I am a huge fan of the original animated series of Avatar and was crushed when it ended, as I felt that there was still much of the story left to tell. After reading The Promise Part 1 I can happily say that, yes, it is the story I've been waiting for. The comic book continuation of the series is doing the plot threads I had hoped to see on the show and judging by this first installment, it seems to be doing them very well indeed.
The story of Aang and his friends is picked up from where we last left them, down to the minute. Zuko is the new Fire Lord and has a lot of work ahead of him, restoring peace to the Four Nations. His first decision is to remove the Fire Nation colonies from the Earth Nation and resettle the people there back into the Fire Nation. With the Avatar by his side, he hopes this will go smoothly, but it's been a hundred years; many people of the colonies have laid down roots and don't want to leave their homes. Zuko soon realises the situation is not black and white, but will Aang agree? Or will the new friends be on opposing sides again?
I am again impressed by, despite ostensibly being for children, Avatar's willingness to tackle complex issues and do so in a smart and multi-faceted way. I read this volume in one sitting, completely engaged from start to finish. Everything great about the original series is present here: the characters, the humour, the relationships, the fight scenes. I don't think fans will be disappointed at all.

I'm a huge fan of Avatar: The Last Airbender, and I'm extremely happy with the way The Promise seems to be shaping up.
First of all, the art style is fantastic, and very true to the original series. And Second of all, the story has started off very well. Can't wait for Part Two.
A must-buy for any A: TLA fan.

I'm a huge fan of the series, and i really enjoyed reading this. It starts right where the show stopped, and continues the story of our heroes. In all aspects it stays true to the spirit and humor of the show. Since this is only the first part, not much has been revealed yet, but hopefully this will answer some of the unanswered questions we all have, like what happened to Zuko's mother. Either way the story is good, and im really looking forward to the two next chapters, i just wished they would have been here before Legend of Korra, but oh well, it's not like it's critical.

Interesting
Got this for my sister. Characters are very much like the ones you come to know from the series. The story picks up exactly where the series finished off. Good read.
