This was better than the last one.

There were a lot more character interactions and plot progression, even if the plot has been dragging its feet. I have a bad feeling that there is going to be a lot of exposition in the final comic.

This comic couldn’t be any clearer about its sibling comparisons. Rafa and Misu feel like they were introduced just to be more points of comparison for Zuko and Azula’s utter lack of a healthy sibling relationship. The Gaang could have ran into anyone to introduce the concept of magic plastic surgery but they run into a sister who devoted her entire life to helping her brother. In someone else’s hands, I’d be delightfully intrigued.

With one more comic to go (for The Search), I doubt we’re going to get much in the way of actually discussing Zuko and Azula’s relationship. We just get cheeky hints with visual comparisons between the pairs of siblings we have throughout the comic. Admittedly, we did get really close to one of these talks when Zuko, in a fit of frustration, demands to know why their relationship is the way it is. Unfortunately, Azula’s not lucid enough at the moment to answer.

I still don’t know what to make of Azula from these comics. Most of this comes from me not knowing what’s supposed to be going on with her. In the show, she clearly had a mental breakdown that’s only gotten worse over time, but even the show has made me raise a few eyebrows. Ultimately, I prefer the show’s version because we don’t see much of it. We get just enough to see how far she’s fallen and to get a glimpse at what’s been truly upsetting her underneath her once-immaculate veneer and has absolutely been bothering her for a while now.

I haven’t talked much about the creator(s) of the Avatar comics. That’s because in pretty much anything that isn’t a book with a single author, it’s harder to tell what was the writer, what was the editor, what was the artist, what was changed because corporate said so, etc. There are so many levels of communication that needs to happen with comics and television that attributing narrative or character problems to a single person always feels a touch disingenuous, at least to me. So, I have no idea who is responsible for Azula’s overall portrayal.

The way Azula is written feels more inline with Hollywood insanity than how it was presented in the show. Clearly she’s only gotten worse over the time skip but sometimes this feels almost like a caricature, what with her often loosing her grip on reality when it’s most narratively convenient. The key word here being “almost.” It could be much worse and the paranoia is done well. It’s the hallucinations and the treatment of them that bothers me.

None of Azula’s behaviors except the violent ones she’s always exhibited are ever brought up by the Gaang. Azula is asked once who she keeps talking to during her hallucinations. It’s never answered and it’s never brought up again. When the average person sees someone constantly muttering to themself and yelling at nothing, they don’t normally just ignore it or write it off unless they’re used to it. None of the Gaang should be used to this considering how I highly doubt any of them visited Azula while she was locked up.

I honestly don’t know how seriously I’m supposed to be taking Azula’s mental state when no one else in the comic seems to care, because, right now, it feels like I’m taking it too seriously.

I will gleefully admit I was wrong about the giant wolf spirit and Ikem. It seems more likely that Ikem had a run in with the Mother of Faces and changed himself into Noren (I’m only picking Norin because mystery rules dictate that we have to have seen all the players before the culprit is revealed). At least the comic can still surprise me.

So, does the Mother of Faces collect faces like Koh? Does she swap them out with the faces of unsuspecting or completely suspecting mortals for fun or out of some sense of charity or pity? Is she older than Koh, because she has the look and feel of an ancient primordial being. The Mother of Faces is seriously the most interesting thing that has happened in this comic so far and I want to know more.
