I remember thinking how good this was for Zuko's change to be a good person, and how disappointed I was when they never mentioned her again. But, they do have her in one of the comics for Avatar: The Lost Adventures, so that helped a little.

Adding to this bit by HeirToPendragon:

> The Lost Adventures is a collection of official comics from the series that were put in various other places (like Nick Mag). A few tell stories about what happened between seasons.

"The Lost Adventures" also includes the comics that were bundled with the DVD releases (of the non-boxed set variety), like the "Private Fire" comic which came with the Season 3 DVDs. Also, the comics collected in this book are grouped by season, which helps if you want to read them in the chronological order of the show. "The Lost Adventures" is a pretty good collection since it incudes so many comics (it is 240 pages long) and it spans all three seasons of the show, so if you only get one book to start with, this is the one to get.

The four "Lost Scrolls" books (Water, Earth, Fire, Air; alternatively, I think this one book collects all four) include some background information about the four nations in the world of Avatar as well as some first-person stories from Season 1 (basically, some episodes told from the perspective of some of the characters).

The "Earth Kingdom Chronicles" (titles start with "The Tale of [insert character name here]", available for Aang, Katara, Sokka, Toph, Azula, Zuko; I think this one collects some but not all of them) are similar, but for Season 2 and they don't include background info, just first-person perspectives of the episodes. Basically, you follow the individual characters through Season 2.

There's also three little comics set during Season 3 ("Aang's School Days", "Sokka the Sword Master", and "Love Potion #8"). I've heard these aren't that good, but they exist so I'm mentioning them.

"Sozin's Comet" is a novelization of the series finale (the four "Sozin's Comet" episodes).

The new comics, starting with "The Promise, Part 1", are set after the end of Season 3, and those will start coming out early next year.

If you want to read all these Avatar books more or less in chronological order, you'd start with "The Lost Scrolls", then continue with the Season 1 comics in "The Lost Adventures", move on to the "Earth Kingdom Chronicles", then the Season 2 comics in "The Lost Adventures", then the three short Season 3 comics, then the Season 3 comics in "The Lost Adventures", then the "Sozin's Comet" book, then "The Promise" and all that comes after.

And, of course, there's also The Art of the Animated Series, but that's not a graphic novel and would be more for you or for your son when he's older. =)

Edited to add links.

If possible, read this:
Avatar: The Last Airbender The Lost Adventures

There's more coming to bridge the time between the end of the series and the beginning of the next one: The Promise

edit: and whatever you do, do not watch the live action movie. I still have nightmares about it. ಠ_ಠ

http://avatar.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_Avatar_books

The main things you want are:

  1. The Lost Adventures (collection of comics that take place during ATLA)
  2. The Promise (collected trilogy that takes place after ATLA)
  3. The Search (collected trilogy that takes place after "The Promise")
  4. The Rift (collected trilogy that takes place after "The Search")
  5. Rebound (single-issue from Free Comic Book Day 2013, available online)
  6. Shells (single-issue from Free Comic Book Day 2014, available online)

    ----

    Other stuff:

  7. Tie-ins to the movie. I saw a comment that said the Zuko one was good, but I haven't read these and I don't have a huge desire to since the movie was apparently so terrible.
  8. Recaps of ATLA episodes in comic form. Tokyopop Cine-Mangas and these in the "Chapter books" section. (Some are comics and some aren't). These are not original stories like in "The Lost Adventures". I haven't read them, but I don't believe they add anything new to the stories. The one exception is Love Potion #8
    , which is an original story though it's aimed at a younger crowd.

    ----

    Future stuff:

  9. Smoke and Shadow (trilogy following "The Rift")
  10. 2015 Free Comic Book Day comic
  11. Avatar: The Last Airbender: Legacy (don't know much about this, probably not a comic).
u/Valkrigne · 3 pointsr/TheLastAirbender

there is The Lost Adventures which is a collection of short comics based between episodes of TLA
there is also the Promise part 1, 2 and 3 (part 3 is released in October) which is based after TLA
lastly there is another graphic novel series called The Search which just got announced which is to do with Zuko's mom.
edit: for other animations I'm fairly certain that there are no other animations that are considered canon.

u/bipolarsandwich · 3 pointsr/TheLastAirbender

I'm not positive either, but I listed all the ATLA books that I know of below. Some aren't comics, but I'm not sure if you're just referring to the Gene Luen Yang collab comics or the others as well.

The Lost Adventures

There are also The Earth Kingdom Chronicles series, The Lost Scrolls Collection and The Tale of Aang/Zuko, but I'm not sure if they're canon (I am guessing they are since there's a Nickelodeon logo on them, but the original creators/writers aren't listed among the author so I don't know).

  1. Post direct links to the images, not search results.
  2. The scene is from a comic, "Swordbending", in the Lost Adventures book.
u/Allen_Of_Gilead · 2 pointsr/TheLastAirbender

The read order for the main series is The Promise, The Search, The Rift and the ongoing Smoke and Shadow. There's also The Lost Adventures collection of comics that mostly take place in between ATLA episodes.

I believe the best place to get them is Amazon and there are links to most of them on the sidebar.^^[1]

[1] The ones that aren't there are Smoke and Shadow's two parts and the Lost Adventures collection.

Our subreddit is growing very quickly, so it isn't that surprising. It also helps that both The Last Airbender (A:TLA) and Legend of Korra (LOK) are fantastic shows with both kid and adult friendly content. If you haven't already, watch LOK and read The Promise and The Lost Adventures, you will love all of them if you loved A:TLA

u/MrEgbert · 2 pointsr/TheLastAirbender

A compilation of (canon) Avatar comics has been released called The Lost Adventures.

I heard that at least some, or maybe all, of the comics therein were sourced from the Nick magazine.

u/ezcompany210 · 2 pointsr/TheLastAirbender

There's also another short series called The Lost Adventures. Basically, they take place during the series, and some of them are quite interesting.

I was feeling helpful, but in the future I would recommend just using google.

u/DestinyPvEGal · 1 pointr/legendofkorra

Well they're all on amazon, I'd recommend getting the library editions to save a few bucks if you can. There are comics that pick up from the end of ATLA and ones that pick up after LoK. They're all great so far and I'm super glad I got them. Rise of Kyoshi is also my new favorite novel, so if you liked Kyoshi at all, I highly recommend picking that up. Should be about $15 on amazon too. Lastly there's also Legacy which is meant to be like the book Aang hands down to Tenzin, and Legacy of the Fire Nation from Iroh to Zuko.
