"Gerard Way announced that he is working on a new series called The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys at the Dark Horse panel at San Diego&amp;#039;s Comic-Con International. The My Chemical Romance singer and Umbrella Academy creator will co-write the new title with fellow musician Shaun Simon. Although details of the project are sparse, Way did say that it was inspired by &amp;#039;90s comics including Grant Morrison&amp;#039;s The Invisibles. &amp;quot;[It&amp;#039;s] a complete and total departure from anything I&amp;#039;ve done in Umbrella Academy,&amp;quot; Comic Book Resources quotes him as saying. &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s almost like a strange kind of love letter to the really great comics of the &amp;#039;90s that kind of pushed things. &amp;quot;This thing is going to deal with much more mature and controversial themes, such as hate crimes and homophobia, the homogenization of American culture and American life. Umbrella Academy is set in its own world, with its own rules;&amp;#039;Killjoys is set in modern America. &amp;quot;I find that sometimes you can say a lot when you&amp;#039;re dealing in our times, with what people can relate with right now. It starts off at the end of the &amp;#039;90s and picks up today. I would say it&amp;#039;s more violent, heavily, and deals with much stronger themes.&amp;quot; The series, to be published by Dark Horse Comics, will debut in 2010. Way also announced a third instalment of his Eisner Award-winning Umbrella Academy series, titled Hotel Oblivion. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
