The Umbrella Academy was a group formed by Sir Reginald Hargreeves. It is comprised of seven of the babies born to forty-three women who gave birth simultaneously without explanation in 1989. The group frequently uses time travel to stop the impending apocalypse, and fights the time moderation organization known as the Temps Commission. Their last attempt to save humanity by altering the timeline resulted in the wiping of their formation and the creation of the Sparrow Academy.
