Avatar: The Last Airbender fans had their dreams of more content based on the beloved animated series and its sister spinoff squashed last year when the series' creators Michael DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko stepped away from a planned live-action adaptation project at Netflix last August.

But today, Nickelodeon announced that the world of Avatar and The Legend Of Korra is finally getting the content expansion that people who grew up watching the programs have been yearning for with the establishment of Avatar Studios.
