Season two of The Umbrella Academy has scored an impressive 90 per cent among audience members on review aggregate website Rotten Tomatoes.
The consensus on Rotten Tomatoes reads: “Proof that time can heal almost all wounds, The Umbrella Academy‘s exhilarating second season lightens its tonal load without losing its emotional core, giving the super siblings room to grow while doubling down on the time travelling fun.”
The show, which is based on the comic book series by My Chemical Romance frontman and solo artist Gerard Way, returned to Netflix on 31 July.
The Independent’s four-star review reads: “Employing dry Wes Anderson-style humour and end-of-the-world exploits worthy of Heroes, the second season of The Umbrella Academy is just as – if not more – wacky than the first.
