Nick Launches new AVATAR series!


Nick just recently launched a preview of the new AVATAR series after the last airbender. This one is set 70 years after Aang saved the world. The name of the new Avatar is Korra, a rebelious teenage girl who knows how to bend three elements but is learning to Airbend. She will encounter, Aang and Katara's son, Tenzen which is an airbending sifu.

So far the project is set to air on Nickelodeon on 2011. Many people have already posted so many fan arts for the uppcoming avatar series. This would also be a challenge as people loved the animation series so much like I did. Nick also announced that this series would have a more mature feel than the last airbender but would also want to include the fun as many people enjoyed. Now a new book has opened, it will again tickle the imagination not just with the children but of all ages that I could say is very philosophical yet entertaining series I saw in my lifetime.
