"The Last Airbender: Legend of Korra": Exclusive First Look
So we've seen Korra's face at last!

The only bit that worries me is the supposed 2012 release date and the title being "The Last Airbender: The Legend of Korra."

Little too long, a little too "movie" for my own taste, and far too long to wait to finally see Korra's adventures.

...wouldn't it make more sense to call it Avatar: The Legend of Korra?

*is puzzled*

Personally, I believe the details "next year" and "The Last Airbender: Legend of Korra" are just editorial mistakes. All previous mentions of Korra have said that it would air THIS year, and have all previously been titled Avatar: Legend of Korra.

I really see no reason to be jumping ship fact-wise just because of these two word choices in one tiny article. Kinda like how when the show info was first released and the press release said it was 70-years after ATLA, and then in one interview Andrea Romano said 75-years?

But maybe that's just me. :/

[sharkman_jhones]

Well, the author said Nick told him those two bits of info, so who knows?

[musogato]

Hm. I'm still not really buying it though. It's way too clunky of a name.

I'm holding out until more information comes out.

[sharkman_jhones]

Yeah, it rolls off the tongue like a crate full of hammers, and I doubt Mike and Bryan would wanna drop "Avatar" from the title.

The title's gotta be an error.

And I am SO EXCITED EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

I love how butch she looks :x

I love how butch she looks :x

I know! Won't it be awesome to see a woman with some muscles? And as the main character, no less?

[poeticalpanther]

AND she's a POC? = altogether made of awesome.

[jedifreac]

She's so fierce!

The title is kind of silly. If they were going with Avatar: The Legend of Korra, that would make perfect sense but The Last Airbender? AANG was the last airbender. He isn’t anymore. Korra is not an airbender.

So, who else is blubbing that they named one of the (presumably main?) characters "Mako"? *sniffle*
