When Evil Rains…The Umbrella Academy
How many times have I watched the trailer for The Umbrella Academy? I think the honest answer might be a little bit embarrassing. We’ll just say since its release just under 48 hours ago I’ve watched it about ten times. To truly explain the importance of this comic book in my life would be a long story, so let me just say that if it were not for Gerard Way, Gabriel Ba, Scott Allie and this silly little comic book, I would never have gotten this writing gig.
The fact that the television show is actually happening, 11 years after the release of Apocalypse Suite mind you, just genuinely blows my mind. I have been waiting for this show for as long as I can remember. There were always rumors about a possibility of adapting this comic to a show and it actually freaking happened. Seems like Rumor had it right 😉
