My Chemical Romace’s Gerard Way Bring ‘The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys’ To Dark Horse

Back in 2008, Way penned “Umbrella Academy”, which received praise across the board. Now, Way is back at Dark Horse with Shaun Simon and Becky Cloonan for “The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys”.

The first issue hits on June 6th, 2013. READ MORE

My Chemical Romance’s Gerard Way Launches ‘The True Lives Of The Fabulous Killjoys’ Comic In June!

When My Chemical Romance frontman turned to comic writing back in 2009, I’m not sure anyone would have guessed it would win him an Eisner Award. Now, the singer turned writer gets in gear to finally release The True Lives Of The Fabulous Killjoys with Dark Horse Comics, taking off from their album of the same name.

The story follows the Killjoys who are in a battle against Better Living Industries. All leads to tragedy for the Killjoys, while BLI thrives in the future by taking freedom away humanity. It’s up to the final member of the Killjoys to battle back in a city full of mindless citizens. Way is joined by the team of Shaun Simon, and Becky Cloonan. Look for it in stores in June 2013.
