Is there any reason that Amon can't just be his own person? Does he have to be the alter ego of another character?

Anyway, I think Amon might be that villain that was talked about earlier (the one that Aang dealt with) if he is still alive. IF he is still alive.

You see Amon if both flashbacks, he is his own person. Also, he is just implementing chi blocking on the third eye charka point, not energy bending.

Amon has golden eyes/blue eyes depending on where you look (though it seems they're usually golden). Asami has green eyes.

Oh god that video.

Could Amon be an incomplete reincarnation of the Avatar? I mean when Aang was in the avatar state and was literally almost killed, could the cycle have started then, but then Aang was healed by Katara, meaning he never truely died and the cycle was incomplete. Amon would be a shitty version of the avatar, just like Katara can't/hasn't used her avatar state yet, because maybe she literally can't?

Are you saying that Korra can't enter the Avatar state because of Amon? If so I don't think that would make sense as Aang was able to enter it. I don't think that Amon is an Avatar born when Aang was injured as Aang still possessed the avatar spirit.

Lol seriously, I'd rather see him as "that bad guy" than some epic plot twist of a character we already know.

he never died though so the cycle couldn't have been broken

it would be a huge ass-pull for the writers to make up something like that on the spot

"I was gone, you brought me back."

I don't think they're going that direction but it was confirmed that Aang WAS briefly dead. It's like people dying on the operating table before being resuscitated.

That's not really how dying works, and it would greatly disappoint me if they would steal plot ideas from Joss Whedon

I think if Aang was "dead" enough to trigger the Avatar Cycle, he also was in the Avatar State enough to have it break in the Cycle.

You have a very vague definition of stealing. Any creative idea that is similar is not stealing.

I think it was said somewhere that Aang died and was revived but had to go on a spiritual journey to reconnect with his past lives and not end the avatar line.

Hey, can somebody help me find these with English Subtitles? I generally watch my stuff online at night after my GF goes to sleep, but we sleep in the same room so I always have the sound off (no Phones -_-).

English with English subs would be cool, Japanese with Eng Subs would be better, but I'll take anything with the subs tbh. Starting from episode 1. =)

To be really fair, Toph really was considered the best Earthbender on the planet by a longshot. Way better than Aang. If not for her blindness she would have been far more powerful than Ozai ever was. The fact that she overshadows some random police officer, and her daughter who while may have had the training from the best may but still not the simple raw skill, is no surprise whatsoever.

Toph was the best Earthbender on the planet, Katara was most likely the best water bender (at least by the end of the series), and Zuko was damn strong.

Aang had some powerful friends.

Korra is getting the raw end of the bending spectrum allies. I really hope the bending improves, because she herself is still pretty terrible.


There was a great comment about how the two strongest earthbenders in the world were a 12 year old blind girl and a crazy 112 year old geezer.

To be fair though, I'm expecting a bit more out of Chief Bei Fong and Tenzin. She IS the chief of police and Toph's daughter, while Tenzin is the ONLY airbending master in the world AND son of the last avatar. And yet they can't take out more than one or two enemy grunts before getting taken out by electric something.

Every time they face an enemy for hte first time they lose. It's to establish that they're truly a threat. Also theres the whole unpredictability of fighting someone when you have no idea what they're capable of doing.
Tenzin got knocked out of the air by a cablething... he had no idea they could do that.

while toph was pretty sick, i always felt like katara was the most powerful of any character excluding aang in avatar state and ozai

a toph that wasn't blind wouldn't work of course, much of her power resulted from being blind


and awesome comic

Toph was, like Azula, a prodigy. Katara maybe too... she became retardedly strong at the end. If Katara was better than Toph, then it wasn't by a very large margin.

There is a comic where Toph and Bumi have a 1v1 but it ends in a tie. The title of the comic had "Part 1" in it, so its reasonable that it'll be continued eventually and we'll have our answer. Not that it really matters... Bumi is 112. His abilities have peaked. At most he learned to metalbend after the series.
Toph was TWELVE. She lived to... well I don't know how long, but by the time she was 20 you can be your ass she'd be miles ahead of Bumi, and lightyears ahead of anyone else.

Why is everyone dead? Bumi lived to fuckin 112 during a 100 year war. He was alive beore and after. The firenation old lady twins were like 90. Thers a lot of old people. Why is it that Sokka/Toph/Aang couldn't even make it to 80? :/

I think if Aang was "dead" enough to trigger the Avatar Cycle, he also was in the Avatar State enough to have it break in the Cycle.

This is a very good point and I think it prety much shuts down the theory completely. He died in the Avatar state. If he truly died, there would be no new avatar afterwards. So the 'dual cycle' theory really doesn't work.

As for the comic: OH GOD SO GOOD.
The video was also quite awesome. :D

Agreed pretty much 100%, except that we assume Toph got a ton better with age. She may not have, she might have just understood so much at a young age that that was not much else to learn.

The comics are friggin awesome though. I just love the entire world and mythology. It is simple yet complex at the same time and has so much room for various plots and whatnot in-between main story-lines.

Pff. You see that comic a few pages ago?
When he's finally unmasked you're going to be in panel one, and we're all going to be in the last panel.

Seriously though. He has a fucking mask. He will be unmasked. Theres no point in having an unmasking if he's unmaksed and its like... "he's... this guy! Who's this guy?"
