O_O is that an official artwork on zuko?
That image is SO going on my wallpaper RIGHT NOW.
(I sorta kinda wish they'd made a spin-off mini-serie about the adult avatar gang from the first show. But then again, with Aang being a full trained Avatar, there can't be much that actually poses a danger to him)

Not sure if its the official Zuko or not, but if its not they should use it.
Im hoping we might eventually see Zuko, aparently hes still alive. You should have heard my girlfriend, shes still holding out hope for Zutara. I told her how effed up that would be with Aang dead, and both of them old and nasty, but...

agreed.

he is alive, and seeing as there's 3 more seasons to go, I'll be very surprised if we don't see him at least once.

yuck, that's an image I certainly DID NOT needed.
Then again, she may have a point: Katara's grandmother Kana, ran away from the northern water tribe, married, had a family of her own, and long after her husband was dead, she married again, this time with her old fiancé, Master Pakku.
The situation is similar here, Katara's husband is long dead, its quite possible that Mai is no longer alive either, so the "Zutara" that some people crave "could" happen. Not saying it will, just saying that if it happened with Katara's grandmother, it could happen with her too.

So I rewatched Korra on Friday (yes - all 12 episodes in one evening), and I really want someone to call Korra out for her irresponsible bending next season. She was about to @#$%ing
kill
Tarrlok in When Extremes Meet, and she didn't even care. Oh, and call out Mako for his overprotectiveness/possessiveness of Korra. He's like a creepy stalker. Oh, and $%^&ing Asami around after everything that happened with her. He could have at least dumped her with dignity
before
admitting his love of Korra.

I don't think that was the case, she went to confront him, and when they began fighting, the whole thing escalated. She expected him to be a sissy coward, who would surrender when confronted with the avatar. She kinda bit more than she could chew.

As much as I think he's an improvement over zuko (FAR FAR FAR less whiny, and actually a pretty good brother) he treats women like crap. I have no idea why is korra so wet after him.

Poor asami. ya know, I absolutely love how they handled her on the show. Most writers are so lazy that in love triangles like these, the moment the whole thing is out in the air, they just have the poor scorned woman lash out at the "main female lead" in a catfight. They could had done that, make Asami behave like a b***h to Korra in order to draw our sympaty away from her, or worse, choose the even lazier option, kill her off to remove her as an obstacle, but they (mercifully) chose not to.
Instead she approached the entire thing in a VERY mature way, rather than lash at Korra, she very specifically mentioned she LIKED Korra, and that it was Mako who was in the wrong here, for kissing her, and not being honest about it, for liking her, and not being open about it. Even after he was busted, he still tried to pin the blame on his own brother for god sakes.
Dude is a real scum to women. I can't help but repeat Alistair from Dragon Age: "Why do women have to lust after men who treat them like crap?"

"You're all out of water, pal." /firebend /charge implies otherwise. Tarrlok faced the prospect of disfigurement, death or using bloodbending. It's not like Korra left him any other options. Sure, she was in the heat of the moment, but she
is
supposed to be the Avatar. In fact, if Tarrlok couldn't bloodbend, he would have been absolutely defenseless.

I have no idea why is korra so wet after him.He's insensitive, probably because he has never imagined the possibility of a girlfriend. He has two beautiful girls romantically interested in him and whilst he likes both he doesn't know what to do. He still is a jerkbender with that situation, but I can understand why he acted the way he did. He just needed to take responsibility for his actions when Asami called him out, which he didn't. I hate the way the show-runners downplayed his actions as "something an average 18 year old guy would do".
No
, he was $%^&ing unfaithful. The way it was played as "no big deal" harmed Mako as a character,
badly
.

That's not an excuse. I never imagined the possibility of a girlfriend either, in fact, all the way to the advanced age of 23 I though I was gonna live the rest of my life alone. Had my first girlfriend at age 24. Did I treated her like crap? hell no, I treated her like a queen, like a goddess.

The difference being Mako's backstory, of course. He has no idea what he's feeling or how to express them because he has never known how. Bolin has the same problem but is on the more cheery/optimistic side of the spectrum, because Mako sheltered him from the worst.

That is the only slack I'm willing to cut him. I can attribute a lot of my finest qualities to my parents, who did a good job raising me, and teaching me good values and morals. Mako lost his parents at an early age, and had to play surrogate father for his little brother. So there is the slack I cut him, and its the reason I don't actually despise him as a character. Again I do believe he's an improvement (a vast one) to Zuko, but he needs to improve the way he treats women.

To be honest they just need to show him apologise to Asami first and foremost, and then as a part of his development come to realise that Korra's
a strong, independent woman who don't need no man
actually capable of looking after herself. Then again, her track record isn't great. She challenges Amon to a duel, gets captured by Equalists and left paranoid. Then she fights Tarrlok and goes missing. Then Amon debends her. I would just rewrite the whole love rectangle thing and completely remove Bolin from it (his interest in Korra magically disappears after that one episode) and give it more time.

Pretty sure this was meant to show the differences between her and Aang

She also IS supposed to be a teenager, and a hotheaded one too. Even Aang lost his !@#$ every time Katara or Appa got harmed. Remember when he found that the sandpeople muzzled appa? or when that stupid general enraged aang by making him believe katara was dead?
Yeah those were 2 points in which he would had easily killed plenty of people if katara hadn't calmed him down.(##RESPBREAK##)8##DELIM##Kangi##DELIM##

I never said Aang was always completely responsible either, but it was glaringly obvious with Korra. Aang also lost control/entered the Avatar state in those instances - Korra didn't. Her irresponsibility is still showed to still be the case in Book 2 with Korra using the Avatar state to airbend her way to victory in a race with Tenzin's kids. Or, at least, the start of Book 2.

(Sorry for double post)
First look at The Promise (Part 3)
.
I like the art but the writing doesn't look very good so far.
I've not actually read any of the Avatar comics, are they worth it?

They're so-so.
If you're curious as to how Republic City came to be, its worth taking a look. Also if you like shipping:
Part 2 does some mild ship tease between Zuko and Suki (Mai breaks up with zuko, and suki shows some awfully sweet concern for him), as well as Toph and Sokka. Given that on Korra, we never hear if Zuko and Mai ever reconciled, and we never hear who's the husband of Toph or who's the wife of Sokka, then the coin is still up in the air if these ships happen, or if they're just teases)

Hopefully the link works, if not just search for it. But the concept seems fun. They use frisbees, tennis balls and racquet balls to simulate the 3 elements. I wouldn't mind playing it lol
