With the Umbrella Academy exiled in the Hotel Oblivion, the Sparrows have taken over the city with a strong hand, making sure everyone knows who's in control now. While Rumor tries to figure out how to beat them, Five and Kraken are done listening to her ideas and prefer going back to the battlefield. Calhoun makes a pitch to the President of the United States on how to deal with this superhero situation, but there's an election coming and they can't rush their next move. Where does Vanya fit in on all this? What about those visions? Who's Deever talking to? Lovely questions with answers coming in every issue.

    I haven't been an avid reader of The Umbrella Academy. I did watch the series which I did enjoy. Picking up with the Plan B series has been a blast so far. I love this world that Gerard and Gabriel have created as well as the deeply flawed characters. Issue 2 really lays a foundation for the story to develop going forward. It's like a chess board and the pieces are being placed in strategic positions. It's very fascinating and the artwork makes it even more captivating. This is one I'll continue to invest my time in!

    The conflict between our titular heroes and the Sparrow Academy in Umbrella Academy: Plan B #2 has some Justice League vs The Authority, but with that signature Gerard Way/Gabriel Ba/Dave Stewart quirkiness. Read Full Review
