Charlotte P.: Fantastic comic books my daughter is obsessed with. So pleased to encourage her reading with her favourite series

addi3118: Really nice book for anyone who loves avatar. But just to clear it up, the book is about the adventures of the gaang in between each episode, not a continuation of the story! If you want a continuation, “The Promise” is the first book in the series :)))

Montse P: No es necesario, pero si eres o te consideras un fan, es un libro muy bonito para tener.
Si tienes ediciones en español de los otros cómics no va a combinar el lomo con los demás, queda un poco disparejo.

Antoine Dubois: Chouette livre pour les fans de la série "Avatar : le dernier maitre de l'air". Livre en anglais.

Meow.: I loved the Avatar series and bought this book to further learn about the characters. I really enjoyed reading this. Anyone who loves the series should pick up this comic book.

ReubenReuben: The novel was in good packaging to keep it safe when shipped and came in excellent condition. You can see how many stories there are and how many pages they run when looking at the contents. Overall, a lot of fun enjoyable short stories with a few standouts like Relics, Going Home Again, The Bridge, and Dragon Days just to name a few! The majority of artists had an art style that was almost identical to the original show, but there was a small portion of oddly illustrated stories. I loved reading through this treasure trove of lost stories from the show and imagining what some of them could've been at full-length episodes.

S. H.: Originally published as short comics in magazines or as bonus features packaged with DVDs of the animated series, the stories in <I>The Lost Adventures</I> supplement the main story of the cartoon. They are created for people who are already watching the show, and would be a very poor point of entry for someone unfamiliar with the series because readers are expected to already know the characters and basic principles of Bending 101.

Most of the short stories are pretty humorous, bordering on silly. One story shows the funny (but disastrous!) effects of a bad head cold on an Airbender, while in another Sokka decides that the best way to get food for their troupe is to sell their services as monster hunters, only to have the plan backfire when the “fake” monster turns out to be a real threat. These are entertaining, but forgettable. Like the show, however, some of the stories take a more serious turn, and fill in small gaps in the main storyline. A Fire Nation general explains to Aang exactly how his people were able to destroy the Airbenders one hundred years in the past after using the same strategies to trap the Avatar. We learn what convinced Zuko to...

Mena P.: When Avatar was on the air and my little butt was planted in front of the TV every day for new episodes and re-runs, I didn't even know about things like these books. By the time the series started I no longer had a Nickelodeon Magazine subscription, so I didn't get to see any of the comics when they were published the first time around. When I found out this existed, I bought it right away!

Just about every Avatar comic that was published before this book's release date is in here (more recent bits, like the just released "Rebound", are not, and things like The Promise and The Search have been released on their own), and it showcases many different art styles. Some are so close to the anime that I thought they were done by the actual show's artists, others are a bit like a wacky fanart. All, however, are entertaining. Some are even a bit sad.

If you're just getting into Avatar, wait until after you watch the series to buy this, as some bits take place during the show, show subsequent events from things that happened, or simply would not make sense unless you watched first (such as Sokka posing as Wang Fire in the Fire Nation army.) After you've taken that last dvd...

Jay Boulton: After finishing the entire The Last Airbender series, I went and bought various extras including books like this one and 'The Promise: Part 1', and although The Promise has clearly had a lot more thought and care put into it in terms of following the canon and delivering a deep story, I think I might actually have enjoyed 'The Lost Adventures' a lot more.

For one thing, it is great value, the book is a lot thicker than I had anticipated, which is always a pleasant surprise, especially in comparison to the first part of The Promise, which was tiny. This one kept me going for several days (though I did 'ration out' chapters to make it last longer).

The stories vary from a couple of pages for a simple gag or two, two spreads of five or six pages which tell more of a story and even develop some of the characters we've come to know so well. Having this nice mix-up of themes and tones was far from distracting, but actually recreated the feel of the original show a lot better, which was known for having great comedy and heartfelt scenes, along with the adventure and action side of things. Since there's also a mixture of writers, and the masterminds DiMartino and Konietzko...

P. Romance: Aang and the gang are back in this 230-page compilation of mini-comics of their mis-adventures, as they made their way to fight the fire lord. Chronologically in order, the book was separated into 3 chapters: the water, earth and fire kingdoms. The length of the mini-comics ranged from 2 to 6 pages long. Every comic were stand alone reads and showcased quick adventures that happen "behind the scenes" of the cartoon. Humor, that the show was famous for, was evident within the panels. They were witty with a little bit of irony thrown in. Even if you don't laugh out loud at the gangs' antics, you will definitely smile. The pages are tight and glossy. Paper quality is similar to textbook pages. The colors and lines are sharp, clear and defined. The artwork was similar to the original style from the show but there were a couple of comics were slightly different. For most people, the font was a decent size and comparable to the standard size of comic books. If you have a hard time reading smaller font, it might be an issue. In the back, there are a few pages dedicated to the people, involved with the show, with a quick bio and some sketches (if you have the artbook, it was just a...
