The Umbrella Academy Library Edition Volume 1: Apocalypse Suite (Oversized Hardcover)

Dive into the complete comic masterpiece that inspired the hit Netflix original live-action series with The Umbrella Academy Library Edition Volume 1: Apocalypse Suite. Published by Dark Horse Comics, this premium deluxe oversized hardcover anthology compiles the entire award-winning first comic book series in a single luxury archival collection.

Experience an inexplicable worldwide phenomenon. When forty-three extraordinary children are spontaneously born to unrelated women who showed no prior signs of pregnancy, eccentric eccentric millionaire inventor Sir Reginald Hargreeves adopts seven of them. His only explanation? "To save the world." These seven gifted children form The Umbrella Academy—a deeply dysfunctional family of superheroes endowed with bizarre, reality-bending powers. Nearly a decade after their historic first mission, the estranged team disbands. However, when Hargreeves unexpectedly dies, the disgruntled siblings must reluctantly reunite just in time to thwart an apocalyptic global threat.

Masterfully written by My Chemical Romance frontman Gerard Way and spectacularly illustrated by Eisner Award-winning artist Gabriel Bá, this premium volume is a cornerstone piece of modern comic book history. This comprehensive Library Edition features the complete main storyline alongside rare, essential short stories like "Mon Dieu!" and "But the Past Ain't Through with You." Collectors will also love the massive, expanded 50-page sketchbook section packed with raw behind-the-scenes artwork, character designs, and commentary from Gerard Way, Gabriel Bá, James Jean, and designer Tony Ong. Built to look stunning on any high-end collector's bookshelf, it features oversized pages, heavy matte paper stock, and an incredibly durable cloth-bound hardcover spine.
