Avatar: The Last Airbender has captured the imagination of audiences for years and now the 次 book is coming to Graphic Novels at Dark Horse Comics. We're humbled to share the stories of Michael Dante Dimartino and Bryan Konietzko with the help of award winning writer Gene Luen Yang. The creators took a few moments out of their world-building schedules to share a few thoughts about their experiences with A:TLA.
Dark Horse Comics: Avatar: The Last Airbender is an award winning 表示する with an incredibly avid fandom, Did あなた foresee any of the 愛 your creation has garnered from the beginning?
MIKE: Bryan and I had hoped that people would connect with the characters and the stories the way we did, but あなた can never be sure how it will be received. I’m grateful for all the ファン who have come along on this journey with us.
BRYAN: We just made sure it was a 表示する we believed in and would want to watch ourselves. We weren’t trying to pander to a specific audience. We’re just always trying to create stories and characters from an honest place. Luckily, that quality seems to strike a chord with people of all ages, from many parts of the world.
DHC: What's been the most surprising part of the whole adventure that A:TLA has been for あなた both?
MIKE: I’m happy and a little surprised that we’re still working in the アバター universe after almost 10 years. Creating a new series and seeing the original characters come to life in graphic novel form is really exciting. It’s great that people keep watching and new ファン are discovering the original series all the time.
BRYAN: I think the most surprising thing to me is that it doesn’t get any easier to make, even after all this time!
DHC: The coming graphic novels follow the 表示する and attempt to seed the world for the eventual Legend of Korra series, how much of the history and future of the world of A:TLA do あなた have planned out?
MIKE: We figured out a lot of the big events that needed to occur in order for the events in “Legend of Korra” to make sense. We wanted to have a もっと見る urban, technological setting and explore the theme of tradition vs. modernity. And since the story takes place 70 years after the original series, we wanted to 表示する how the world had changed over time. This naturally led us to the setting of Republic City, a melting pot for all the world’s benders and non-benders, sort of what New York City was like in the 1920s and 30s. The graphic novels do a great job of 表示中 where the seeds of Republic City begin and will continue to explore Aang and Zuko’s part in creating it.
DHC: Beyond the 次 book and Legend of Korra are there any other parts of the story あなた think need to be told, be it comics または cartoons?
MIKE: We know the ファン are dying to know what happened to Zuko’s mom, so hopefully we will have an answer for them in the near future. And yes, we have ideas for the past and future of the アバター world, but at this point it’s too early to talk about anything concrete. The アバター universe is vast and full of stories to be told!
DHC: What part of the coming 本 do あなた think will surprise fans?
MIKE: It’s not exactly a surprise, but I’m excited about how well the graphic novel has come together. The writer, Gene Yang, was already a ファン of the 表示する when we first talked to him about the story, and he’s brought a great sense of drama, humor, and ハート, 心 to the project. And the artwork によって Gurihiru is charming, dynamic, and beautiful. The book really feels like an organic extension of the 表示する in the best way possible.
DHC: If あなた had a super power what would it be?
MIKE: I’ll take flying. または that thing Nightcrawler does when he pops from place to place.
BRYAN: The power to speak and understand any language. Even in real life, bilingual
DHC: Thank あなた both for your time!
