If anyone is curious about the future of the Killjoys show, here’s Gerard talking about it

[sir-rosie]

[wkilofficial]

he’s a radio dj in a post apocalyptic reality distorted desert cut off from the rest of the world. he has an almost magical way with words. he has a strong connection to music as a form of communication. he has three names and a mullet. he’s even gay. am i talking about agent cherri cola or cecil gershwin palmer

i’m excited to finally be able to share my danger days LPS customs with y’all — based off of the fursonas i designed for them a few months ago :]

I can't stop thinking about how much the killjoys would love zines as they're a relatively low-tech way of sharing both art and information across the desert. I'm imagining killjoys from different zones trading zines when they cross paths in the desert, and Dr Death Defying promoting them on the radio. Photos taken on film and old gas stations kitted out to develop them. Zines sharing tips on everything from scavenging food in the desert to changing a spark plug, with detailed illustrations. Cherri Cola's poetry becoming popular in zines first before he got on the radio. Art is the weapon. Witness accounts of firefights, an archive of obituaries, issues treasured because the killjoys who put them together got ghosted not long after. How to reduce turbo lag, how to make Power Pup taste less like dog food, how to do liberty spikes. Zines by battery city escapees, zines by recovering waveheads, zines by 'joys injured in combat. Art depicting the "neverending party" at the Nest, the harsh beauty of the desert and the bright colours of the killjoys. There are really so many possibilities.

what IM really thinking about might be superficial but the cars of the Fabulous Killjoys (national anthem) is the same car that the Fabulous Four end up driving (danger days).

how did they get that car??? did mike just ditch it somewhere in california and the fab4 just find it and say “hell yeah CAR”

this is my best guess because in the last few pages of the last issue of national anthem, mike is seen in his content life and goes home in a normal car.

Maybe he knew The Girl’s mother since the analog wars were mentioned and let her have it and then the fab4 gets it…..,, food for thought,,,,,

so killjoys comics right? i’ve had California for about a year. it’s wonderful. amazing images and story telling and everything. i got National Anthem this past year for Christmas. read it yesterday in one go. it’s wonderful. amazing images and story telling and everything.

i’ve seen that majority of people far prefer California, and have to read National Anthem several times to somewhat understand it. idk why, it’s probably autism-related, but i understood it perfectly on my first read. i probably prefer it to California.

i don’t really get how it’s hard to understand? i mean i sort of do with the way it’s layed out and each chapter being sort of different perspectives but also not? but i loved the story and the concept behind it.

i really admired the character backstory and development behind Mike Milligram and the way BL/I wiped them so they had little to no memory of being killjoys.

also trans Kara makes me so unbelievably happy. the fact that they all catch on instantly. they don’t give a shit that she’s trans, they just want her to come back to them. to keep rebelling. that’s what i adore about Gerard’s writing.

i don’t know if it classifies as a ‘coming out scene’ but i found quite a few correlations with that and Viktor’s coming out in season 3 of Netflix’s ‘The Umbrella Academy’.

it made me really interested to see that possibly that scene was based of Gerard’s previous writing in National Anthem. i know Gerard isn’t too involved in the actual producing of the show, but they obviously have some input since they wrote the comics the show, primarily the first season, are based on.

this may be far-fetched but i love the thought that Steve Blackman or anyone else working behind scenes in the show possibly had a look at, or had already read, Gerard’s previous works, and incorporated a part of that into the show.

also, rehashing the Viktor transition thing. as a transgender person myself, i absolutely love and admire the way the transition and coming out was represented in the show. and i know that some people were a little shocked to see how quickly the producers worked it in to the season.

but really?

nothing written by, or based off something written by Gerard Way would ever do a transition scene wrongly.

that is all, thank you.

Val has fallen down into an eternal loop through void. You can't save him sorry.

I've become fond of this one slightly pixelated brush that works really good on those images
