Scott Allie, editor

Scott Allie, editor

Badass Umbrella Academy editor, Scott Allie, gives us the latest going-ons in the Umbrella Academy world.

First he reminds us that the first issue of the second series, Dallas #1, is 32 pages of advertisement-free Gabriel Ba comic book art. Wow!

According to Allie, Gerard Way has just finished the script for Dallas #4, Ba is almost done with issue 3 (Allie says it has some of the weirdest stuff he’s seen), and Ba has one cover left for this series.

He also recommends getting the Umbrella Academy toys. You can read the complete letter on the UA Zone.

The Black Umbrella?

Gerard Way, NME Magazine

Gerard Way, NME Magazine

Sir Gerard Way of New Jersey revealed another Black Parade/Umbrella Academy connection. Well, sort of.

In this month’s issue of NME Magazine, The Way Man explains what he’s currently working on. Nothing new to report: new My Chemical Romance album, Umbrella Academy movie, and Dallas. However, he does give us a little something new. The Gee-man is quoted saying,

“Elements of the original Umbrella Academy pitch ended up being part of ‘The Black Parade’ in weird ways that people would never know.”

Weird ways people would never know? Oh my! Gerard Way is a very talented writer, artist and musician and he has often said that his works often influence each other. I guess we’ll be seeing him and the Chem crew sporting Umbrella Academy T-shirts and umbrellas on their next tour. What do you think? Let us know in the comments below:

The Umbrella Academy Book and Figure Set

4″ tall figure in 2-sided window box with 152-page hardcover book $24.99

For the Book and Figure Set, we have chosen Vanya, AKA The White Violin. She’s a standout character in the series, defying her family and showing a vindictive, violent streak.

A 5″ x 7.5″ hardcover of the trade paperback has been created for this set, featuring original Gabriel Ba cover art.

This action figure and book set is absolutely beautiful. There is nothing else to say. Really? Well, if you want to say something. Please leave a comment below or click here to order.
