]

Everybody does

[@lithrawri]

+Zg Nightcore tru dat

[@riley-ws9ev]

we all do, but all good things must come to an end

[@sagefoxyt3610]

look up mcrx

[@riley-ws9ev]

+boycie1884 they aren't getting back together- it's just the ten year anniversary of the black parade

[@ghedhff636]

just so proud of him.

[@th0tt501]

I am so happy and so sad at the same time. I know, the band probably won't get together, cause he has a lots of work already and probably other member too. But I am happy that he stopped doing drugs, made happy family and now are doing what he loves.

[@thekinkshameexpress177]

"little jared leto" i love it

[@trashchildjpeg]

My roommate looking at my laptop screen: "Who's that?" Me pointing at Gerard: "Oh, that's my boy."

[@cattameme]

Looks like Southern Ontario is way higher temperature then SF

[@moongem4489]

Oh my God, the Greater Toronto Area is a freaking FURNACE.

[@alfurse123]

did anyone else catch it when gerard said "Ive been pretty busy with comics and making music...making music" MCR is finally back its been confirmed!!

[@UnownDepth]

yes they are

[@MrSlicker13]

they aren't touring or getting back togther it's just a re release for the black parade sorry

[@nutcrackerz348]

No they're not back unfortunately. If you watch their MCRX video, it says in the description that they have no reunion planned.

[@johnm1787]

He does his own albums solo career

[@riley-ws9ev]

no, my dear, that chapter is done. they're all working on solo projects i'm afraid- the whole mcrx thing was a stunt warner bros pulled because it was the ten year anniversary of the black parade xo

[@youweremythtaken]

The advert that played before this video was for a show called Killjoys. No joke.

[@Rynxiety]

How are they so calm?! HOW ARE THEY?!

[@johnny2dah]

I bet he was like please dont ask me about MCR cus I feel bad we got everyones hopes up

[@farasapt6579]

Damn, seeing Gerard Way doing what he loves by being a comic writer makes me sad that MCR will never return back

[@clementinepot2539]

But he is happy that is what matters. After so many problems, I'm happy for him.

[@UnownDepth]

They are back

[@MrSlicker13]

+Marshall Miles nope

[@riley-ws9ev]

no, that chapter is done, my dear

[@XBlaqKrowX]

+band trash look at their youtube channel

[@natelandherr5202]

Its not the Comic fans Gerard Way is dissapointing XD

[@danaetoro6988]

ouch lmao 😂

[@lithrawri]

Oh look! The guy from the A Fever You Can't Sweat Out cover!!!!

[@GrayWoIf]

I always thought I was only one who thought that

[@danaetoro6988]

but afycso have woman on the cover doesn't it? *edit: women*

[@stephaniesblue7870]

I couldn't help but aww at the little joker and when he was talking about it

[@WARMPLACEBAND]

"It's my boy," Did you take him to the city to see a marching band? And did you say to him, "son when you grow up, would you be the saviour of the broken the beaten and the damned?"

[@Macsk8ing]

Some people see a random dude standing there, we see a God.

[@gwenemofuk1011]

i love hearING HIM SPEAK

[@jnightmare0]

these two ign dudes are awesomse 👍

[@xxmelaniexx101]

I saw gerard way so i clicked

[@bossreptile5182]

same

[@lonelytrashcan5307]

same

[@igotflover2215]

same

[@BukanIbuMu]

he has a real high pitched voice

[@kjirstennord9068]

I love my chemical romance, but I wish people would stop referring to them as " the guys from my chemical romance " They all do other things now. they arent just ex members of my chemical romance.

[@store4books]

I don't mind that so much as the people that say the ex-singer or guitarist or whatever. They weren't replaced, the band is just... yeah, you know. Anyhow, people are generally referenced by whatever they are most known for.

[@emilyjai1992]

I've never wanted a plush toy so much in my life

[@tomiew1746]

He says eventually he came back to comics like it was 1 album then comics

[@blazeallen4203]

Really looking forward to these books and any others that come out of this imprint. I hope Young Animal jumps on the opportunity to be a gateway into The Heckler's revival.

[@gracevibares8338]

he still making MUSIC!!

[@gustavoventuramartinez4278]

Interesting to see Gerard take on Doom Patrol and Batman, I'll be looking forward to this

[@hootyholdtheblowfish6710]

Boi it's now April and vol 3 ain't out yet but the full book for the first vol of doom patrol comes out soon

[@store4books]

Gabriel tweeted that he's half done with the art, so hopefully soon??

[@bellelaw2002]

LOOK AT HIS ADORABLE JOKER PLUSHI AHH ITS SO CUTE

[@gentlemanwizard7537]

His voice is kinda weird... but it makes sense for the high pitched notes he hits. He might do well as a voice actor too.

[@gentlemanwizard7537]

Also, god damn you Gerard. You say "it's coming out, it's coming out" and I only think of another possible MCR/solo album.

[@LuisTorres-pw4ep]

MCR crushed my dreams with that video

[@rosslynpunk8402]

what´s the worst that I could say... things are better if gerard draws ?

[@sageboss115]

Im not into comics but just decided to watch anyway to contemplate Gerard's beauty... even though hes using sunglasses.

[@frankdonatelli343]

I'm so pumped up for Young animal.

[@2001remzi]

Highly accomplished artist, aesthetic space dad also a rock star

[@Ndoelicious]

That's a very expensive jumper jacket

[@avscott943]

Gerard is so successful I really wanna read the umbrella academy really bad my cousin loved it and she doesn’t even listen to mcr so i really wanna read it.

[@Gavin-Naumann]

His Joker plush doe

[@summerberries3356]

interviewer 2: whats the lead singer of my Chemical romance doing here me: drops phone, falls on ground, buys eyeliner, **g note** wE DONT SPEAK AbOUT THaT

[@Albumbrella]

When gerard way is holding jared 😂

[@trackboy17]

Lol and everyone thought they'd do a reunion tour. 😆😆😆😂

[@store4books]

Can't wait for Doom Patrol! Really hoping Umbrella Academy gets on TV and a channel that I can watch. So sad if it's something that's not universally available. FINALLY a 3rd UA, and a FOURTH!! So much art from Gee!!

[@bachaun]

"we kept disappointing the fans"...mmm...

[@juanr.155]

hahaha

[@stephaniesblue7870]

Same

[@tomiew1746]

9/23/16

[@hauntedfloors]

+Kate Biersack that's a black parade anniversary

[@2ock]

mcr days.. to now, wow. never knew he was into comics, dope!

[@2ock]

Wow, very intriguing - he must be a serial comicbook reader. Thats awesome, thankss

[@sparky1600]

+Baby Dory tf

[@jaydenwhitlen1489]

Freaking Grant Morrison is in a few MCR music videos

[@inkdrxps-5335]

I'm so excited for all the new comics that are about to come out. I just started to get into comics and I love them already. All the new comixs sound amazing and just great. Also, I'm hyped for the new Umbrella Academy, I just got Apocalypse Suite and Dallas and I've read them many times. Also, by scrolling through the coments I saw that many people talk about MCR but the band jst doesn't fit in the picture. It's about comics here, not the band really. Some people talk about them wanting MCR to reunite but it won't happen because for one, they have solo projects, and for two, the band actually happened on accident (he said that in an interview on the DC youtube channel).

[@KindledEmbers]

MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE

[@johndoriansmith]

I feel like at the end of MCR, Gerard Just let his comic side go, with the Danger Days graphic novel and stuff.

[@Mustachemaniacs]

anyone else recognize the thumbnail from a profile picture from a YIAY comment way back

[@jonasseorum5471]

What if MCR is added to the dc universe and then in the next Lego batman game they are in it and then we can have MCR Legos

[@riley-ws9ev]

no, my dear, that chapter is done

[@jonasseorum5471]

+band trash it will happen just believe like I still believe MCR Will do a final tour and I get to se them live just believe

[@riley-ws9ev]

+Jonas Seorum as amazing as that would be, it wouldn't be the same. i doubt frank/mikey would want to be a part of it, and gerard's voice has changed dramatically. all good things must come to an end, i'm afraid.

[@Sweet_Karma]

What's with IGN casting hosts that look relatively similar to each other... I just realised seeing these two together they could be cousins 😂

[@obvi]

Rofl

[@Sweet_Karma]

Swapnil Singh Aha it's so true even Brandon I think his name is and that girl look like twins lol

[@obvi]

+karma lol, yeahh

[@jnightmare0]

yeah 😂😂

[@Ndoelicious]

I think they messed up the character creation and decided just to make differnt personality of the same model

[@ashwingautam3701]

WHEN I WAS...

[@oogabooga7923]

[@chokeonjesus4510]

[@chokeonjesus4510]

Welcome to the Batman parade

[@lunarscorpio3987]

Geesus, let's just kidnap Gerard and make him make more music with MCR.

[@IKnowI]

Gerard ur voice!!!!

[@gwenemofuk1011]

"bady harrar"

[@jakesmith6369]

so is he done making music?

[@meggziez]

No, he's still working on music, most likely solo stuff. He already has a solo album out called Hesitant Alien, actually :)

[@mbuckhannon]

+Megan Stacey yea but it's no were nearly as good as mcr...

[@jakesmith6369]

yeah I heard Hesitant Alien, I was just wondering if hes gonna continue the solo carer

[@jessf7317]

+Jake Smith He mentioned he's busy with comics, writing, and music

[@danaetoro6988]

because MCR was post hard core and punk rock. Hesitant Alien is more Danger Days. the genre of gerard as a solo is Brit pop. two different things, also thats your opinion.

[@thatpoppunker325]

gerard way makes comics i need to get some hes going to end doing one called black parade

[@katrinekaersvang2438]

"The lead singer of My Chemical Romance"

[@claire6924]

He knows using it as much as he used to so it's not deep and strained
