If I were in that store, I’d be looking at him, thinking, “that guy looks a lot, like ‘Gerard Way’ from MCR”, then go about my business; never knowing that was actually ‘Gerard Way’.
fr. he also used to change styles so often back in the day it would have been practically impossible to tell whether it was actually him or not. every couple of months was a different haircut and/or color.
i was like....mention the lack of pants. pls mention it. dangerous why? bc the mf-er looking like he is on the way home from gay pride and yet his leotard counts as a superhero costume.
my dream is literally to have gerard way pick up a comic of mine and say "this is my favourite" and then i could make it into a show or movie or something. *we all can dream*
Reminder that he used to work for dc comics back in the 90s as an intern. Comic book culture is pretty chill tbh people either wanna talk books or characters I met Gerard at my local cbs about a month before his doom patrol run came out and we legit talked for about an hour about how superman books were at the time really good books and how he and his kid love the superman and jon Kent superboy dynamic
Age doesnt match up with Gerard way in his 20s he looked like a teen, In his 30s he still looked like a teen and now he looks like hes in his 20s Gerard DOES NOT FRIKIN AGE HE IS A VAMPIRE
The worst thing is I read this comment before I got to that part of the video and just casually accepted it as some random person commenting on gerards looks
Batman: “hey kid wear this bright colored looking suit, so everyone shoots at you while I do my thing” Robin: “Holly heart failure Batman, that sounds dangerous, but ok”
Well yeah, we has a small collection of colored Akira manga. The thing is though that he can't read it. He said that it's all in Japanese but he still keeps them cause they're cool
As soon as he said that I wanted to see a comic book with that exact scene. It would be hilarious to see Robin being used like that and Batman giving zero shits about him.
Came to the comments to specifically check if anyone else lost it at his costume commentary. "He has no body armor, he's wearing the brightest colors, and it makes no sense." I'm fucking dead, LOL.
Tom Faye it’s actually more of Robin’s decision, at least originally. He made his own costume and went out on his first night against Batman’s orders. Why do you think it looks like something a circus acrobat would wear? Later on Nightwing comics would explain that Dick Grayson was born to be in the spotlight and to put on a show. It’s in his blood (he has a family of circus acrobats) so that’s what he tends to do and why he ends up going on his own anyway. Because even with those colours everyone still pays more attention to Batman.
"I love Robin, I'm so obsessed with Robin's costume because it is so incredibly dangerous, like he has no body armor and he's wearing the brightest costume it makes no sense." 😂 You have to love him.😂
When you look at Gerard you always see such a small, gentle little being. He seems incredibly modest, shy even, and it would be easy to just look right past him. You almost forget that this is the absolute badass, sexy beast, with a voice that can tear down buildings. From three cheers to hesitant alien, this man is a fucking demon.
Ah he's so cute! And I don't mean this in a soppy fan girl way either. Just seems like a wholesome down to earth person! In all seriousness, if I was working in a comic store and he walked in, I'd have 0 chill 😂
*Fun fact:* Akira is extremely historically significant in media because the comic was turned into a movie, and that movie (also titled Akira) was well received not only in Asian countries but also in Western and other countries. It popularized anime in other cultures and thus paved the way for many anime we know and love today!

This is why I feel it’s so weird for young kids to have crushes on these guys now. Lol! The age difference is severely inappropriate. At least when I was a teenager the age difference wasn’t as bad being that he was in his 20s. Still not really appropriate though. 😂
@@emerald4756 Well I think it's fine and innocent for the kids to be attracted to older people, but the other way around definitely wouldnt be appropriate lol.
When I first heard of Gerard it was on MTV on a segment called you hear it first. Yes MCR was making waves as a new band but..they were discussing his work as an illustrator and his love for comics. As a comic book fan and wannabe comic artist I was intrigued by this before I loved MCR 🤘🏽
THIS WAS IN AUSTRALIA MY COUNTRY IVE BEEN IN THAT SHOP IVE BEEN THERE GERARD WAS IN MY COUNTRY GERARD WAS IN A STORE THAT IVE BEEN IN MY CHEM WAS IN MY COUNTRY WHAT
1:09 when he showed that art style, I literally was thinking in my head "hey, that looks like the same style as the cover of Revolver by the Beatles. And then he said it. Bruh what.
I love this kind of videos, cuz it shows this calm, "nerdy" part of him Being an absolute fan of Doctor Who, Neil Gaiman & Dune I've been really happy to know that even tho I'll probably never meet him in person, unfortunately, we share some passions, some traits. Even tho I won't meet him personally, next June I'll see My Chem in concert for the first time, in Paris, and I'm very excited !
His voice is so soft and quiet. Compared to his music, I didn't even recognize it! I saw the title and his face and it took like a solid minute out of this video to get used to his voice lmao
I love this, I wish there were more videos like this where we just follow a celebrity around a bookstore while they talk about their favorite books/writers
MCR: we are reunited! Band in rehearsal: Where's Gerard? Gerard: *just comic book shopping* Edit: I really want to thank everyone who liked my comment. It's probably the best thing that's happened on my UA-cam channel. Thank you all. I'm hoping he won't be comic book shopping during the uk reunion shows XD
He sounds like me explaining why I hate peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. “Yeah so like, I just don’t think the jelly mixes well with thick peanut butter. Yeah I just don’t like it because it doesn’t taste or feel good to eat you know?”
I can’t believe he was in that store in my hometown, we used to go there when we finished for the day at uni in the city, and he’s one of my favorite musicians. What was I doing that day in 2015 when it was filmed haha.
I have never even heard this dude talk before. I saw them live briefly on the way back from Korn at Download 07 but wasn't interested at all. But to see how knowledgable and dedicated he is to books, comics, and what he loves is awesome. New found respect!
Im just imagining that he probably takes his daughter comic shopping and he probably geeks out while showing her all the stuff he really likes while she's just like "yeah okay" ToT
Gerard Way remind me a lot of like Quentin Tarantino when he talks about stuff he cares about. Like you can tell he's one of the people that ACTUALLY knows everything about something, they aren't just faking it for attention or trying to rub it in your face.
This guy is so down to earth qnd is such a lovely chap. He was doing a gig in my home town in the U.K. My friend took his daughter to watch it and she was a massive fan. After the show they waited outside with it hammering down with rain just to get a glimpse of him up close. And my friend said he he came up and spoke to everyone waiting and signed autographs. His daughter got emotional and cried Gérard asked if he could give her a hug and gave her a nice one. My friend said thank you to him and he said it was his pleasure. Then he turned to my friend qnd went do you want a hug. And my mate laughed and went nah its OK. Gerard laughed and said don't be silly everyone wants a hug and gave him a bro hug. Ever since my mate told me that story been fascinated by the man. Just seems a really cool guy.
Oh, cool, they're filming in Minotaur Books in Melbourne, Australia. Tristan "T Rex" Jones, a comic artist who has worked on IDW Ghostbusters and both Mirage and IDW TMNT comics, works the register there some days.
Honestly it is the first time I see him on an interview, I only ever listened to the music, but figured someone had to be smart because MCR are THAT good. In fact he has great taste, I'm just surprised he didn't pick B.P.R.D. since it was in front of him, other than that he picked some real quality stuff, Herbert of course, but I too feel that Akira is one of the best stories ever, not to mention the great art and great anime adaptation, I was almost obsessed by it as a teenager. I hope he continues to write great music or any other form of art, the world lacks this kind of genuineity.
How am I just seeing this now? I love Minotaur... I actually bought a Gerard Way Funko pop from there. Wonder if they started stocking it after this visit
I was never a huge my chemical romance fan but did every once in a while play a song or two, but this was super fun to watch since I’m huge into comics and hearing people speak about it is just the best thing.
Fun fact: the current MCR logo is a candle with a sigil in the middle that appears to be based on the band's name, meaning it might have been created using one of Grant Morrison's techniques.
*Forgets that Gerard’s voice isn’t crazy and loud like in his songs and is actually very soft and calm*
He looks like he's a fan of MCR, not a lead singer of MCR .

I have never even heard this dude talk before. I saw them live briefly on the way back from Korn at Download 07 but wasn't interested at all. But to see how knowledgable and dedicated he is to books, comics, and what he loves is awesome. New found respect!
Oh okay this is from 2015 because now as about to say like holy crap he lost a lot of weight way too quickly.
Oh!
aww
You crushed me with that piano of reality
Oh
@@justagirpup lmfao
Love that Dave in umbrella Academy has the same favorite book as Gerard
Im just imagining that he probably takes his daughter comic shopping and he probably geeks out while showing her all the stuff he really likes while she's just like "yeah okay" ToT
I’m still in love with Gerard, and I’ve been listening since “Helena” was on MTV. He’s just amazingly talented.
He's precious. I love how he's like, "I like comics. Comics are cool." And he's so akward it gives me hope.
Gerard Way remind me a lot of like Quentin Tarantino when he talks about stuff he cares about. Like you can tell he's one of the people that ACTUALLY knows everything about something, they aren't just faking it for attention or trying to rub it in your face.
I went to this exact shop last year and then after a month I watched this video and was like “GERARD WAY WENT TO THIS COMIC BOOK STORE?!”
This guy is so down to earth qnd is such a lovely chap. He was doing a gig in my home town in the U.K. My friend took his daughter to watch it and she was a massive fan. After the show they waited outside with it hammering down with rain just to get a glimpse of him up close. And my friend said he he came up and spoke to everyone waiting and signed autographs. His daughter got emotional and cried Gérard asked if he could give her a hug and gave her a nice one. My friend said thank you to him and he said it was his pleasure. Then he turned to my friend qnd went do you want a hug. And my mate laughed and went nah its OK. Gerard laughed and said don't be silly everyone wants a hug and gave him a bro hug. Ever since my mate told me that story been fascinated by the man. Just seems a really cool guy.
aww thats amazing
The people around him must not be fans.
Or they just don't know it's him, because he isn't screaming...
Still love ya
I would watch a series of Gerard doing this as often as it was made available. I literally can’t get enough of this it’s awesome.
I can't believe he is one of the creators of umbrella academy, such a talented guy.
Oh, cool, they're filming in Minotaur Books in Melbourne, Australia.
Tristan "T Rex" Jones, a comic artist who has worked on IDW Ghostbusters and both Mirage and IDW TMNT comics, works the register there some days.
The hair the vibe the fact that he’s in a comicbook shop sharing his must loves is the absolute best! Cool Beanie & Jacket Accident
I didn’t expect to fall for him again after 10 years
he seems so nervous but excited about what he’s talking about 🥺
Now this is the content I singed up for
Honestly it is the first time I see him on an interview, I only ever listened to the music, but figured someone had to be smart because MCR are THAT good. In fact he has great taste, I'm just surprised he didn't pick B.P.R.D. since it was in front of him, other than that he picked some real quality stuff, Herbert of course, but I too feel that Akira is one of the best stories ever, not to mention the great art and great anime adaptation, I was almost obsessed by it as a teenager. I hope he continues to write great music or any other form of art, the world lacks this kind of genuineity.
hes a genuis of his time and he will be remember for decades and decades to come IMO - i call it now
How am I just seeing this now? I love Minotaur... I actually bought a Gerard Way Funko pop from there. Wonder if they started stocking it after this visit
I was never a huge my chemical romance fan but did every once in a while play a song or two, but this was super fun to watch since I’m huge into comics and hearing people speak about it is just the best thing.
the umbrella academy creator like literally still processing this. legendary
Fun fact: the current MCR logo is a candle with a sigil in the middle that appears to be based on the band's name, meaning it might have been created using one of Grant Morrison's techniques.
