Newsarama: The graphic novels, just like the show, always does a good job at adding a political undertone. We also get a peek into her childhood and the losses she experienced growing up, which was really wonderful to write. In Suki Alone we see her at her lowest point, struggling to survive the Boiling Rock prison without compromising herself. We'd never seen that side of her before, this badass warrior girl who also loves music. That was something that was really fun to do in our previous graphic novel, Toph Beifong's Metalbending Academy: Suki is a total fangirl for this band made up of the nomads from the Secret Tunnel episode. We see her as a fighter and leader of the Kyoshi Warriors, but we don't know much about her childhood or what her quirks are. Hicks: Suki's probably the member of Team Avatar we know the least about. Newsarama: Were there any layers you were able to add to Suki's character that wasn't in the show? She doesn't throw earth or water around, she can't use fire or air bending to fly – she's just good at what she does. While Sokka is all about using his wits to solve things, Suki fights benders on their own terms. It's the same reason that Sokka is one of my other favorite characters, although Suki deals with her lack of powers in a very different way. #NEW AVATAR SERIES IGN ZUKO FULL#Peter Wartman: Suki is just a normal person in a setting full of people with superhero-like powers, which is always my favorite kind of character. Hicks: I enjoyed expanding her character, digging into her past, and spotlighting her strength and resilience. Newsarama: What did you enjoy the most about working on Suki as the central character?
