Imbalance by Bryan Konietzko, Michael Dante DiMartino, Faith Erin Hicks
4.0
4/5 Stars
Yeah, this is exactly what I was hoping it would be. For context, The Last Airbender is one of my favorite shows ever, if not my absolute favorite. While I enjoyed the past comics (which I plan on rereading very soon), I always had a problem envisioning them as episodes of the show. They never really felt that close to what they we're adding on to after the series finale. I didn't have that issue with Imbalance. The relationship dynamics are much more similar to what they were like in the show, ESPECIALLY Aang and Katara, which was a lot more enjoyable. And I could easily see this being a mini-arc in the show akin to the Desert in Book 2. The art is also phenomenal.
Overall, this is a much tighter and very well executed addition to the ATLA story, and I can't wait for the next comics (at least I hope there are more).
