Season 1 has been successfully binged and we have numerous questions (Picture: Netflix)

***Warning: Major Spoilers Ahead***

The Umbrella Academy has been keeping us on our toes all weekend thanks to its killer soundtrack and tense story.

Now the finale has come crashing down on us (quite literally), we’re making like Klaus and are dying for our next fix.

But with so many unanswered questions, we’re already excited at the thought of everything to come. Here are just some of the things we want to know if (when) the show returns…

Where the hell did The Umbrella Academy go?

In the season finale, Number Five pushed his powers to the limits in order to transport himself, and his five live siblings, back in time and away from the Apocalypse.



The thing is, we know Five’s powers aren’t exactly the most reliable at the best of times when it comes to time travel, so who knows where they ended up.

Will they be forced to relive their own timelines again, or will they end up somewhere completely new?

On top of that, will their newly-reunited bond be broken completely in seconds once they realise Vanya killed off Pogo? (RIP Pogo, you deserved better.)

Will Number Five ever be given a name? (Picture: Netflix)

Will Number Five ever get a name?

Sir Reginald Hargreeves is a divisive character at the best of times, buying up the seven kids of the Umbrella Academy and turning them into superheroes.

But of all the horrid things he did (and there were LOADS of them), one of the meanest was always referring to the seven by numbers, and never names.

Luther, Diego, Allison, Ben, Vanya and Klaus all eventually got their own names, but Five – presumably because he disappeared before he could get one, remains just a number.

It’s been fifty odd years, at least in his timeline, it’s probably time he’s given a name.

Vanya had no idea of what she was able to do (Picture: Netflix)

How will Vanya control her powers?

Vanya’s powers were so strong that Reginald recruited Allison to make her forget that she even had them, then subdued them for years with medication.

Now that she’s discovered her own truth, she literally brought about the end of the world with the use of a violin – and even her six super-siblings were barely able to stop her.

The last we saw of her, she was collapsed in Luther’s arms, and is yet to come around long enough to understand what she’s done.

Will she be able to find a way to keep a lid on it all once again? Or now that Pandora’s Box has been opened, so to speak, is it only a matter of time before she blows again.

Ben has been keeping in close contact with Klaus thanks to the Seance’s abilities (Picture: Netflix)

How did Ben die?

Over the course of the season, it becomes obvious that several members of the Academy feel guilty regarding their brother’s death.

None more so than Klaus, who gets the added bonus of being able to see and speak to him due to his seance abilities.



But how exactly, did the Umbrella Academy’s Number Six die in the first place? Is Klaus to blame for his death?

And if they can help us understand that, is there a way to save him from his fate?

Why is Ben aging after dying?

One major thing that can’t be ignored regarding Ben is, besides having the weirdest Octopus abilities that are pretty dang lethal, is that he’s ya know…dead.

We’ve seen the statue – he was just a boy when he died, and yet there he is, interacting with Klaus as a fully grown man.

So what gives? Surely there’s more to it than meets the eye.

Is this the last we’ve seen of Cha-Cha and Hazel?(Picture: Netflix)

Is this the last we’ve seen of Cha-Cha and Hazel?

They might be the bad guys in this situation, but we have to be honest, we really, really loved Cha-Cha and Hazel.

But let’s just say the end of the series…didn’t leave much room for their possible return.

Though now that they’re travelling through time and space, anything can happen – including the opportunity to run into younger versions of the characters.

They could even have somehow found their way to safety in another timeline.

Seeing as Number Five is a 45-year-old trapped in a pre-teen body while the rest of his family members are in their 30s…it’s not impossible.

Will Luther and Allison get together?

There’s clearly something going on between Luther and Allison, though neither have ever acted on their feelings.

Whatever they plan to do, it’s going to be complicated, seeing as they’ve been raised practically siblings.

But with Allison’s divorce looming and Luther fresh from his drug-fuelled dalliance with a furry-lover, plus the end of the world, they’re united now more than ever.

This means they can go one of two ways – give in to their feelings and become a couple, or keep their feelings buried for the sake of the family unit.

(Pro tip though, guys: everyone already knows you’re in love so we’re pretty sure they can get over it.)

The Umbrella Academy season 1 is available now on Netflix.
