Inspiration Comes From Strange Places

Casual search of Firelord family trees got me nowhere useful, rather by definition, but it did lead me to this awesome ATLA storyboard artist who drew this awesome image, which I liked so much I learned how to make .gif images just so I could make it into an icon. (Don’t laugh! It’s my first .gif! If you can do better, please do; I would not be averse to a GOOD version of this icon!)

Because dammit, I dare you to come up with something more happy-making than a Calvin and Hobbes homage using Toph and Iroh.

And go check out her other stuff! It’s addictive. I literally honest-to-god laughed out loud at a couple of those comics.

Me, I should go to bed before it’s time to get up. Good night, or the 20 or so minutes left of it!

Yeah, that's awesome. I also love the gif you did. I'ma gank it. :)

Gah! Now I'm stuck reading her epic comic about Zhao in the Water Tribe.

Parts are a little bit confusing, because I've never watched Avatar, and it presumes some familiarity with the source material, but I'm still hooked.

Yeah, familiarity would probably help!

Although really, I highly recommend the series just because it is such an excellent show. If you have Netflix, you're in luck, because the whole series is on instant play.

I don't have Netflix because I almost never watch Movies or TV shows. Don't really care for the medium. This is actually one of the things I like about Anime: there's almost always a Manga version as well.

I may have to make an exception for this, but I doubt I'll get around to it unless I can talk someone else into watching it with me.

Oh, yeah, I'm like 300 pages into the Water Tribe comic and totally hooked.

Another side effect of this is that if I do get around to watching the show, I'm going to have a huge chunk of Fanon with Zhao as the Protagonist in my head, which will probably cast a few things in a different perspective ;)
