Dark Horse Comics announced plans for a graphic novel series called The Legend of Korra: Turf Wars. The first of three volumes will be released in June 2017. The original story comes from a Nickelodeon cartoon series that aired for four seasons.
Here’s more from the press release: “Turf Wars begins with Korra and Asami leaving the spirit world and returning to Republic City only to find political hijinks and human vs. spirit conflict, as a pompous developer plans to turn the new spirit portal into an amusement park, potentially severing an already tumultuous connection with the spirits. In addition, the triads have realigned and are in a brutal brawl at the city’s borders where hundreds of evacuees have relocated. In order to get through it all, Korra and Asami vow to look out for each other—but first, they’ve got to get better at being a team.”
Bryan Konietzko, the co-creator and executive producer of the TV show, has agreed to serve as a consultant for this graphic novel project. Michael Dante DiMartino, who also served as both a co-creator and an executive producer, has come on board as the writer. Irene Koh will create the illustrations. Heather Campbell will design the cover art.
