  Fun Fact: At the time of writing Umbrella Academy, Gerard saw nothing wrong with the sibling romances, using the argument of them not being blood related as it being ok. He later looked back at that thought process and said something along the lines of "i was a fucking idiot"

  Man, I hope for a proper Umbrella Academy adaptation in form of The Animated Series.

  Tbh the first two seasons were fire, then it kinda felt like they were just throwing darts at a wall

  I actually think the Sparrows work great as a cliffhanger and enemy. They built as the "perfect" Umbrella Academy, and are therefore more "normal": They all wear the same uniform that is clearly inspired by the X-Men's original uniform, which plays of the Doom Patrol/X-Men link, and can quickly handle the Umbrella's mistakes. Yet there's still clearly trouble within the group, just more hidden.

  Umbrella academy would work as a animated series then live action adaptation in my opinion

  I genuinely had no idea Umbrella Academy was linked to MCR

  I had an ex who really liked UE so I gave it a shot because I love comics and was glad to be dating someone who liked a comic. That being said, the story was very wandering and confused but the art was awesome.

  Since you’re talking about Gerard’s stuff should totally talk about the Young Animal imprint it was honestly such an interesting time for DC

  I’m a die hard MCR fan but I’ve always had a ‘oh that’s nice’ attitude to Gerard’s comics, which it feels horrible to say but, Gerard is great at designing really cool visually striking character designs and concepts for worlds, never been great at dialogue or plot, Rock Opera is the perfect medium for him, comics (at least as a writer) aren’t

  FINALLY! An in-depth analysis on the Umbrella Academy comic<br><br>Don&apos;t get me wrong I love the show but I don&apos;t really like the fact that everyone entirely forgot about the comic when the show came out, the comic is bloody brilliant as well
