My Chemical Romance killed off the Killjoys in spectacular fashion on their Danger Days album. But death didn’t stop co-writers Gerard Way and Shaun Simon from returning to Battery City in 2013. The comic book sequel miniseries, The True Lives Of The Fabulous Killjoys, picked up where the MCR record left off. Now, Way and Simon promise to challenge everything you think you know about their beloved band of renegades in an all-new story.

The Killjoys will, once again, make some noise in a six-part comic book series, The True Lives Of The Fabulous Killjoys: National Anthem. The first issue will be released on Oct. 14 through Dark Horse Comics. Based on the original idea that inspired the Danger Days album, it will focus on former Killjoy leader, Mike Milligram.

“In 2010, MCR released a concept record, Danger Days: The True Lives Of The Fabulous Killjoys,” Way and Simon revealed, exclusively to Alternative Press. “The record was inspired by a story that only existed in our minds. In 2013, we wrote a comic book series based on that concept record while the original story lay dormant. Now, in 2020, the story that inspired it all will be told: The True Lives Of The Fabulous Killjoys: National Anthem.

“There is no dystopian future—no wasteland to hide out in. Set in the 1990s and 2000s, National Anthem is a completely different story with a whole different set of rules. Mike Milligram and his gang of teenage exterminators operate in the Unseen where they bend reality to keep the real world’s status quo safe. But everything is about to change when the doors of the Unseen are closed and Mike and his Killjoys are thrust into the real world and forced to grow up and get real jobs. Screens, phones and a stagnant malaise become the new normal. When Mike’s TV breaks and his Ramones records seem to have been erased, he starts to wake up. Mike Milligram sets off on a journey to pull the curtains down on a cover-up that could change the course of history, past, present and future.” 

Way and Simon wrote National Anthem alongside illustrator Leonardo Romero, colorist Jordie Bellaire, and letterer Nate Piekos (The Umbrella Academy). 

The first issue will feature a cover by Romero, as seen above, along with two variant covers. One variant will feature an illustration from former Killjoys artist, and longtime Way collaborator, Becky Cloonan. The other alternate cover is by Paul Rentler, whose lo-fi photocopy design work has been previously featured through Way’s DC Comics imprint, DC’s Young Animal. You can see both variants below with Cloonan’s on the left and Rentler’s on the right.

Let’s face it, 2020 has been bleak. But if there’s one thing that can cure our quarantine blues, it’s most certainly a return of the Killjoys. Earlier this year, Dark Horse announced the reissue of the original series in a hardcover edition freshly titled Killjoys: California.

Adorned with a stark, blood-dripping Draculoid cover, this forthcoming reissue was everything we thought our little bulletproof hearts needed. But Way and Simon’s return to the original concept that inspired MCR’s 2010 record promises a fresh take on the material that we have yet to see or can begin to imagine.

The idea of Killjoys sans dystopia, working day jobs and watching their morale decay in the realm of the working stiff as they attempt to unveil a hidden truth feels like The Matrix by way of Descendents lyrics. This is definitely new territory for the Killjoys–and you better believe that we’re down for the ride. 

Did he just... you know... make an MCR reference? Throwback?

WHY AM I FREAKING OUT????? TODAY WE ALSO GOT TUA SEASON 2 AAAAAAHHHH COME ONNNNN UNIVERSE MY HEART CAN'T HANDLE TOO MUCH.

hi, this ask is an official request for you to talk about all the things you love about paul. please feel free to go wild with the pic spam to illustrate your points ❤️

If I really talked about every little thing I loved about him, it would take me days to write it up, and it would be an infinitely long post, so how about this: I’ll list a few things I love about him, both physical and personality-wise. ♡

what I love about Paul physically:

his eyes ♡

his smile ♡

his freckles ♡

his hands ♡

his lips ♡

his legs ♡

his crow’s feet ♡

his nose ♡

his graying hair/beard ♡

I also love a lot of things about him as a person...some of which are hard to summarize.

his kindness/sweet side:

comforting a crying fan:

he jumped down to get a pic with this fan cause it was his birthday:

being a sweetheart towards Cornelia, who was apart of a kids group (Children Medieval Band) that opened for them at a show in Colorado back in 2012:

and then another wonderful instance at a meet & greet where he was extremely kind to a fan and her artwork:

his appreciation for life and the things he’s earned/accomplished:

and this quote from Flake’s recently translated book ♡

being the kind of guy who isn’t afraid to express his thoughts/take no shit:

(from the 1995 Köln interview)

I’m sure I could go on and on, but those are just a few things about him I love. I really love how dedicated he is as a person, how, as Flake put it, he’s the one that grabs the reins when the others are slacking. He is definitely a no-nonsense kind of guy when it calls for it, but usually, he is all for nonsense. He’s a goofball that loves, but also a smart man who knows what needs to be done, and what needs to be said! He is whimsical, but he is also extremely realistic. ♡
