    A harrowing and action-filled study of ambition, futility, and violence—The Umbrella Academy: Plan B is what happens when those far more powerful tell us what we need.

    The award-winning and best-selling superhero comics series by Gerard Way (The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys, Paranoid Gardens) and Gabriel Bá (Two Brothers, Casanova) returns stranger than ever, featuring a brand-new cast of supervillains that share origins with the Umbrella Academy.

    After the mass release of The City's greatest foes and the chaos that followed in Hotel Oblivion, the Umbrella Academy face their most fearsome challenge to date—their other brothers and sisters.

    Known only as The Sparrows, they share a different connection to Sir Reginald Hargreeves and Mom. No one knows how to hurt each other more than family, and this powerful, ruthless brood will spare no brutality in favor of their sole objective—control, and the obedient glare that comes with it.

    Collects The Umbrella Academy: Plan B #1–#6.
