8/24/12: Hey guys. Sorry for not posting this sooner, but unless there is news, this site will be on hiatus until October, for the annual Avatar Pumpkin Carving Competition. Hope to see you there!

7/14/12: The San Diego Comic Con was this weekend, and with it a lot of new information for Legend of Korra's Book 2! You can read a detailed report of the panel at Hollywood.com, and see photos of the new characters, designs, and landscapes at Owldee's Tumblr. There is also a four-minute animatic preview of where Team Avatar is now, which can be seen on Youtube. There are also close-up photos of posters featuring the new Team Avatar, as well as adult versions of the old Team Avatar, as seen here.

Some highlights for Book 2: Spirits:

• Book 2 takes place six months after Book 1, and will explore the Spirit World and how the Avatar lineage began. Korra will travel into the Spirit World, and it was hinted that there may be episodes later in the season dedicated to exploring the bigger landscape of the Spirit World.


• Team Avatar will be traveling to the Southern Water Tribe, where there will be a festival. The Southern Air Temple will also be visited.


• All of Team Avatar's clothing have been updated; Korra's shirt has a more Mandarin style, Mako and Bolin get new coats, and Asami's outfit colors have been rearranged. She also has flight gear reminiscent of Amelia Earhart, and Tenzin has a new overcoat.


• Mako has joined the Republic police force, Bolin continues Pro-Bending with a new Fire Ferrets team (no Mako or Korra), and Asami is leading Future Industries. No mention of Lin, and Korra is (assumably) still training on Air Temple Island.


• Korra's expanded family will be introduced, including an uncle (paternal), and twin cousins. We'll learn more about Korra's parents as well.


• Tenzin's brother Bumi will be a regular cast member, as will their sister Kya. Kya is described as a hippie, who has a special relationship with Jinora.


• In the animatic, Korra is attacked by a spirit creature while in the South Pole. In the concept art, Korra will travel through a storm to find a glowing area reminiscent to the iceberg Aang was trapped in, which is related to Korra's spiritual journey.

It was also recently announced that The Legend of Korra was picked up for 26 more episodes, bringing the total to 52! The Season/Book set-up is a bit confusing though so co-creator Bryan Konietzko broke it down on his Tumblr. Basically, Books 1 (12 episodes) and Book 2 (14 eps) will be Season 1, and Books 3 and 4 (13 eps each) will be Season 2. Still no word of when Book 2 will air, as it is currently being animated.

6/28/12: Apologies for the site trouble lately! But the Korra finale has aired, and although season two is on its way to be animated, there's no word of when it will be ready to air. In the meantime, you can watch the episodes at Nick.com/korra if you're in the USA. In addition, the NickToons channel will be running a special event July 9 - July 20 called "Korra: Making of a Legend," which will have behind-the-scenes and creator commentary on the show! Info and video clip is at IGN.com.

Other news is that Dark Horse announced a new Avatar graphic novel series will be made to answer the burning fan question, Where's Ursa! Titled "The Search," it takes place immediately after The Promise Part 3 graphic novel and features Zuko and Azula on the search for their mom. The creative work continues to be by writer Gene Luen Yang and art by Gurihiru Studios, and there is an interview with Gene Yang here that discusses the new book and more. The Promise Part 3 comes out in September, and there is no date yet for The Search.

Site-wise, the Voice Acting and Crew Credits have been updated for episodes 10, 11, and 12, and the Links page is finally updated as well.
