My Chemical Romance frontman Gerard Way is releasing a series of comic books. The six issue set, entitled 'The Umbrella Academy' and published by Dark Horse Comics, will centre around the character of Sir Reginald Hargreeves - a "world-renowned scientist and inventor, intrepid adventurer, successful entrepreneur, champion cricketer and closet space alien."
In a statement, a spokesman for Dark Horse said: "'Umbrella Academy' is the story of seven extraordinary, maladjusted individuals, their triumphs, tragedies, failures and disappointments."
