The Umbrella Academy is returning to comics in July with its first full series in six years. As revealed by Variety yesterday, The Umbrella Academy: Plan B is the fourth full run of the hit book and will reunite the original creative team of co-writers Gerard Way and Gabriel Bá, with Bá also illustrating the comic which will be colored by Dave Stewart and lettered by Nate Piekos.
"After the mass release of The City's greatest foes and the chaos that followed in Hotel Oblivion, the Umbrella Academy faces their most fearsome challenge to date – their other brothers and sisters," reads the official synopsis for the new book. "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."
