The presentation of all three Parts in one hardcover definitely helps in this regard, as they read much better together as a single book.Īs for the story itself, one major theme presented is colonialism and its effects, which Yang deals with very realistically. Even if Part 2 is basically filler, sub-plot and set-up for Part 3, it still feels part of the greater narrative and the time it takes for characterisation is great to go through and doesn't feel like detracting anything from the main plot.
That much is indeed, true, but the pacing of the story flows amazingly well and doesn't lag too much. All in all, quite a lot goes in this book. YouTube | Blog | Instagram | Twitter | Facebook | Snapchat are several story arcs going throughout the book the main plot is the story of Yu Dao, but there's also the stories of Toph's academy and the Avatar Fan Club, all of which have further events on a more personal level which relate to characters' development. It was so cool to see all of that!Īll in all, I highly recommend this for the Avatar fan!! From artistic choices to plot direction analyses. I also liked that within the 3-volume collection, we get little notes from the creators about why and how they made the comics. It truly felt like the story was being continued opposed to the comics re-interpreting the series. I loved the illustrations and the tone of the comics. Toph begins her metal-bending school, Aang and Katara are lovey-dovey, Sokka is Sokka and Zuko struggles with being a ruler. The Promise contains volumes 1-3 of the Avatar comics, and chronicles what happens right after the series ends. However, I've always been uncertain where to start or what to buy to get into the series. I've been a fan of avatar for about a decade now and have always been curious about the comics for the series.įor those not in the know, the comics pick up where the cartoon's series ends and provides cannon adventures for the Gaang.
