OMG IKR!! I can't tell you how many times I gasped and almost cried at the whole story, Doey's story MESSED. ME. UP.

AND THE ENDING!!! I don't wanna give away any spoilers, BUT OH MY GOD IT LEADS ME TO SO MANY NEW THEORIES!!!!!

Spoilers!!

This chapter didnt go as hard on the terror, the jumpscares and all

But the psychological horror?? The sense of agony and distress you get while uncovering the lore, the almost silent chases, the bigger bodies backstories, THE DOCTOR, everything felt so...you feel trapped. The weight of the lore here was huge, so intrinsic, imbued in questions of morality and revenge and the most grotesque senses of dehumanization, Doey's story is GROTESQUE and SAD, the kid's diaries destroyed me, Poppy is just a wreck of how traumatized she is, Ollie :((.

Gosh its so good. This series is so good. Im in awe.

It's my birthday, so I'm indulging myself and drawing something for my Evil NSR AU (not the canon silly evil where the characters are misguided, but like really evil — especially the older NSR members). I was originally inspired by this post. [Also click for better quality]

Here are some headcanons about both Nova and J within the AU 👇:

DJ Subatomic Supernova

• Some kind of space cult leader, who mainly uses people's discontentment and loss of purpose for his own gain.

• He wears an IVA spacesuit and vows to lead humanity to extraterrestrial worlds in his lifetime.

• His followers either call him "The Avatar of Earth" or "Helios" ("Helios", because he sometimes appears bright like the sun, when in truth, he's actually more like a black hole: sucks the light and warmth from around him)

• If his academic competency or intelligence ever gets questioned, he immediately pulls out his doctoral degree (he has numerous copies of it and carries at least one on his person at all times).

• Is extremely talented at making people feel insecure and diminished, meanwhile he constantly highlights his own excellency and greatness (he even shapeshifts to appear bigger, if needed).

• He's very charismatic and manipulative. You'd better have received some special training if you wanted to be unaffected by his massive gravitational pull — and it still might not work.

Neon J

• Far-right patriotic warmonger, who sponsors military propaganda in Vinyl City.

• Paranoid war veteran, who romanticizes the navy and lauds his military accomplishments (always wears his medals and other badges/stuff signifying his rank).

• Has assigned himself the city's protector and spends all of his resources in military preparations.

• Never takes off his mask or hat in public due to severe scarring on his left side.

• Tries to act aloof and cold/devoid of emotions, but often loses his temper, especially in the face of insubordination. He won't allow any individuality among his ranks (1010), because he firmly believes, that it could eventually lead to mutiny.

• "Attack is the best defense!" & "Why would I waste my money on funding children's hospitals when I need to prepare this city for an upcoming war?!"

(Btw I also opened my ask box, so if you want to know more about this AU or have any other questions related to my art or previous posts, or just want to say hi, then be my guest! I'll try to provide comprehensive answers to whatever questions you might have in mind.)

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. 

Master of None - Morgue intro (Death-Game MM)

This is from a game that i've been working on for a long time, now. It's finally, FINALLY in a good beta state. Using this video to promo it on the itch.io p...

Hey guys, check it out! I’ve got a yewchewbe

This needs to be the next big thing

IMAGINING AKUTAGAWA WITH ATTACHMENT ISSUES AFTER ATSUSHI DIED IN FRONT OF HIM (or vice versa)

God I know they suck at actually communicating their feelings with words and instead die for each other, but I can't get the possibility of Akutagawa being majorly effected by Atsushi's death enough to where he can't bear to leave Atsushi alone, out of my head

(side note: I think Akutagawa should join the Agency. We already know from beast he'd make a pretty decent detective)

I know Akutagawa's terrified of losing Atsushi. And Atsushi had to die to save him for him to even realize that 🙏 Asagiri you wizard I love how you write Sskk's relationship

But like, just imagine an Akutagawa trailing Atsushi around like a lost dog (one could almost say...a stray dog) on his days off or Akutagawa constantly checks up on him and calls him or just like small little, caring things like that. Akutagawa with the realization of how much Atsushi means to him

Also, speaking of sskk clinginess; sskk reunion

Asagiri is most likely going to do what none of us expects with however he approaches the sskk reunion, but oh my goodness every new chapter that drops changes my ideas for how it'll unfold

I wonder if they'll talk. If they'll hug. They should probably hug. And talk. They really need to talk atp

And you know they're going to argue. But not a real argument, the kind of sskk argument that they only do to talk about their actual problems

Ohhhh there's just so many layers to sskk and I don't know if I can pluck them all apart. And right now I'm really just wondering about the what ifs of their changed relationship

(I'm absolutely PINING for a chance of Atsushi asking "do you hate me?" which makes Akutagawa have to answer with his current/future character growth)

COME ON GUYS GIVE ALAN SOME LOVE!!!
