Emo boys now have a comic hero to cry for.

Haha, another prime example of MTV destroying the true defenition of "emo." And I hate that word.

www.fourfa.com

Dashboard Confessional is not an emo band.

[michaelwinters]

i am sorry, but emo is really not something that should be as marketed as it is. Really the whole movement helped me get through my youth, providing a personal support system as i made my way through the trials of high school. The music that this comic is using as its inspiration means something more to certain people. To see it have a price tag attached to it ($30 dollar Fall Out Boy Club?) just rips apart any personal meaning the music had to the kids that really know what that stuff means. It disrespects the entire emo culture, not to mention the meaning of music as a whole. Music is something that comes from the heart not a price tag.

What you listen to is not emo music dude .. Fall Out Boy? Pop-punk.

Exactly .. AND THEY HAVE IT ALL WRONG.

[QuirkyAlone]

AHHAHAHHAHA
the adventures of emo boy.

[Throwback]

This is awful. I hate the world.

[poppa Q]

it's getting very old.

[michaelwinters]

emo is different between every person, besides my argument does not just apply to emo, but any music that is made to have a personal connection. To tamper with that connection is fucked up.

[a hybrid]

atleast if the art was nice then there would be a redeeming quality to this horribly stereotypical comic. but its just horrendous on every level.

[fluke182]

"They are right about one thing...You could use a little...INSPIRATION!" Top notch writing there guys. Art sort of reminds me of Mr. Blank by Christopher Hicks, or at least a poor man's version of it. Not bad on the art, writing is rather cheesy.

[nerogtr]

emo =\. never really understood that genre name. i know the types of bands and the sound it stands for, but music is emotional by nature regardless of the genre.

[HopelessDeath]

This is fucking awesome! haha I'm so emo tonight I need to write some songs and play my keyboard. Maybe this will spurn a new cartoon series like Daria. Rad. Except he always has to carry around a 40 to drown himself in his emo rage of death. yessssssssssss.

[yanggoh]

i miss the days of sunny day real estate and pinkerton.

[xearlynovemberx]

um.................wow :huh:

[overoverme]

Maybe my finger has been far from the pulse, but wouldn't a comic like this have been much more well suited to come out like 2-3 years ago when Dashboard first 'hit it big', and 'emo' was the flavor of the week?

Regardless, the comic is stupid. I read the little teaser.

[sidewalks]

...hahaha

[lovenotwar_rx]

This is ridiculous, what the hell is MTV thinking? :headshake

[bleedingemo]

i wish this was a joke..

[jetpackbologna]

Sounds dumb.

But it sums up emo pretty accurately... don't cry, you know it's true.

Actually, the term "emo" originated as a derogatory term for the more "emotionally" lyrical (introspective, sentimental, etc.) hardcore emerging in DC in the 80s. The hardcore band and kids thought the new movement was stupid and created the word "emo" to mock it.

[failingwithease]

So...

This pretty much makes me want to stab myself in the eye.

The art isn't bad. I'd be more drawn to the writing if I didn't think it was a desperate attempt of mockery. Especially how it just goes right out there and actually says, "I'm emo." That's like holding up a tampon, pointing at your vagina and saying, "Ohmahgawd, I'm a feminist." Fucking Emo Boy. Someone needs shot for this.

[yourlocalcinema]

As funny as I think this is and as ready as I'd be to roll with it normally, it kind of sucks that he'll "ineptly attempt suicide." Judging by the wording, I'd say that means it'll be played off comically, and if something like this is going to be mass-marketed....ehhh. :/

[Spiffysthebest]

Mass marketing is fucked. Exploitation & all that shit. I hate those people.

[sparksfly]

this whole mocking emo thing is real old. this comic is just pathetic.

[Dob]

portraying a character that attempts suicide? so bascially kids are going to read this and think its okay. so now this is a mass suicide led by the media. interesting world we live in...

[seancoia]

DUMB DUMB DUMB DUMB


stupid mtv.

[thecovertcareer]

I am sad. You know, things really do suck. I've been screwed over time and time again. now when I try to design stuff for bands, either they don't pay or they dn't like it. So here I am up at 1 AM on a Saturday night designing, but where does it get me? I'll never be as good as Asterik, not without help, or an escape from having to babysit everyday. I'm sick of watching these damn kids. Design is both a love and a hate these days. Like the 10,000 bands everyone talks about, there are 10,000 designers to go with those, and like those 10,000 bands everyone talks about, the 10,000 designers suck, including my lame ass. Woe is me.

[HopelessDeath]

who really cares? It's MTV. Unless some of you go watch it and go to the site and it ruins you viewing pleasure.

Somehow I just find it so pathetic its hilarious, that and because people get all defensive when mainstream TV dives into their secluded world of emo, making them misunderstood once more, but doesn't everyone have a varying perspective of what emo really is anyways?

Just laugh at the futile attempt of trying to comprehend a genre in the form of a shotty comic. Maybe Good Charlotte or Simple Plan will make a guest appearence in it and homo porno music plays in the background.

Who knows?! OMG

that last post was more emo than my black rimmed glasses.

ps... sup man you book for the sophomore year. i just talked to the dudes from one way letter. good tour i'd say.

I mean i guess. Maybe your just retarded

hell yea

[steve-0]

dumbest thing ever. who would buy that? are they trying to be serious or are they being sarcastic about this whole thing? i cant tell. either way, its really stupid

[JTrain12]

some mothafucka must have thought my halloween costume was sweet...because i was indeed "emo boy" for halloween...it was all for fun and a joke, but i had the atticus broken heart as my logo...

[phoenixdown]

Looks like a lot of you can't take a joke.
OF COURSE they're not being fucking serious with this. It's a lampoon of a stupid stereotype that nobody likes. I'm probably as "emo" as anyone else and I realize how pathetic it is, which is why I think this is funny.

But, I guess if you don't get it, you don't get it.

[I Shoot Bands]

will he have a side kick? klenex boy?

[fluke182]

Btw, I don't believe MTV was involved with the making of the comic at all. Don't vilify them for that.

[AmIWrong]

This reminds me of the OC comic book for some reason.

[CreepyManHug]

I always thought it was a bad thing to be "emo"?

[nud0]

hahahahaha what a joke

[_all_star_me_]

are we going to have guest appearences by the likes of dashboard or whoever just to help market this product? are we going to see kids saying "emoboy saved my life. he is my hero" in the next couple of years? i rather save the money and go buy claudio's comic.

once again proving corporate america feasts on ones weakness.

[Pooavenger]

Dude I'm soooooo gonna buy these!!!

[soreloser]

I hate the word emo. I hate people who call me emo. I hate the people who try to become "emo" as a way of fitting into a crowd and being known for something. I also hate the fact that the kid in the comic strip looks exactly like me. Sick.

[ishotthepilot]

if you're going to joke, at least make it a little more obvious for everyone so they don't think you're a total dumbass and come to your house and kill you... like palahnuik wrote, "Don't create shades of gray that a mass audience can't follow."
though that can be fun.

[Sublime50lbc]

Is it just me, or does "Emo Boy" look like Woody Allen?

But regardless of the uncanny similarities, this is another stupid idea of MTV to just get laughs, which it certainly will not get. This joke is getting VERY old. :smarty:

[HalfwayJames]

Stereotypes are what makes the world go round. Besides, without stereotypes, what would we use to judge people that we don't want to take the time to know?

[Klondike Joel]

I dunno. I think it's pretty fuckin funny. Someone had to make fun of it, just as someone had to make fun of the goth/new wave kids back in the 80s, or anyone involved with the Dungeons and Dragons phenomenon. I think everyone is getting their panties in a bunch for no reason. It's obviously a fucking joke. It's obvious MTV had nothing to do with it. Quit your crying and suck it up. You're making something rather petty and simple into something much larger than it needs to be... which is pretty typical... for EMO KIDS... heh heh heh...

[maledixtion]

will he have a side kick? klenex boy?
your shows in your sig are retarded. i like how you think you can have your graduation, and go to two different shows in two different venues in one night

[bikescene]

the creator even has 'emo' as part of his last name... purely coincidental or is he in fact... EMO BOY?

[Andy]

Well. This is going to be fucking lame now isn't it.

i was thinkin Gary the Goth
Hahahaha

[Pat Marquez]

I'm probably as "emo" as anyone else

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA times fifty... are you kidding me?

PLEASE say that is a joke.

your shows in your sig are retarded. i like how you think you can have your graduation, and go to two different shows in two different venues in one night
What are you talkin about man? I Shoot Bands is the man, look at all those shows he's going to !!!!1111 Omgzz he love music n mus let uz kno wut he's seezin.

Sneezing?

[IAmCountryMusic]

this is going to be so awesome

[bikescene]

your shows in your sig are retarded. i like how you think you can have your graduation, and go to two different shows in two different venues in one night

everyone knows its super cool to put every single show you're going to in your signature so everyone will feel jealous that theyre not going to as many as you, plus its obvious that people you've never met totally totally care and think you're awesome for seeing so many bands, i mean DUH... ;)

but anyway, that guy's made it pretty easy for anyone who's trying to kill him, they'll know exactly where to go.

[IAmCountryMusic]

going to shows is a complete waste of time

[justanact]

just because mtv news reported it, doesn't mean they have any affiliation with it.

[Nigel]

sometime ago it was Mr.Tate (Not sure) that posted an e-mail he got, about a boy writing something similar about an Emo boy, having super powers. maybe it's that same kid, he took it a step further now then just a joke
anyone else remember?

[Manbotisdead]

This is why I started listening to shitty music no one likes. No I just grew out of the whole emo.

[MayoDeftinwolf]

What you listen to is not emo music dude .. Fall Out Boy? Pop-punk.


Exactly .. AND THEY HAVE IT ALL WRONG.


look i still dont see why you cant just acknowledge these current bands alongside the original pioneers of emo. yea its changed a bit but like...thats like saying "absolutepunk.net' is an incredibly stupid name for this site because half the bands advertised don't really embody the punk spirit in any way

i am sorry, but emo is really not something that should be as marketed as it is. Really the whole movement helped me get through my youth, providing a personal support system as i made my way through the trials of high school. The music that this comic is using as its inspiration means something more to certain people. To see it have a price tag attached to it ($30 dollar Fall Out Boy Club?) just rips apart any personal meaning the music had to the kids that really know what that stuff means. It disrespects the entire emo culture, not to mention the meaning of music as a whole. Music is something that comes from the heart not a price tag.
i def agree with that gay ass fall out boy fan club. I mean i love FOB,,,but pay 30$ to be a fan. What the fuck...corporate bullshit!

[buysoap]

this just looks and sounds stupid. what sucks is it comes from slave labor graphics which have put out a lot of good stuff like johnny the homicidal maniac..... so we go from johnny to.. emo boy? fuck that.

[AShannon04]

its looks like "emo" is the new word for "loser"

[Nigel]

hahah exactly
that made me laugh

[FrancesdaMute]

emo is such a good name for a genre. so totally awesome.

"We are really tired of those labels and questions," says guitarist, co-founder and producer Rodriguez-Lopez. "Concept album? How can any huge project that takes up most of your life for a year not have a concept? Prog? How can any innovative, forward-thinking art or music not be progressive? It reminds me of when I first heard the label "Emo," which was the most ridiculous label ever. How can anything you put your heart and soul into not be emotional?" -Omar from Volta on labels. Preach the fuck on.

[ethicka]

In some respects it's about time... but I think the intent is wrong. This is about commodifying the most intelligent fan of all: the emo fan. Sensitive people, not afraid of true emotions.

Then again, emo doesn't really exist because... well, we don't want it to go the way of that other genre... oh, yeah.

Grunge.

[Sureshot182]

this is on the topic of the comic...stupid, wow. i agree, way to categorize, stereotype and most likely misuse the word.

[falloutdrea19]

hahah oh dear god

[MayoDeftinwolf]

Punk is a very flexible term dude, ease off.


i know. i dont really really feel that way about the name of this site or anything. it was jsut na example

but anyway im tired of being blasted in genre-battles with people. and also, the comic is stupid, but it doesnt look like anyone here actually thinks its a great idea so..yea, whatever.

[thecovertcareer]

Not completely true. Supposedly, its origins lie in a mid-80's interview with Ian MacKaye who was asked to try and describe the new movement his band (Fugazi) as well as others were founding at the time.

Dashboard Confessional is not an emo band.

Unfortunately, they are, but that's likely attributed to how nü-emo isn't as widely recognized as nü-metal yet.

why do people always bring up JTHM when talking about Slave Labour? JTHM isn't even that great in my opinion; I mean sure it's funny but Lenore is so much funnier.

[Spicoli hey bud]

It's funny that MTV has never played a single emo band

[UrNameInStarss]

when i first read the post on the home page i was like WTF?! here goes mtv fucking sometihng over again and trying to drain evey last cent out of sometihng they already killed and trying to sell it to out 12 year old sisters.

but then i read it- and its actually kinda funny. they got the wrong idea of what emo is- but still none the less funny.

[Manbotisdead]

It's funny that MTV has never played a single emo band
That depends on your def. of emo, if you like most people think TBS is emo, then you are wrong. They play alot of those sorts of bands these days.

Abandon life? Hardly. It's pretty expensive to travel the world .. my take is that he has some pretty nice bank. Don't be jealous.

[logantogovcentr]

this is awesome.

you guys should stop being such pussies and stop fighting over what emo is. categorization is not a neccessity in music. i'm sure you guys think that it is, but it isn't. so, quit being little fucking dickheads and stick to the fact that everything is music, and it doesn't need to fall into a certain deliniation to be listenable.

and let MTV do whatever they want. If you don't like it, don't fucking turn the channel on. They aren't exploiting "emo" or anything, because since MTV doesn't "know what emo is", then it doesn't make a fucking difference. everyone should embrace their ability to end their life with a pillow.

The End.

[kittypants]

good. maybe now that emo has come full circle on mtv there won't be anymore emo kids.

my little sister called my jack johnson cd "emo"................................... yeah

this is a terribly unfunny idea.

[idlewillkill]

i heard lance bass was at bamboozle...supposedly he performed with his old band further seems forever...played alot of songs off of the first album.

[mikehasnolife]

i didn't expect this to cause much controversy, but allow me to step in.

steve's an incredibly good friend of mine, and i've read older versions of this comic, as well as samples of the new ones. it doesn't completely mock the emo genre, it's more of an undertone that helps the story along. it's not like he spends every page saying "BLACK GLASSES LOL! *CRIES*".

mtv hasn't influenced this comic at all and it's not completely stereotyping the emo genre. i wasn't that crazy about the idea at first either, but steve has a great sense of humor and i ended up loving it.

/my two cents.

[StillPickedLast]

this is awsome i would watch this show for sure. i hope he wears his sisters pants and t shirts he wore when he was 8. cuz that is the ultimate defintion of emo. cry and cut me please

steve's an incredibly good friend of mine, and i've read older versions of this comic, as well as samples of the new ones. it doesn't completely mock the emo genre, it's more of an undertone that helps the story along. it's not like he spends every page saying "BLACK GLASSES LOL! *CRIES*".

mtv hasn't influenced this comic at all and it's not completely stereotyping the emo genre. i wasn't that crazy about the idea at first either, but steve has a great sense of humor and i ended up loving it.

/my two cents.

and now for my two cents
first off, the kid doesnt even have a name, he is Emo Boy, what the fuck?
this is obviously complete shit
but good for a late night laugh

it's funnier that way. but clearly you're ignorant, so it's useless trying to argue any points further.
