Article on Gerard's ComicCon panel with Grant Morrison in which he reveals that "he dresses like he lives in The Umbrella Academy universe when working on the book". Oh Gee! Could he be any more geekily perfect? He's having such fun with all this ( Read more... )

I'm filled with RIDICULOUS levels of GLEE over the news that The Umbrella Academy won an Eisner Award for best limited series. That's pretty damn impressive! Go Gerard Way, comic book author!! I mean, I'm sitting here grinning like an idiot, so I can't even IMAGINE the glee-faces that Gerard is making... I am SOOOO happy for him! ::clasps hands to ( Read more... )

Ok, so I promised fajrdrako Gerard Way picspam but have just spent two hours collecting the following links, so I'm going to post them instead. The picspam will be forthcoming, eventually - and hey, anticipation is half the fun! Isn't it? ::grins evilly::
