That's a pretty silly reason seeing as both Green Lantern TAS and Young Justice still aired new episodes. I should really make a GLTAS thread but now the mid season break just started.

I'm very upset I need my fix man

I also got my print copy of The Promise yesterday. Yet another thing I can be anxious for.

From the official blog

namanja(fan artist):

I wanted to finish but I couldn’t do it. I’ve done too much evil today.
I apologize in advance.

(Bryan):
Why would anyone feel the need to apologize for this work of blinding beauty? Aang and Korra are on-model for once!

I am still blinded.

[d00msdaydan]

Toph would be proud

[RIPBILLYMAYS]

So about Amon being Bumi

Someone on their FB page speculated that Aang felt bad for Bumi since he taught Tenzin airbending and Kaya waterbending so he taught him a modified form of energybending so that you don't have to use a person's energy.

[TheLolrus]

Bumi's got that waterbender ethnicity going on in the family tree concept, though.

Maybe Sokka and Toph got married. She blushed a few times when he complimented/touched her.

I want this to happen even with the weird Lin/Tenzin cousin thing because if it doesn't then she's probably going to marry some random dweeb like this guy

[Cakebatyr]

(You only need the first ~25 seconds of this)

So this is why Amon hates bending! It all makes sense! Don't worry guys, the equalist mechs are just BFRs and will get nerfed soon as the plot progresses.

Air not bended enough.

Can someone elaborate on the mystery of Zuko's mother? I haven't seen the original show since it ended.

Zuko's mom ran away from home he was a child, she was banished or something and they never reveal what happened to her

When Iroh's son, Lu Ten, died in the siege of Ba Sing Se, Iroh resigned from the military out of grief. Ozai saw this as an act of weakness, and confronted Fire Lord Azulon to strip Iroh of his royal inheritance of the crown as Azulon's first-born son for his failure in the war. Azulon was furious at Ozai's lust for power when the rightful heir had just lost his son, and ordered Ozai to suffer the same fate and kill his first-born son, Zuko. Azula told this to Zuko, who told it to his mother, Ursa, who confronted Ozai about it. Ozai compromised, and agreed to spare Zuko's life in exchange for the crown. That night Ursa assassinated Fire Lord Azulon, changed his will so Ozai would become Fire Lord instead of Iroh, and fled the palace. Ozai's first act as Fire Lord was to permanently banish Ursa for treason, and she was never seen or heard from again.

[TheLolrus]

Do you think it'll come up in The Promise at all? They did elaborate on Zuko's conversation with Ozai a bit in the first issue.

[markfu]

Well if Korra ever meets the new firelord we might find out. Then again they might just keep it a secret forever.

[d00msdaydan]

I bet we never find out, they seem to love tormenting their fans

Yeah, this is a dark story in a cartoon show if I've ever seen one.

On another note, the first person who revealed Zuko's execution order was Azula. Since Azulon was never actually shown giving the order to Ozai, Azula could have made the entire thing up to tease Zuko, and Ozai would have just capitalized on the opportunity when Ursa confronted him.

[Zinayzen]

...when was that whole thing established? I vaguely remember it being hinted at in the cartoon, but not quite in that detail.

[TheLolrus]

It's possible, but given the horrid nature of the three previous Fire Lords, I wouldn't be surprised if Azulon had given that order.

[Corndog Ninja]

The episode in question is "Zuko Alone", so rewatching it might help understand more.

[Cuon Alpinus]

I think that Zuko's mom killed Azulon to protect Zuko, and set it up so that Ozai would become King in order to keep quiet and exiled herself for killing the man.
