Five comics stories set in James Cameron's expansive world that take place before, during, and after the 2009 multiple Academy Award-winning film Avatar. In the year 2154, on the moon Pandora, in a galaxy far from earth, Marine Jake Sully joined the native Na'vi through an avatar body and became their leader in the fight against the destructive RDA organization and human colonization. In
Tsu'tey's Path experience these events--events of the first
Avatar movie--from the perspective of Na'vi Omatikaya warrior Tsu'tey!
Then, in the short story "Brothers," Jake connects with the flying Toruk by remembering the depth of his bond with his twin brother and great partnerships of history and legend.
In
The Next Shadow, set immediately after the events of
Avatar, Jake navigates his position as both leader of the Omatikaya and former Marine as tensions ramp up between the Na'vi and the humans who remain on Pandora.
Meanwhile, in
Frontiers of Pandora: So'lek's Journey, young Na'vi warrior, So'lek, finds himself one of the last survivors of his clan after the Battle of the Hallelujah Mountains. He searches for his place on Pandora and struggles with waking nightmares of war. This is the origin story of So'lek, a key character in Ubisoft's AA PC/console video game.
Finally, set years before the events of
Avatar, in
Adapt or Die, Dr. Grace Augustine wants to build a bridge between the occupying humans and the Na'vi, but her plans hit a wall as a mysterious illness among Na'vi and avatars is blamed on the humans.
