If you’re familiar with the name Gerard Way, it’s probably because you’ve heard of his band, My Chemical Romance, but did you know he’s also an award-winning comic book author?
Along with artist Gabriel Ba, Way has created The Umbrella Academy, a series about 7 misfit superheroes who were adopted and raised by a mysterious millionaire, resulting in a seriously dysfunctional family that splits their time between arguing with each other and saving the world.
Whether they’re fighting an Eiffel Tower come to life or traveling through time to the JFK assassination, this series is funny, bloody, and suspenseful. Check out the first two volumes today!
To order the Umbrella Academy Vol. 1 – Apocalypse Suite or Vol. 2 - Dallas, call the library at 330.643.9067, chat with a librarian using the Meebo box in the side bar, or stop by your local Akron-Summit County Public Library branch!
