According to MTV, the guys from My Chemical Romance are out and about doing their own things: Mikey is doing his own comic, Gerard is penning something “top secret” for DC Comics (he was an intern there while he was a student at SVA in case you didn’t know), Ray is doing a Weezer tribute band (how effing awesome is that?!), we already know about Frank and Leathermouth, and Bob is in Chicago for some “unspecified reason” (perhaps because he lives there?).

Gerry (I assume is prounounced “Jerry” since the report is referring to Gerard; petname?) has also confirmed they will be “taking it slow” on the next record which he says will be a more stripped down record without the bells and whistles but not necessarily more punk. He said to expect it to be more of a social commentary but don’t expect a “boo hoo we got famous” record.

There’s more press on Desolation Row and other things, but it’s nothing we don’t already know so I’ll quit posting it.
