Fans of The Séance, say ‘Hello’ to one of the better things to come out of 2020 — a spinoff series dedicated to the Umbrella Academy’s enigmatic Number Four, Klaus Hargreeves, from The Umbrella Academy and Dark Horse Comics, You Look Like Death.
Written by Gerard Way and Shaun Simon (TheTrue Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys), featuring art by I.N.J. Culbard, lettering from Nate Piekos, and a cover by The Umbrella Academy‘s Gabriel Bá, it follows an 18-year-old Klaus Hargreeves after being kicked out of the Umbrella Academy with no cash coming in from dear old dad. After a little drug-fueled scuffle with one of the vampire Mr. Shivers’ associates — and realizing that his siblings won’t be coming to his rescue this time — he takes off to the one place he knows he’ll shine: Hollywood.
You Look Like Death is an absolute gem, highlighting the sharp wit and narcissism fans have come to love from the levitating medium from the pages of the comics to Robert Sheehan’s charismatic performance in the hit TV series on Netflix. The art is captivating and the writing just brings Klaus to life in a whole new delightful way.
You can purchase the first of the six issue series digitally or print, with the print version having two variant cover options from I.N.J. Culbard and Leo Romero. The site will also allow you to preorder issues two and three, with their respective variants as well, set to release on October 21, 2020 and November 18, 2020.

Gerard Way took to Instagram to celebrate the release of the first ever Umbrella Academy miniseries/origin story, and fans should get excited because it looks like more of our beloved, chaotic crew may be getting their own spinoffs as well. (Will we finally learn what happened to Ben?)
