I'm not even going to try to outline this multi-Eisner-awarded mindboggling masterpiece: Either you already know it, or you do not, in which case you ought to download and devour it, rather than waste time with a dessicated description of it!

So, with no further ado, here's THE UMBRELLA ACADEMY, eloquently exhibiting

   The Seance .... "Spooky power! Talking to dead people and floating. But ghosts 
                    don't exist?! Dracula!"
   The Kraken .... "Rugged-looking underwater breathing! So tough and needs a 
                    shave! (Be care of eye!) Good thing he is handsome and 
                    excellent fighter."
   The Rumor ..... "Making falsehood come true is the power. Interesting costume 
                    is special love dating. When will she lie again? I think next 
                    time... Make it fantastic!"
   The Horror .... "Crazy Monsters under his skin - Oh No! A parallel dimension of 
                    unsavory feeling. I count three of them with exciting names. 
                    Impossible to pronounce!"
   Spaceboy ...... "Watch out! Body of Martian Gorilla! Fearless leader of 
                    Umbrella Academy. Strong! Can I share your lasergun! Can't 
                    make him laugh!"
   The Monocle ... "Space alien? Who knows?! Isn't he mean? Smart and wondrous 
                    wealth to run the school!"
