For more reviews, check out my blog: Craft-CycleSo I made the mistake of reading this one after having watched the first season of the Netflix show, not realizing that the show was based on the first two books (I read the first volume before watching the show). Therefore, I feel that my review may b...
I didn't love this book. I can't tell if it's my fault for waiting so long to read the second trade, or if it's their fault for confusing me.Let's blame Gerard, shall we?
Gerard Way should put Chemical Romance aside and write some more Umbrella Academy. The second surpasses the first one by a long shot. Literally taking out the president. This graphic novel goes down as one of the best.If you like Grant Morrison then you will love this.
If there were six stars, I'd give it to this book. Way continues to deliver with the second volume of Umbrella Academy. The plot becomes way more complex and for a sophomore outing, this is one heck of an achievement. Way packs into six issues what Grant Morrison has trouble doing in fifty with far ...

I loved the first volume of this series, so I was looking forward to reading this one. Following the near apocalypse and all the crazy stuff that happened on Vol.1, we meet the characters as they try to figure out how to move on, when some of the things that happened left scars that will never be ...
Gerard Way is absolutely fucking fearless. He paints himself into corners like it's his job. WHICH IT IS, you guys. It should be all of our jobs. Writer hero status.
