The Avatar series is one of my favorite animated series of all time. If you doubt me, take a good look at my blog ‘avatar’, which I’ve had since I first signed up for Cannonball Read; maybe a bit familiar, even if a little bit cropped? So, of course, I’m a little excited to hear there will be a new installment to the series soon; pity it’s still quite a while away. And while I’ve tried the comics/graphic novels, they’re little less mature than I […]

If you like(d) Avatar the Last Airbender the television series (not that “movie we don’t name” or the blue people), you might want their story to continue since there are only so many times you can rewatch the Avatar and his friends save the world. And you can do that with the graphic novels that various authors, illustrators and creators have made. You can pick up where our gang of benders and friends left off. Some will allow you to continue their stories, add that […]

Once upon a time, there was a girl who had two friends into a show called, The Dragon Prince. They had seen all but one season but knew this girl would love it as much as they did. And she did. A lot. (In fact, so much that she would introduce the show to her dad; who binged season three and then excitedly asked when season four was. But she had to deal with his sad, puppy eyes when she informed him that it was […]

This is a media-tie in novel, but it’s also just a good fantasy novel.

This was so good! I hope there are ten more of them. I watched Avatar: The Last Airbender when it was on Netflix the first time, around 2010 or so, and fell in love with it. I rewatched it probably three times in the next couple years, and then one day it was gone from Netflix. This was sad. So I had to buy the DVDs. Since then, about once a year I just get this craving to return to this world and rewatch, and I’ve […]

Because I want the best for you, here’s the short version: scroll to the bottom of this review and click the link to buy it. Buy a copy for everyone you know who is a fan of Avatar: The Last Airbender. (If you have friends who are not fans, have you shared the good news of the Avatar with them?) F.C. Yee teams up with Michael Dante DiMartino (one of the creators of ATLA) to tell the story of Kyoshi, the most recent Earthbending Avatar […]

I just really miss Legend of Korra. That is my main takeaway from reading this three-part comic series over the last year. I just did a rewatch of Avatar the Last Airbender and Korra at the beginning of the year, but I might have to do another one. It’s just so good. I think I might have also read this wrong. I read each issue as they came out, and looooved the first one. But the second two, less so. It had been months since I read the preceding issues, and […]
