    Ok, what should we do when the book comes out? Post spoilers? Or should we wait?

    I'd rather have the community agree on a course of action on this than every single noob post spoilers repeatedly.

    Well, while we are deciding, here are a few things to consider:

    1. It's not written by Mike or Bryan.

    2. It's an adaptation.

    3. According to the decription, it will be first-person narratives and the narrating character will change chapter-by-chapter.

    4. It will have a Q&A section with Mike and Bryan.

    Going by this, I'm saying no, unless the interview section contains spoilers, I don't think the book should be taken as the outcome for the battle or the shipping.

    Seriously, even if there is a ten minute make-out scene between Zuko and Katara in which they confess their undying love for each other, I'm still not going to take it as legit.

    Won't stop the noobs from posting spoilers...

    I suggest someone make a book spoiler thread now and then torture anyone else who makes a duplicate thread.

    And when I say torture, I mean go all out on them.

    Slave Labor Camp time. Gotta go...

    It's inevitable that spoilers will make their way out of that thread will soon be everywhere on this forum.

    If it were up to me I'd ban any mention of the contents of the book from the forum, I don't want the series finale of the greatest show ever made to be spoiled by some kiddy book.

    Some people may take a different stance on the issue, but this is my humble opinion.

    Note: This is the first time I've ever taken this stance on the issue of spoilers.

    I agree, I have always wanted to see and hear as many spoliers as possible, but I don't want to end to be runined.

    a few things to point out.

    1. this means spit without a source. someone's DA journal isn't exactly official.

    2. even if it's true, swasn-swan says it's being shipped tomorrow. the publication date is still the 20th.

    3. generally speaking, the avatar boards fail so hard at marking spoilers it's kind of sad. if you want to avoid spoilers, you'll have to avoid the forum altogether.

    I'm actually importing it with my comic book store account. And since I already sent the money and the list of comics then I say sarn it whoever has the book scanned PM I really don't think it's gonna have the very final, I refuse to believe it and it may be slighty interesting like Going Home Again also you may want to remember than while GHA is as far as I know completely cannonical the Bridge is not so you can take out of the book just what you like that's the reason I don't really care and i ask for the scans (Since my shipment will arrive may 21)

    What are you on about? I'm from outside the US too. I said I didn't want to get the book.

    I know and that's why I'm so concerned. If this proves to be true I'll have to leave. And that means I won't see the final 6 episodes for months!

    Wiselad posted a link earlier from Amazon that said the book was "In Stock" so I don't know...

    IMO, someone should get the book as soon as possible and read it, then said person should make a thread saying he read it, there he/she would say if the spoilers of the book do spoil the whole finale or if there are just a few mild spoiler and/or filled with the action scenes.
    If the book is filled with spoilers, anyone who wants to watch the finale on episodes, like me, should probably leave the forums until july.
    If it's not, then no problem and everyone continues waiting for july.

    even if it is NOT THE CASE, now we ready for May 20th

    plus we need at least one of us to read it even if to say "what is true, and what is not" of what many posters will
    "reveal"

    I can easily see someone playing a prank worse that the WAT ONE; and "reveal things to his or her liking"

    just imagine either a hardcore zutarian or a hardcore kataanger spreading FALSE "facts" that confirm their ship of choice, even a hardcore Tokka fan, putting that Suki dies

    I really could get on board for this thread if it weren't for the fact that Swan-Swan is entirely insane and regularly posts melodramatic Avatar blogs on DA on a rather frequent basis.

    She's a brilliant animator, but nuttier than a Christmas fruitcake.

    Is there any CREDIBLE source for this release news anywhere else?
