Awal hidup dan pendidikan

Gerard dan adiknya Mikey ada didedahkan dengan banyak artis sepanjang hidup mereka seperti Iron Maiden, The Misfits, Danzig, Black Flag, Queen, Pulp, Blur, Morrissey dan The Smiths.[5] Neneknya turut mengalakkan bakatnya dengan membeli gitar ketika berusia lapan tahun, dan beliau pernah terlibat dalam seberapa kugiran kecil bersama Ray Toro. Setelah penceburan awal ini dirasakan tidak membuahkan hasil, beliau memilih menumpu masuk dalam bidang seni terutamanya bidang perkomikan[6] lalu membuat keputusan melanjutkan pelajarannya di School of Visual Arts Bandar Raya New York. Beliau lulus dengan ijazah Sarjana Muda Seni Halus tahun 1999.[7][8]

Walau bagaimanapun, penyaksian kejadian pengganasan hebat yang melanda kota itu pada 11 September 2001 segera merubah pendirian dan hala tujunya yang mula memberontak.[9] Beliau segera menulis muzik meluahkan rasa emosi bergolak ini - lagu pertama ditulisnya "Skylines and Turnstiles" menjadi titik mula My Chemical Romance[10] yang diasaskan bersama adiknya Mikey.

suntingBeliau mula mencuba nasibnya mengarang buku komik pada tahun 1993 ketika berusia 16 tahun dengan menerbitkan siri On Raven's Wings terbitan Bonyard Press di bawah nama "Garry Way", namun penerbitan tersebut terhenti pada isu kedua akibat terhentinya kerjasama dengan pasukan ilustrasi diberikan penerbit itu.[11]
Beliau mula mengarang karya keduanya The Umbrella Academy pada 2007 sebagai mengisi masa lapang ketika MCR tidak kesibukan.[8] .
