Avatar: The Last Airbender – Smoke and Shadow is the fourth graphic novel trilogy created as a sequel to Avatar: The Last Airbender by Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko. It takes place following the events of The Promise, The Search, and The Rift, and breaks from the title pattern established by those three graphic novels. As a close sequel to the original Avatar series, it depicts events that occur before the sequel series The Legend of Korra.
