When a worldwide event causes forty-seven women who aren't pregnant to give birth, millionaire Reginald Hargreeves adopts seven of these children to form The Umbrella Academy. Believing they have the power to save the world, he trains them to master their abilities, and at the age of ten, they save the world from zombie-robot, Gustave Eiffel. Years later, the squabbling siblings are forced to reunite following the death of Hargreeves, and find themselves called upon to save the world again. Recently made into a hit Netflix series - the first season of which was Netflix's most watched show of 2019 - The Umbrella Academy is a dark and atmospheric tale of dysfunctional superheroes in an alternate world of time travel and mind control. This volume brings together issues 1-6 of The Apocalypse Suite, as well as short stories and a sketchbook section featuring the drawings of Gabriel Ba and Gerard Way.
