The Umbrella Academy is based on the comic series of the same name by Gerard Way and Gabriel Bá, who also created the comic for the Netflix series, Locke and Key.
The first season of the series premiered on Netflix in February 2019, and it was another big hit for the streaming network.
The series tells the story of seven children with superpowers who are adopted by a billionaire. Together, they form The Umbrella Academy, a superhero force. The show catches up with these characters as adults after they haven’t spoken in years.
Fans had a long wait until The Umbrella Academy season 2 was added to Netflix. The second season just premiered in July 2020, and it was really good.
Now, we’re just waiting for The Umbrella Academy season 3! There’s probably going to be another big gap between seasons of the Netflix show, though.
