Nickelodeon has released the first look at the upcoming animated series “Avatar: Seven Havens,” the sequel series to the popular shows “Avatar: The Last Airbender” and “The Legend of Korra.”
The artwork was revealed at San Diego Comic Con on Thursday, where “Avatar” celebrated its 20th anniversary.

Follows Earthbending twins after a world-shattering disaster where one discovers she’s the new Avatar after Korra
I don’t have much hope for this after LoK. But I do like how Korra sucked as the avatar so much. She made an apocalypse happen. Maybe leaving the spirit portals open was a bad idea.
LoK is super under rated. Season 2 is a bit of a slog but the rest of it is great.
The fandom, especially the subreddit, has a lot of negative groupthink for anything but ATLA, kinda like the hardcore Star Wars trilogy fans. I don’t think that represents the net view of LoK, as it was very different as it premiered, and general sentiment like IMDB seems to skew much higher.
It does make me worry for Seven Havens’ reception, as the setting/lore is an even more radical departure. There’s going to be tons of nitpicking/peeling apart.
