The story follows, 7 and another 36 babies were born on the same day, same time, and their mothers were not pregnant.

After hearing this, a billionaire scientist Sir Reginald Hargreeves, becomes curious and adopts as many of those kids as he could, and got seven of them. Each kid had a unique set of abilities, therefore, Reginald trains them to form a superhero group and names them as an Umbrella Academy.

But the siblings ended up parting their ways, they haven’t seen each other for several years, and later get united for Reginald’s funeral. Then they try to stop the apocalypse, which turns out to be triggered by their powerless sister, Vanya.

The Sparrow Academy is just like the Umbrella Academy, which was adopted by the Reginald. Though in similar conditions, the Umbrella Academy were lucky because they were having Pogo and Grace, unlike them, Sparrow Academy was raised only by the Reginald.

Keeping this in mind, it is understandable, Ben is far from the one the Hargreeves knew, and also was rude to the team of the strangers. Because of their different upbringing, they were different from Umbrellas but no bad guys.

Villains of The Umbrella Academy Season 3

the comic books of the Umbrella academy had weird and colorful villains, but the series is coming with a new twist making them villains, and of course, they would more like the unintentional kind of villains.

As we know the same things happen and Hargreeves tries to fix the problem similarly and looks into fixing the timeline, resulting in the biggest consequence, the destruction of The Sparrow Academy.

The tea later realizes that at that point all they can do is making sure that the timeline is not affected, but Umbrella members are not easy targets to deal with.

Hargreaves’ selfishness and impulsiveness will play against in the 3^rd season, hence, instead of being the team who helps others, they would be the ones responsible for more catastrophes.
