Eventually it’s revealed the second apocalypse will be triggered by Viktor (again), who’s tortured after he’s captured by the FBI; his powers flare and cause him to blow up the FBI office where he’s being held. Kennedy escapes assassination, but the Soviet Union is blamed for the explosion, and World War III breaks out. With nukes.

Ghost Ben is able to enter Viktor’s mind and talk him off the ledge to prevent the building’s destruction, but as a result Kennedy is killed. A furious Reginald outs himself as an interdimensional being (by removing his human face to reveal a decidedly alien visage) to the rest of the Majestic 12. Suspected to be terrorists by the U.S. government, the Umbrella Academy regroups for one last confrontation with the Handler (who is killed) and a renewed chance to return to 2019 using one of the Commission’s time-traveling briefcase. However, the 2019 they portal to is… not their 2019. Reginald is still alive and the Sparrow Academy exists in the Umbrella Academy’s place.
