The Umbrella Academy - Plan B #2
It's a brave new world. The Umbrella Academy has fallen with its members indecisive and scattering while the Sparrows have taken center stage forcing a fascist new regime in place even the United States Government is too afraid to oppose. Diego continues in his hero role, although Pogo notes criminals are being taken down faster than the system can hold them (rather than be murdered by Earth's new heroes). And Five has decided it's time to start fighting back foreshadowing a showdown (although not giving any clues as to why it would end any differently than the Academy getting wiped out by the Sparrows in their first encounter).
Meanwhile, Vanya struggles to fit in with her new family who is more sociopathic than her old one. I think it's fair to reason Sir Reginald Hargreeves wasn't a great father figure. Might Vanya reconsider her allegiances? Time will tell. Oh, also, some Cthulhu-looking demon from beyond the realm appears just about ready to make its presence known.
