New ‘The Umbrella Academy’ Comic Focused on The Sparrows Launching in June From Gerard Way, Gabriel Bá (EXCLUSIVE)

In regards to how storylines from the Netflix adaptation could come into play in the “Plan B” comic, which focuses on The Sparrows, which were featured in the TV series, Bá said: “Just as it happened with every season of the show, they took elements from our original story and worked it out into telling it their way.
