I honestly need to watch LOTMS again it's been a while..., because I did almost forget that he was doing art for UA on it. Also as much as I like seeing new people reading the comics, it's still super weird to me that they likely think the comics are new (not everyone checks the publication date) when I know that they have been around for at least 12 years. I'm not used to being in the position of the hipster.
Dani Warnecke hes not hiding behind anything- don’t shame him for not looking the way you want him to. He’s perfect, his hair is perfect, and the beard is amazing.
Gerard is truly one of the sweetest people on this planet. When I met him, he was so unbelievably kind, despite being anxious due to the massive amount of people he was interacting with that day. I was just going to ask him to sign one thing and he kept saying, "want me to sign that, too?" and I kept saying "Oh, I don't want to be a pain" and he was like "Not at all! Give it here" and signed like 8 things, including my original Revenge CD that I've had for 15 years. It means the absolute world to me. He also complimented my cosplay, which did wonders for my confidence because it was the first time I ever cosplayed in public. Being plus size, I was super nervous about that.
Liesel Fiebke 😂😂😂 Well, funny story. I was super cool and normal when I was talking to him, but as soon as I walked out of that room I literally collapsed and started SOBBING
Liesel Fiebke Meeting someone whose art had such an enormous impact on your life is definitely a surreal experience. And for him to be so kind and genuine like I always knew he would be was just really special.
4:39 "I think people that follow my interviews are probably getting sick of hearing about super pickle" Me, watching the 8th Gerard Way interview I've watched today: You underestimate our love for you and your pickle friend, Gerard ;) haha
Mcr is merely a side project at this point 😭 jk lmao. But I’m happy people are now finally noticing he has talent in his other creations and not just known as “the guy from the emo band” which there’s nothing wrong with that but I’m happy he’s getting recognized now for his other longtime passions since childhood :)
gerard has said before that all of his projects are his main projects. and even if it was a side project, don’t make it a bad thing, be grateful that they’re even back and he let it happen
shann the man yeah I understand that. I was mainly joking about it being a side project cause we haven’t seen much happen but that’s totally fine because I’m still happy they even got back together
Funny thing is he made it a point to seperate his music from his comics, at least at first. When Umbrella Academy was coming out he didn't allow the use of My Chemical Romance "the really big emo band that was going places" as a marketing tool. I remember because a couple of my friends were already fans of MCR and I was new to the band. And they told me. I'm pretty sure we were at a library and they wanted to see if the library had the volume of apocalypse suite so they could borrow it- so it might have been just after it won the award. Basically it was fairly well known among MCR fans that he did both, but it hadn't become general fact about MCR yet. But yes, it's good to see that people from the mainstream are discovering that link and noticing that he has talent for both/either because of the Netflix show.
Cant have success without a back burner project. And MCR will carry on even in replays. The black parade may be dead but we will carry on! And tho tbeyre dead and gone believe me tbeir memories will carry on. GnOteWarning!
The fact that there is so much behind the scenes of creating ins mind blowing! Spider-verse, umbrella academy, doom patrol, killjoys.... and the fact that MCR was going to be on tour for all 2020 is crazy. Keep creating
I truly admire him as a creator and a person. So genuine, so talented. I am so happy to see the recognition he is getting for his work (aside from MCR of course. A band that was integral in defining a generation.) I am truly excited to see what comes from his mind. It will inevitably be wonderful. It will inevitably save lives. Everything this guy touches becomes so unique and special. He is a superhero in my eyes.
@@Catamorada its not just a band or an idea simply... its a collective experience for all involved. Dude. So how d8d you handle the break/up/xown down/and reformation/reunion/return
i used to be so sad that i just discovered mcr and never got to see them, but i’m glad gerard is still relevant because he still helps me with myself everyday. also can we talk about how adorable he is. i look at pictures of him then and now and even though i was barely born when they were just starting making music, i’ve watched so many videos of them from all the years up until now and it feels like i’ve seen them grow. it makes me happy
@@kelle494 if they came back this is meaning that they believe in the band and in their music. Gerard has this second work about comics, but if there wasn't the Covid 19, they have done their concerts but for the Covid the tour will be in 2021. I think and I'm sure that they will do their tour of Return and in 2022 a new album will coming. I believe in them and Mikey said that they will back better than before and I believe in Mikey! Please guys don't do any problems, just have patience and all will be better I'm sure!
what are all of you talking about, they're back together. they were going to do a whole tour this year, and because of COVID, it's been pushed to next year instead
Gerard is such an inspirational person. He went from being berd at school to making the iconic band (writing songs) with UNIQUE style and becoming a sexy legend. And after years he did a solo career and right now his comic book (the thing he was the most passionate about) became on of the most popular series of these years. Also I didn't even mention the problems he went through to be a better person! Gerard is an icon!
I thought it was super cool when I found out Gee made Peni. The Spiderman universe is my favorite hero universe and when I heard that, I just thought it was really rad! My parents don't really let me read comics especially if there's too much violence or too dark of a theme (they're very conservative), but next year when I'm eighteen, I'm totally buying as many volumes as I can of this man's stuff, lol. I've seen a couple stray pages online and I always get frustrated cause I wanna read them so badly. Also, I find it funny that Gee used to say "y'know what I'm sayin'?" a lot more when he was younger, but now that he's older, he just says "y'know?" Idk, just something funny I noticed.
Bro, you're 17. You can get into R-rated movies. I work at a local shop. You can buy comics at a local comic shop without ever having a parent with you. Just get down there and pick up your books man. The world could end tomorrow. Enjoy what you can while you can.
I've never been a fan of the culture of celebrity or idol worship, but G is probably the only famous person I know truly worthy of complete and utter adoration.
You look at this guy Andrew, you can see on his face he's fascinated listening to Gerard talk and tell his story. Great host. Anyways, Gerard is such a talented man.
Gerard Way's look has matched his career focus since day 1, hurry up with the next season of Umbrella Academy man! I binged the new season in a day lol
I love how the magority of comments consist people talking about him not wearing the green jacket, or people taking about comics. Or how much they love him
There were so many people way way back in film history, whondid the hard work the wrote directed scripted amd they made films that are now lost to time... but they have every single right to the laud that Gerard has worked for and worked to be a part of the "world" that is art, comix, and music the guy had a mass ton of impact on history.
he does i believe, i heard he sends them to people as reaction images and it makes me laugh every time picturing him just texting mikey the pickle gee pic
Let's all say thank you to the fan in Japan who got Gerard those Copic markers, cos we might not have ever had the masterpiece that The Umbrella Academy today. THANK YOU
I absolutely loved this interview, it gave me so much joy and inspiration. Gerard is an angel and such a magnificent artist, I admire him so much. I'm so happy I found this 🥰
I love all the Grard way's job . , i love his comic and his histories. El es un artista completo , todo su arte es maravilloso . saludos desde Chile . me encanta cuando el sonrie .
The fact it says "MCR frontman" just, aaa my heart, thank you return tour for making that sentence a thing hehe also- hE ISNT WEARING THE INFAFMOUS JACKET, whO iS thIS impoSTER??
I have not seen the UA or read any of his comics. Not a particular fan of comics but when I see Gerard I still watch anyway! He is special! Talented and pure...
You should if you can, it's really excellent. Not just for comic book geeks or MCR fans. Easy sell for me but my wife (neither of the above) was hooked within minutes. The depth of the characters, imagination & sense of fun really sets it apart from the crowd.
He’s not wearing the green jacket 👁👄👁
Gallo 22 it feels weird not seeing him in it
The first thing I noticed haha
Is it weird that I miss it?
The universe is about explode! :o
He’s EVOLVING
You know when ur a super fan when you remember gerard doing art for umbrella academy on life on the murder scene
There was the seance and Luther was called the Darwinist.
Yes 😭
Or even before LOTMS when Gerard first showed Steven from Stevens untiltled rock show during warped tour. Holy shit what was it 2005? 😭
I honestly need to watch LOTMS again it's been a while..., because I did almost forget that he was doing art for UA on it.
Also as much as I like seeing new people reading the comics, it's still super weird to me that they likely think the comics are new (not everyone checks the publication date) when I know that they have been around for at least 12 years. I'm not used to being in the position of the hipster.
y e s, he was talking about it and i could literally see the original drawings in my head
HES NOT WEARING THE GREEN JACKET WHO IS THIS
I DONT KNOW I WANT GERARD BACK-
It’s Jake from State Farm
But still wearing a jacket tho
Dani Warnecke that doesn’t have anything to do with this comment and also he’s not hiding
Dani Warnecke hes not hiding behind anything- don’t shame him for not looking the way you want him to. He’s perfect, his hair is perfect, and the beard is amazing.
I love hearing Gerard's stories. His ability to tell stories works in every platform - in comics, in music, in interviews - really is his gift.
Gerard is amazing, also you were the 1st comment
Its also a skill. And he is well versed in practice.

IF HE SIGNED ONE OF MY CDS I WOULD KEEL OVER RIGHT THERE THAT WOULD BE TOO MUCH FOR MY LITTLE HEART 😂

I’m feeling the need to hug Gerard and say “thank you Gee, you’re definitely such a inspiration and amazing person.” 🥺
Me too, as soon as I saw him, I just started smiling. He's amazing :)
@@menacingjack yep!
That’s literally how I feel every single day

"There's something I'm really excited about something that doesn't involve comics"
I was like

wednesday apples
Yeah he did say "does" my dumb ears just misheard it :'))))
I was wondering if that meant music?
@@ChrisConnolly-Mr.C-Dives-In new album???
Jx Mah I would listen to that.
I loved this interview, Gerard seemed so comfortable and happy! And loved Andrew's reactions😂
no green jacket???? new era???
we should hold a funeral for it
it’s just clothes lmfao not that deep
@@kelle494 its a joke
I mean yes but no. The new era is clearly based on the grim reaper cult look. This look in the video is too normal for the new era :P
sophia they could recreate Helena, but it’s the jacket and not actually Helena
I cant even watch this because his happiness is making me cry from joy and cuteness overload and my family is gonna think im depressed again
ok me

I’m the same
always love to hear about super pickle!!! i could listen to gerard telling stories for hours and wouldn't get bored

I look at him now and think that he isnt as cute anymore but then i hear his voice... that never gets older....
______ hes huggable and cute
*Y E S*
______ well hes happier now and healthy and hes still just as adorable in my opinion
Oh, yeah. Just a little album called "Revenge" (Three Cheers for Sweet). Only an absolute hallmark of emo culture. Nbd.
trulyyy
Time?
HE LOOKS SO CUTE AND HAPPY AND HE SOUNDS SO PASSIONATE ABOUT COMICS IM ACTUALLY SOBBING🥺
SAME
@The AniMATEy hiii
He still has perfect eyebrows. Love him so much.
I'll watch anything that has Gerard in it
Take a shot (of water) every time he says “y’know”
You will be very hydrated
I will never get tired of Super Pickle
23:43 HE BLUSHED OMG I LOVE HIM SO MUCH
