The beloved The Legend of Korra TV series aired its last episode in December, leaving a big hole in the heart of Korrasami fans. Now, Korra and Asami are set to return in Legend of Korra: Turf Wars. The three-part original graphic novel is slated to release in the summer of 2017.
The Legend of Korra: Turf Wars will take place immediately following the events of The Legend of Korra anime series. According to Legend of Korra co-creator Michael DiMartino, Korra and Asami return from the spirit world in Turf Wars, but discover the new spirit portal has caused a great deal of chaos in Republic City.
“Korra has to figure out how to find a new balance in the city with all this stuff that’s gone on,” DiMartino recently told Entertainment Weekly. “It’s gonna take place right after the finale, so it’s focusing on Korra and Asami’s relationship as a new threat emerges. It’s kind of like the aftermath dealing with the new portal in the city, and all the evacuees coming back to find their homes wiped out cause of the portal.”
Via Entertainment Weekly, DiMartino is responsible for writing the OGN, while the art work will be created by Irene Koh. Previously, Koh has created works for DC and Marvel. Stay tuned as we expect to learn more about Legend of Korra: Turf War in the months ahead. The first novel of the three-part series is expected to drop in June 2017.
