  • I like the Umbrella Academy comic books. I also enjoy the music of My Chemical Romance of which Gerard Way is the singer. This is unrelated to the band however. His skill as a visual artist and story writer have nothing to do with the band. Besides, the story is far too intricate and in depth to be seen as a similarity to the stories told in his songs. I'm kind of sick of all the twelve year old girls saying "OMG Gerard is so hot!" he is in his thirties and is married!

  • i discovered the umbrella academy because i am a fan of my chemical romance...

    i really love the comic for what it is, not because it was gerard way who wrote it. thankyou to gerard way for writing such a great comic series and giving me inspiration for a TON of stuff to draw... :)

  • Imagine if Gerard had Gabriel's beard, and Gabriel had Gerard's voice... They could be their own crime fighting team of superheroes along with Mikey with Ray's fro, and Johnny Depp with Helena Bonham Carter's boobs

  • I wanna draw like him when I'm older!!!in fact i wanna be like him sooner then that!! I cnt wait!!!(practices my ass off)

  • I still need to buy the book!!!

  • I love MCR and i love these comic's, i'm a bit gutted Mr Way did not draw it himself as i love his artwork he is super talented, but being a great singer, lyricist, father and husband must take up a lot of time and Mr Gabriel Ba's work is amazing! I'd never heard of him before and his work is great.

    I'm glad Ways comic book nerd shone through on this, after all he was an artist before My Chemical Romance and he's still a great artist. x

  • this comic is awesome, its only a bonus that it was written by Gerard Way. epicness

  • God. I really want some gum.

  • Guys, my chemical romance fans aren't that bad. You are picking out the crazy ones who probably only know "Welcome to the black parade." I love My Chemical Romance. I consider myself a Killjoy in the MCRmy. I LOVE umbrella academy. I love other comics, too. Not all MCR fan are crazy and want to marry Gerard Way.  I don't want to marry him. I just want to meet him and have a conversation with him. That would be awesome.

  • @XxKierstenLeannexX AMEN SISTER.

  • @XxKierstenLeannexX I totally know what you mean, but you forgot that they have some crazy fans (like me) that aren't into guys.

    I seriously want to ask Gerard "Why Bandit?"... Or talk about how he gets his ideas, then nod along and say "I'm the same, I write stories."

    Having said that... A lot of my stories are Frerards, so I can't mention that...

    And now I have an idea for an UA fanfic!

  • I read UA before I even knew about MCR.

  • Don't get me wrong, I love My Chemical Romance. But I don't get why the uploader put them down as a tag for this video. I think Gerard's comic career and MCR should be kept separate. We don't need any rabid fangirls finding this and liking it just because they think Gerard is hot. People should love The Umbrella Academy because of the originality of the story and the beautiful art, not just because it was written by the singer of a cool band. MCR or not, Gerard is a freakin genius for doing this

  • I will admit I only found out about UA because of My Chemical Romance... But I don't like it just because he is 'hot' or because he is the lead singer of my favourite band, I like it because it is a kick ass comic.

    That is all.

  • hes always choing gum (lov tat)

  • i got into ua cuz i likd mcr, and cuz of them i got into comics. yea hes hot but thts not the only reason i like him. he great at everything he does, so what if ppl get into ua/comics cuz of mcr.

  • i like gerard way, but not JUST kuz he's hott. he has a great personality. no joke. i really want to read UA, but i can't because of my gay family who would laugh at me if i get a comic. well, my uncle LOVES comics. he MIGHT know about it...

  • im writeing a comic i want to send to you guys. I dont realy like how it came out in script form so maybe you can make it longer. I want there to be four issues and each issue will have 16 pages.

  • @legendarywerewolf206 where can i get it????

  • @CantChangeMYworld its not ready yet.still in script form. its a Friday The 13th fan comic i want 2 bublish. mybe u guys can rewrite the script.

  • I always like MCR's music, but I think that Gerard knocked it out of the park with the Umbrella Academy. Who knew he could write comics?

  • My cousin Josh has one of Gerard's comics but i think its the Umbrella Academy.Not sure.i gotta ask him next time i see him.

  • Heard about UA because of My Chem (I admit they are my favorite band).

    REGARDLESS, I've been a comic fan LONG before I even heard of MCR because of my awesome father, and I submit that UA is a wonderful comic series, although (no offense to Mr. Ba) I wasn't thrilled by the artwork.

  • i like gerard but i rather stick to comics better, im more bpthered about dark horse comics because id like to be a comic artist/writer too when im older i if my comics got published by dark horse comics, id be so hyper-happy, pushing me off a cliff wouldnt seem that bad.i luv dark horse comics because a large amount of comics theyve published are some of my favourites, and as for you MCR fangirls, im a fan too but seriously SAVE IT FOR THE MCR VIDS!!!!!!

  • I DID get interested in UA because of Gerard, and because he IS the front-man in my favourite band. I'd been into comics for a while anyways.

    I LOVE UA. I just found it amazing- the unconventional storytelling, the characters, the plot, everything.

    But I DON'T like it JUST because he wrote it. I'd love it even if I had no idea who wrote it. I didn't even think about looks with the band when I first heard them anyway. I get where people are coming from with the annoying fangirls though :/

  • I swear, gerard must spend a fortune on gum ¬.¬

    I loved reading UA when i got it. he's right, it is addictive .

  • I found out about Umbrella Academy because I'm familiar with Gerard Way, but I love comics. Haven't had the cash to buy an issue yet, but that's gonna change soon. Can't wait to start collecting this series! I love the character designs and the artwork is stunning. The story sounds interesting too. I'm glad Gerard got to publish his own comic. I want to write for comics, too, so I'd like to support the business of beginner comic writers.

  • I think a lot of people picked up the comic because it was Gerard, but honestly became a fan of UA after that. I mean, girls who think of nothing besides OMG SO HAWT rarely have the patience or the constitution to sit through a book or a comic convention.

    I've avoided it until now because I didn't want to read it just because it was Gerard - but I've heard he says The Prisoner inspired a lot of it, and that's one of my favorite shows ever, so I'm really interested now. :D

  • @RikuYasha99 You're right. But I knew he wrote it but I only read it because I thought it sounded interesting to me. The Gerard Way thing was only a bonus for me.

  • Can't wait to see how it transfers to the silver screen in two years. The Apocalypse Suite was really good. It was like hellboy and emily the strange got put into a blender lmao. The Boy really gave it that Emily twist. Didn't get to read the story acrs after the Apocalypse Suite yet and dont want to say too much to ruin it.

  • Where can I buy the umbrella academy? (I'm a fan of comic books.)

  • When I went to a TUA singing people kept saying Gerard didn't want people to wear MCR shirts so a bunch of fans started freaking out ''Oh my god! Fuck I'm wearing an MCR shirt...GIVE ME YOU'RE COAT!''

  • Yeh, I read the Umbrella Academy at first because Gerard wrote it, so I wanted to see how it was, but I am definatley not a fangirl :P

    It's actually a good comic, and I'm not just saying that 'cause Gerard wrote it :P :D

    Like a couple other comments say, I like Gerard and MCR for their music, and who they are. :3

    It doesn't matter to me how popular, or cute some band or ect is, if they're jerks with bad music count me out D<

    (Or just jerks, or just bad music xD)

  • I like his music and comics but not cause he is cute.I like Gerard because of who he is and i thing he has a great personality...Its sad how fan gurls ruin everthing.If you are a fan girls keep your dumb comments about how cute he is to yours self cause no1 cares.Its ok to be a fan gurls but you need to know when enough is enough.

  • Never heard the music. Like the book, though.

  • the story's nice, fresh and intriguing XD but the panelling makes it a bit confusing...cant really see the plot... If they do a movie outta this, I wonder who can play five and space ^^""

  • does everyone have to make fun of Gerard? do most of these fangirls have to be sooo obsessed over him? i mean, this video isn't about Gerard being cute, it's about his comic book. i don't know- just comment about the comics or the interveiw or something. try not to change the topis of the video. thanks. <3 MCR 4 ever

  • i was so happy when i heard he was doing comic stuff agin cos that how everything for him started in a way. his artistic talents are so great and its awesome to see him expressing himself like this. i have so much admiration for him. your SUPER-CALA-FREAKEN-AWESOME!!!

    and i have to say that Ba's art is super amazing and im jealous of his skills (:

  • oh my god the laugh at the end :D

  • Gerard looks so cute with his sunglasses xD

    He's totally talented.

    He looks great, he sings great, he makes awesome comics, and I think he's got an awesome character. Lyndsey and Bandit-Lee must be very proud :D

  • SCOTT ALLIE: AWESOMENESS!!!!!!

  • Gee started as a comic designer straight out of college then made MCR. He's an amazing artist. I love MCR but its good to see him returning to his roots.

  • gerards wave in the beginning is cute.

    xD i love him...in a total non fangirly way of course...lol

  • you're just jealous because he pwns you & he can draw way fucking better than you

    pwned xD

  • BTW,I totally meant for that first comment to ask where the UA movie is coming out.

  • Gee needs to STOP chewing like a cow XDDD

  • the left man ... is it the singer from My Chemical Romance??????

  • yep! he's multi-talented! lol

  • @xxlariiemolovexx yes he is xD

  • I love GERARD WAY!!!!!!!!

  • umbrella academy's a great comic

  • he sounds different

    very strange

  • I want to go to a comic convention xD

  • they're making a film of this that should be out in 2012

  • Do you know where it's coming out?

  • HAHA!I can reply to my own comment!

  • HAHA YOUR GAY

  • @RebornLegacy thank you

  • Gerard look so pretty!!

    love him!!

    his work is awesome!

  • GABRIEL BÁ õ/

    he looks so brazilian :D

    ele é brasileiro mesmo, dã :B

  • Out of all honesty.

    I picked up UA unknowingly it was Gerard.

    Gerard has to get sick of tweenies just liking the comic because of MCR.

    It's sickening.

    To be honest I know I would like the comic with or without him.

    So stop the OMG Gerard is hot crap. THis is about the comic.

    Have some respect for him.

  • Oh God. <3 Thank you for saying this.

  • I'm glad to know some people feel the same. <3

  • I'm glad i'm not alone on that opinion.

  • @RikuYasha99 Just because someone finds him attractive doesn't mean that they don't appreciate his comic books. He is fantastically talented.

  • @littlegurlini I'm not implying that thinking he is attractive means you don't appreciate. But it's slightly irritating when a video is a for a comic and you're going on and on about how a guy looks. It's a little degrading for the person.

  • gerard re draw your caricature published okay if I look . argentina

  • GABRIEL BÁ \o/

  • gerard looks happy lol :) ♡ :)

  • omg i was there! they signed my copy. I loved u.a before i ever really became a fan of mcr. when it was just a song that came on the radio. but now i love both.

  • o-m-geee pushed up his glasses

    lmao

    so thats what gabriel ba looks like :O

  • ☂ hehe

    I ♡ GEE!!!

    Gee's voice is amazing!!! ♩♪♬♫

  • stranglingdominic you're killin me come ooon dont hate

  • i agree so much with neostg i love gerard way and mcr as much as the next crazy bitch but people are taking this fandom waay too fuckin far girls already fucked up hellboy whn they made it all mushy and shit with liz bt now they fuck up the u.a. just cause gerards writing it ill bet half of them havent even read it

  • am i the only person who thinks these annoying fucking fan girl idiots who worship my chemical romance should stay the hell away from the comic book scene and gerard's comic side? do we really need all of them making stupid posts like "OMG GERARD IS SO KUTE I LOVE HIM I WANNA MARRY HIM ^.^ HE'S SO HOT!11!1!1!!"...fucking shit man, shut the hell up and take that immature shit somewhere else...

  • I agree.

    I've liked comic books since i was very little and know the emo fan girls have infiltrated the hold sacred ground that is grahic novels.

    Gerard way writes better comics than music.

  • Well its nothing new. In fact, most of the little girls now are probably either daughters of or nieces to people who liked the original Neil Gaiman Sandman or Strangers In Paradise. Maybe the grunge chick soccer moms will stick the new crop of teeny boppers between slices of wheat bread and have a snack. I actually respect UA, I've read some issues its just that personal politics notwithstanding I would like to see more popular counterbalance to it like The Escapist. Why not a team of that?

  • Well, yes. The fan girls should just leave. Now that aside the comic really is really good. Also where are the screaming fan girls for Gabriel Bá?

  • totally man, that is pretty stupid of them, get a life

  • haha fangirl0488

  • thanx for pointing that out ... made me day

  • @neostg who the fuck gives a shit if you think its annyoing or not if someone likes gerard or loves him.... im pretty sure you comment was just a fucking retarded as some of the ones your talking about so back off and leave everyone alone

  • @matrixgrl Lol who gives a fuck? How about anyone with a legit love for comic books who doesn't want the scene being flooded with moronic, immature little psychos like you? Take your nonsense elsewhere you mental waste.

  • @neostg haha,luckily i was a comic geek before i bought gerards comic and got into mcr

  • @neostg I LOVE My Chemical Romance! But I have a seperate love for The Umbrella Acadamy! I wanted the comics because Gerard wrote them, but after I started to read them, I was like "Holyy shit! G's talents go FAR beond music!!" I have always been a comic book fan, but these are BY FAR the best comics I have read! I think the storyline is great! There are a lot of comics about superheros that work in teams whether its brother and sister, or the Justice League! But they make it different!!

  • @neostg i like my chemical romance and the comic book that he wrote but im not llike that soo u shyould think b4 u say

  • Comment removed

  • i think Ba deserves some credit. he is an amazing artist and although i do love my hellboy comics the most his artwork is much better better than Mingolas

  • I love the art of umbrella academy, alot of my art is inspired by it.

  • gerard is so talented he can sing nd he can mke great comics

  • me too!

  • i luv the umbrella academy before i red it i had never read a comic so MCR introduced me to something new...thanks to my dads friend Mike who gave me the whole first seris

  • woooo love the umbrella academy:)

  • the character is called "Cracken" is a jerk, isnt that somewhat ironic that Gerard has a fued with Bert McCracken lol.

  • It's "Kraken."

  • who cares?

  • hm maybe people who don't think stupid things like "OMG gerard named a character after someone he has problems with!!!". 8 months late, i know, but...still worth commenting

  • DUDE I MET GERARD WAY AT A SIGNING IN PORTLAND I win ha ha

  • i loves garard

  • in the comics convention and.......hot topic..and..i dont remember xD

  • he he

  • his hair looks awesome

  • i cant believe my uncles went and they couldnt bring me or they couldnt meet him =-( they were goin to but they ran out of tix =-(

  • I just ordered 1-6 so hopefully they come soon. I'm a big Umbrella Academy Fan thanks to looking at youtube <3!! I also am a big fan of MCR, but I don't think they should mix together. With comics think of Gerard as just another writer and with MCR think of him as a kick ass singer.
