Zuko's Story, plus Korra Fanart
Jul. 23rd, 2010 02:13 pm Firstly, 'Zuko's Story' is a comic that covers the life of Zuko from just after his father, the Fire Lord, disfigured him, right up to when he saw the beam of light that signalled Aang's reanimation.
It's a good read, with the same characterisation as the series and pretty consistantly good art through the story. Zuko and Iroh are both the designs from the movie due to it being a tie-in, but everyone else looks the same as they did in the show, plus a lot of the dialogue slots into place with the cartoon's flashbacks. For example, when Zuko and Iroh were at the Western Air temple.
Here's a bit from the beginning,
13 pages from 144













I recommend it anyway, if only because it builds on Zuko's backstory some more, which is nice. Like where he got the idea for the Blue Spirit from.
And now, Korra fanart!
...Yeah, it's only been announced a few days ago, but not there's tons of the stuff.

Well, I'm psyched about the new show, how about everyone else?

'Great warrior', said the Divine Spirit, 'I have watched the humans from above for longer than even I can recall, yet never have I seen a man as great and noble as you. Come with me to my grand castle made from stardust and moonlight, and rule the heavens forever as my husband.'"
"And Sokka, honest and straightforward to the end, looked deep into the Divine Spirits eyes and replied, 'Fair spirit, you are the most beautiful maiden that I have ever set eyes upon, yet I cannot take you as my wife, and live with you in the heavens in peace, for my head lives only for the rush of combat, and my heart belongs only to the warrior maiden, Suki.'"
"And the Moon Spirit was heartbroken at the warriors' pronouncement, yet could not bring herself to hate Sokka, for his pure, strong soul was what she so dearly loved to begin with. Instead, she returned to her palace in the heavens to watch over him, but not before leaving Sokka a symbol of her favor and eternal love; his legendary sword, that could cut any substance, with a blade as black as the dark side of the moon."
"Sokka would use this sword to fell the dread airships of the Phoenix King, boldly leaping from ship to ship, cleaving each one in half with a single mighty swing."
