About this ebook

The New York Times bestselling comics series that was the inspiration for The Umbrella Academy on Netflix, now on Season 3!

The team is despondent following the near apocalypse created by one of their own and the death of their beloved mentor Pogo. So it's a great time for another catastrophic event to rouse the team into action. Trouble is—each member of the team is distracted by some very real problems of their own. The White Violin is bedridden due to an unfortunate blow to the head. Rumor has lost her voice—the source of her power. Spaceboy has eaten himself into a near-catatonic state, while Number Five dives into some shady dealings at the dog track and the Kraken starts looking at his littlest brother as the key to unraveling a mysterious series of massacres…all leading to a blood-drenched face-off with maniacal assassins, and a plot to kill JFK!

Ratings and reviews

I love Gerard way he's so amazing and omg just no words to describe his amazing talent😊👍

It's not as good as volume one and it gets attacked infusing it time also but ultimately the characters and story are pretty solid.

I really like the concept and the art!!! Gerard and the other writers/artists did a fantabulous job...
