On the flip side is him looking up at his Avatar Spirit, with artwork for both sides drawn by Airbender co-creator Bryan Konietzko, a process you can see below.

Nickelodeon Announces Avatar: Seven Havens as Post-Korra Series
Nickelodeon and Avatar Studios have officially announced Avatar: Seven Havens, a brand-new 2D animated series set after The Legend of Korra. The upcoming show will follow a young Earthbender who discovers she is the next Avatar in a world devastated by a cataclysmic event. According to Nickelodeon's press release, this new Avatar series will explore a darker era where the Avatar is seen not as a savior, but as a harbinger of destruction. Hunted by both humans and spirits, the young Earthbender must unravel her origins alongside her long-lost twin to save the Seven Havens, civilization's last hope. Creators Michael DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko, who originally developed Avatar: The Last Airbender, expressed their excitement: "When we created the original series, we never imagined we'd still be expanding the world decades later. This new incarnation of the Avatarverse is full of fantasy, mystery, and a whole new cast of amazing characters." The series will span 26 episodes, split into two seasons of 13 episodes each. DiMartino and Konietzko are co-creating the show alongside executive producers Ethan Spaulding and Sehaj Sethi. This marks Avatar Studios' first mainline TV series, alongside their upcoming Aang-centered animated movie, set for a January 30, 2026 theatrical release. In celebration of Avatar's 20th anniversary, Nickelodeon also announced new books, comics, concerts, toys, and a Roblox game.
