I'm not familar with Avatar?, but awww… (And disabled dragonriders! Not sure if it's Avatar canon or not, but thank you for thumbing your nose at McCaffery.)

Teo's disability is Avatar canon. Also canon is Teo not letting that stop him for anything -- when we first meet him, he's flying. His wheelchair has a glider attachment. He can also do wheelies in it.

The next time he shows up, he's participating in an invasion and driving a TANK. <3 All at thirteen.

I love Avatar.

Especially because nobody makes a big deal about the wheelchair. He can't use his legs, he has an alternate means of transport. It's all good.

Oh, that is so freaking awesome.

[dark_puck]

Yes. <3 And the characters are actually realistic! Neither of the main two female characters is The Chick, either. Or the three female villains who turn up in season two. None of the female characters are really the Chick.

Just take my word for it, everyone is awesome and there's a lot of Parental Bonus and a lot of really subtle things.

Parental Bonus?

Realistic characters-- especially non-objectified women-- are always a plus.

Things that kids won't get but parents will. Like one character staying the night at his girlfriend's house while here parents are in another country. And then later two characters are trying to sneak into each others' tents during the night. And one in the morning is wearing a necklace of flowers.

Boy got leid. :D

The female characters are frickin' AWESOME. Even the three who don't have the elemental powers kick ass and take names. <3333
