Avatar The Last Airbender Comics

Avatar The Last Airbender fans will be interested to know about this trio of Graphic Novels, they will continue the story directly after the events of the shows finale and will lead into the new show The Last Airbender Legend Of Korra.
Pretty much all info on the first one and what we know about the other 2 is in these posts below.
Written by Gene Yang and Art by Gurihiru, it will be 100% canon as Mike and Bryan were heavily involved with Dark Horse for these.
Part 1 is out January 25th
Avatar The Last Airbender Series “The Promise: Part 1″ To follow events Shortly after Season 3 in Comic Form – Pre Order Now
Exclusive Interview with Author of ATLA The Promise Part 1
The Promise Part 1 News – Gene Yang Presentation and New Preview Pages

From what I have seen of the book, it looks amazing, the perfect way to continue on the ATLA story since Korra will be the new show.

Hey cool another Dark Horse continuation to a franchise that is unlikely to live up to the original material!

(I kid, kind of)

This is better than nothing, I suppose, and will keep people occupied and satisfied until the new show comes out. At least its not a sequel to the live action movie.

^ Half of the book was leaked through Amazon's preview. For me, what I have seen the plot is amazing and the characterisation is exactly like the show.

Also Dark Horse's first Avatar book "The Lost Adventures" was excellent, so they have delivered once already.

Nice, I'll have to keep an eye out for this.

Having just watched the entire series on Netflix - I may have to check this out.

Damn now I have to wait for this in addition to the new show.

^I know how you feel, I have known about Korra since about May 2010, but once part 1 hits in January we hit a stream of Avatar stuff.
Part 2 released in May and I assume part 3 in august/september leading into Korra in mid/late 2012.
