The Umbrella Academy Season 2: Ranking EVERY Character From Worst To Best
6. Diego
Diego may just be the coolest of the Umbrella Academy siblings, but there's always been so much more to him than that. Though the first season didn't necessarily capitalise on what was below the surface of the vigilante, it did feature some really meaningful moments - particularly in regards to his relationship with his father and his connection to his mother Grace.
Both of those plot threads played into the second season in a huge way as the writers wasted little time in using his new environment (an asylum in the 1960s) to delve into his underlying resentment towards Reginald Hargreeves because of the way he treated him as well as his undying attempt to prove himself to him.
His relationship with Lila also proved to be one of the season's most engaging arcs as he found himself falling for her (in spite of his best attempts not to) - and it presented both with plenty of opportunities for that badassery that Diego is renowned for.
