Welcome to The Nerd Herd Comic Book Club!

The Umbrella Academy: Vol 1 Apocalypse Suite
Publisher: Dark Horse Comics
Year: 2007
Writer: Gerard Way
Artist: Gabriel Ba
Reading Order: Umbrella Academy #1-6
"In an inexplicable worldwide event, forty-seven extraordinary children were spontaneously born to women who'd previously shown no signs of pregnancy. Millionaire inventor Reginald Hargreeves adopted seven of the children; when asked why, his only explanation was, "To save the world."
These seven children form the Umbrella Academy, a dysfunctional family of superheroes with bizarre powers. Their first adventure at the age of ten pits them against an erratic and deadly Eiffel Tower, piloted by the fearsome zombie-robot Gustave Eiffel. Nearly a decade later, the team disbands, but when Hargreeves unexpectedly dies, these disgruntled siblings reunite just in time to save the world once again."
