The Umbrella Academy season 3 has returned to our screens for a third season on Netflix<\/a>, as the Hargreeves siblings find themselves in another alternate timeline and preparing to do battle with some new foes.<\/p>\n

But this time they\u2019re faced with adversaries they never anticipated: their resurrected father, Sir Reginald Hargreeves (Colm Feore), and themselves. Well, sort of.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re talking about the Sparrow Academy: an alternate group of Hargreeves children, including a very-much-alive Ben \u2013 as opposed to the ghostly form that follows Klaus around everywhere \u2013 who audiences first got a glimpse of at the end of season 2.<\/p>\n

Though not quite alternate versions of the unruly Umbrellas, the well-oiled Sparrow Academy do represent what life could have been like had a number of variables been different, and if Ben (Justin H Min) hadn\u2019t died when he was younger, ripping apart the team.<\/p>\n

New season 3<\/a> cast member Genesis Rodriguez, who plays Sloane Hargreeves, recently what fans need to know about the Sparrows, saying: \u201cThe Sparrow Academy is a completely different family. Um, equally as dysfunctional. But they really are crime fighters. They\u2019re organised, they have trained their entire lives. And they\u2019ve dedicated their lives to stopping crime. And they\u2019re kind of a big deal.\u201d<\/p>\n

Wondering who would win in a showdown between individual members of each group? Read on for everything you need to know about the Sparrow Academy team\u2019s powers.<\/p>\n

Alternatively, why\u00a0not get reacquainted with The Umbrella Academy gang\u2019s powers<\/a> before diving into season 3<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Sparrows\u2019 powers in The Umbrella Academy season 3<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Number One (Marcus) \u2013 super strength<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Played by Justin Cornwall, Marcus, or Number One for the Sparrows appears to have similar powers to Luther, though prior to the supernatural transformation that turned him from the neck down into a human\/ ape hybrid.<\/p>\n

Number Two (Ben) \u2013 can summon tentacles<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\"""\"<\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/picture><\/div>

Ben\u2019s (Justin Min) powers are the same as they were in the previous universe; he can push out massive tentacles from another dimension from his torso.<\/p>

Ben was Hargreeves\u2019 Number Six as a member of The Umbrella Academy. Now, he\u2019s Number Two for the Sparrows, meaning he\u2019s likely to be more of a threat.<\/p>\n

Number Three (Feinsteins) \u2013 can manifest birds<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Played by Britne Oldford, The Sparrow\u2019s Number Three is able to summon and create birds from within her body. After that, she can control them, see through their eyes (she doesn\u2019t have her own) and harness the creatures as weapons.<\/p>\n

Number Four (Alphonso) \u2013 human voodoo<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\"""\"<\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/picture><\/div>

Alphonso (Jake Epstein) is able to inflict any injuries he sustains upon his opponent. A human voodoo doll, if you like. In episode 1, he tricks Allison into hitting him in the face, only for her to feel the effect of the punch.<\/p>\n

Number Five (Sloane) \u2013 gravity control<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Sloane (Genesis Rodriguez) holds the power to control gravity; she can move things and make herself and others fly.<\/p>\n

Number Six (Jayme) \u2013 can spit psychedelic venom<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Portrayed by Cazzie David, Jayme has one of the more unpleasant powers of the Sparrows. She is able to spit psychedelic venom from her mouth that shows convincing illusions to her foes. As Netflix officially describes it, the effects of the venom \u201csends her targets into their heads and out of the fight\u201d.<\/p>\n

Number Seven (Christopher) aka Existential Dread-Inducing Psykronium Cube<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\"""\"<\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/picture><\/div>

Yes, Chris is actually a floating cube for some reason, and has energy-based powers including paralysing rays and telekinesis. He can also reshape his cube body into some other shapes for specific purposes.<\/p>\n
