Hotel Oblivion is the most super-hero-y out of all of the umbrella academy series but it's also (in my opinion) the best. Unlike Dallas, the story feels more thought-out with a set-up and pay-off to multiple plotpoints. Yes, it is more cheesy than the previous two volumes, but it's nice to actually see the characters evolve and change, and it was a welcome change to Dallas, which had a very bleak end. This makes me excited for any follow up volumes!!
