Avatar Vol. 1: The High Ground (Dark Horse, 2022)

It has been over a decade since the humans were forced to leave Pandorabut now theyre returningwith an armada of heavily-armed starships! After years of peace, Jake Sully has settled down with Neytiri and raised a family, so for him, the stakes are even higher than when he first went to war against the corporate might of the RDA. During the development process of creating the four Avatar sequels, a lot of new ideas and stories were created and discussed. One such EPIC original story idea that didnt make it into the sequels was James Camerons original storyThe High Ground. Cameron shared what he had written with and it is now being adapted by award-winning author Sherri L. Smith (The Toymakers Apprentice, Orleans), and illustrated by Brazilian artist Guilherme Balbi. Avatar: The High Ground Volume 1 ventures into all-new territory in the Avatar saga, and is a direct prequel to the highly-anticipated film sequel Avatar: The Way of Water!
