Avatar: The Last Airbender - Team Avatar Tales Paperback – October 15, 2019

I bought Team Avatar Tales, The Lost Adventures, The Promise, and The Search after I finished watching Avatar: The Last Airbender.I read a review saying that the reviewer thought Team Avatar Tales was a waste of money, and that The Lost Adventures was better. They're both good, in my opinion.Team Avatar Tales comes in at around 72 pages, whereas The Lost Adventures comes out at a little over 200 pages. This paperback book was about $10 new, whereas Lost Adventures was a little under $20 for the paperback, so the price is relatively good (the comics are in color, and color printing is more expensive, which is why the books are a little pricey). The Lost Adventures gives a little more reading material for your money. This book is shorter, so if you didn't like a story it'll feel like more of a hit to your money, whereas Lost Adventures is three times longer, so it would take three bad stories to equal one bad story in this book, in terms of value and ratio of content. I found both comics had stories I liked and didn't like, and both are five-star comics.I was initially reluctant to buy this comic because the cover and some of the internal artwork didn't look that good. I only bought it because I would rather have a physical version of the comics. I wanted to own them, not read them for free online. I also wanted to give this a try because I'm a completionist, and I didn't want to miss anything from the world of The Avatar.After I bought it, I didn't read it right away, because the cover and an initial glance of the interior didn't have me excited for the artwork. Lost Adventures didn't look that great at first glance either, but after I read that I also liked it. The two are of similar quality, in my opinion.However, after I started reading this comic I read it all at once, and I was sad after I finished it, because I wanted more.This comic contains:ReboundThe SubstituteShellsSokka's PoemToph and the BoulderOrigamiSistersThe ScarecrowToph and The Boulder, and The Scarecrow, were my favorite short stories.Sokka's Poem was the worst, in my opinion. The artwork was terrible, and the storytelling didn't even come close to the haiku story in the animated series. However, this short story was only two pages long, so it was okay.Rebound tells the story of Mai after the 100-year was is over. I liked how it developed her character a little in regards to her family.The Substitute told a story of Sokka's antics with his Fire Nation disguises.Shells told the story of Suki's strength, and her helping uplift other people and give them hope.Toph and The Boulder (see picture) was hilarious and showed a different side of The Boulder that we didn't see in the animated series.Origami told the story of Katara and about not losing hope in the face of adversity.Sisters explores Ty Lee's feelings of whether or not she belongs in The Kyoshi Warriors, and explores her relationship with her six other identical siblings.The Scarecrow showed the humor between Sokka and the rest of his friends.The artwork of this book takes some getting used to. It's not worse than the animation of the animated series, and it's not worse than the artwork in The Lost Adventures. It's just different and unique in its own way.Get this book if you want to learn more about some of the side characters, and you want to think deeper about the world of The Avatar, hope, friendship, and more.Note: I purchased a new copy of this book and the cover was bent, so I returned it. I got a second copy and dried glue was oozing out of the inside of the back cover (along the whole length of the spine). There were two long strands of glue sticking out, so I cut the longer strand in half. The longer strand of glue was two inches long. It's too much work to return it again, so the the printing quality of this book may not be up to par compared to the rest of the Avatar comics.

I've been a fan of ATLA for about as long as I can remember, I have a whole library full of all of the Avatar and Korra comics, and I have to admit, it felt a little incomplete because of the different Comic Book Day comics that were previously only available online. I'd say that if you're a casual fan, your money is much better spent on a different ATLA comic, but if you're like me and soak up every bit of content you can get- this is for you! I loved the different art styles, especially Faith Erin Hicks' version of Team Avatar! I hope to see more stuff like this from the ATLA team in the future.

Excellent stories3 of the stories were free so that is why the comic has a low costAll 8 stories are very goodI would say that this comic tells 8 stories that needed to be told and tie up some loose ends

My kids loved Avatar the show and loved this as well. We are excited to read the next one! Would buy it again

Great artwork! Not necessarily important read but one of my favorites as it takes you back to the original books and fills in some gaps.

The one star off was only for the distress on the book and poor packaging. It was the least damaged book in my order but not without it's own dents and dirt/residue you could scrape off.The book itself was so much fun, you can just hear the character's voices in your head as you read. It is very short but I actually prefered the compilations of stories here over The Lost Adventures despite having much less to read. You get some different art styles which was really cute and at times added to some comedic elements to some of the stories. You have some returning characters such as The Boulder which I didn't expect to see again and a look after the big events after the series ended though again not a ton of additional information to build the world more. Still, I really enjoyed this comic and I'd come back to it on a bad day just to cheer up.

This fantastic product came in today. It has came in great shape, un mint cindition and with no flaw. For the comics itself- it is written lightly, very colirful- a delight!Recommended for any Avatar fan out there- treat yourself with the last instalment of the Avatar universe and canon- you'll not regret it.

the art styles are great and the comics are fun. came quickly and in good condition
