The Umbrella Academy
review 1: Shortly after finishing Vol. 1 of Umbrella Academy I went into a sad withdrawal not having the second volume at the ready. So naturally when I finally had it in my hands I couldn't stop myself from continuing the story. Once again I was taken into an amazingly detailed world and posed the question...What role did the Umbrella Academy have during the assassination of JFK. (Mind blow). Well yes, I would like to know this please tell me Gerard, and tell me he did. It's still an absolute toss up for me if I enjoyed Vol. 1 or Vol. 2 more but one thing is for sure I couldn't put either of them down despite trying to pace myself since Vol. 3 is just now being worked on after a hiatus. I now have to patiently play the waiting game with everyone else for more Umbrella Academy and I... more couldn't be more excited.
review 2: BLOOD! BLOOD! BLOOOOOD!That's basically the whole of this book (which I carried around in my school bag for four months, may I add). And I LOVE it.In the second instalment of the Umbrella Academy series, you return to the team in a state of... disarray, to put it lightly. Vanya is left paralysed from the first volume, Spaceboy is left lazy and un-motivated, and The Seance is always wigged out on... something. Number 0.05 is like the punk your parents always warned you about, except he's kind of adorable, behind all the guts and gore. The rest of the team are generally ambling around on a tight-rope. I didn't find them that memorable, to be honest.Hazel and Cha-Cha are the perfect antagonists, lending the comic an oddly threatening vibe. You're left feeling as if you're unsure you should be laughing, or cowering in the fear that they might saw off your head. Loveable indeed, if I may say so myself.And yeah - I must admit, the short comic at the end made me chuckle (punks??!). A must-read for new readers of comic books!! less

Very entertaining read. Time travel, gun play and God in a cowboy hat. Need I say more?

This was as brilliant a masterpiece as the first volume — maybe even better.

This is easily one of the best books I've ever read.
