for a kids story, this tackles the problems and nuances of colonialism really well!

More Avatar is always good, but the book has some issues and didnt totally hit the mark for me. 3.5. I suspect I’ll like some of the next ones more.

Iroh inventing boba before its time was excellent though.

This book is heavy. Sometimes the scenes ended really abruptly and the notes at the side are fun but when reading I really hate those because they pull me out of the story

the gaang (ESPECIALLY aang) agreeing to kill zuko Just So Immediately and just immediately Assuming He Was Wrong and “becoming his father” was so out of character was actually laughable. parts of this i did enjoy a lot, and the expansion of the world feels very warm and understandable ex. iroh creating boba lol. toph and sokka were very in character but i found the students of the metal ending academy SO annoying i doubt they’d ever be cleared for actual episodes, but the whole concept and conflict of the metal ending academy could for sure be an episode. however if i’m remembering from the first time i read these comics, the comics do get much better and more true to the characters from here on out. if we ignore the way aang was so crazily out of character and how zuko would never actually want to jump into war again so quickly, this was ok.
