Grant Morrison In New Chemical Romance Video
In 2007 Gerard Way of My Chemical Romance created the comic Umbrella Academy for Dark Horse Comics. It was seen as very inspired by Grant Morrison's run on Doom Patrol. Way cited Morrison as a major influence.
In 2008, Gerard Way and Grant Morrison appeared on a panel together at San Diego. In which…
When asked if Way and Morrison had thought about collaborating on something, Way said they almost made a My Chemical Romance video together, for the song "Momma" off of "The Black Parade." Morrison was going to play the devil. Some of their ideas for the video had the band being chased by wolves at one point, Liza Minnelli playing the Virgin Mary and Morrison as the devil yelling in Way's face.
Unfortunately, the video was never made.
Well, in 2010, it has been. Or one fairly similar to it, foor the song Art Is The Weapon. Morrison is there. The band are chased by people in wolf cosplay. There's stuff going on. Oh and Grant poses with a gun in a fascist uniform, What's not to love?
