The highlight of the new addition is the glimpse at Irene Koh’s participation, going beyond merely drawing the scripts to actively shaping and altering the characters and world of Turf Wars to provide more authentic representation. In addition to collecting the three volumes in one place for the first time, the new Library Edition also includes behind-the-scenes documents such as character designs, color processes, and writer’s notes. Initially released in three volumes throughout 20, the new Library Edition of Turf Wars collects the miniseries in a complete package that feels satisfyingly well made.

However, thanks to being written by series co-creator Michael DiMartino and boasting beautiful art from Irene Koh (as well as Paul Reinwand on layouts and Vivian Ng on colors) Turf Wars proves itself a worthy successor to the television series that pushes Korra and her friends into the next chapter of their lives. When Dark Horse Comics announced The Legend of Korra: Turf Wars in 2015, many worried it would be a simple cash-in on the popular franchise, as some of the post-show comics of its predecessor, Avatar: The Last Airbender felt. Many series have tried to address this by offering “official” continuations of canceled shows via comic books, a practice popularized by the successful Buffy the Vampire Slayer run from the mid-00s.

It is often bittersweet when a television show goes off the air, especially if it ends on a note that left you wanting more.
