    Water: Katara - She is as good as Pakku IMO and she can bloodbend

    Earth: Toph - She is only what...12? She has already mastered Earthbending, she invented metalbending, and she can sandbend.

    Fire: Iroh - He is very experienced, and remember that huge fireball he does during the last episode? It was during the Comet but still, he's very talented.

    Air: Aang by default.

    Aye. Good to see another CM fan in the house. Yeah, I mean, Combustion Man was the only foe that the Gaang ever had to face that they simply could not take in a stand up fight. Amirite? It was simply impossible to fight him with direct attacks because his blasts just blew right through any bending they threw at him.

    Yes, Combustion Man was one of a kind

    Come to think of it, that is actually another potential storyline for a new series of Avatar - the adventures of Combustion Man! We could find out how he learned that attack,how he lost an arm and a leg, how he became an assassin, etc. It probably wouldn't fill upan entire series, but it would make for an interesting episode or two, amirite?
    Absolutely! In fact I've already suggested that: "The Combustion Man Chronicles" Yeah, there is a ton of backstory there. I read on the AvatarSpirit site that when he was younger, before he'd learned to control his powers, he accidently blew off his own arm and leg. I don't know if their source for this is official or not though.
    It's official.
    Yeah, atleast one mini-episode or something with Back Story for combustion man would be epic! how he blew up his arm, the time he bowed not to say a single word that could hurt anyone, finding the peace in his mind, the start of his hate to the avatar and his life with jun! (yeah, i just made that up, but him hating the avatar can be canon, i mean, why else would he want to kill the Gaang if he would get more money from not doing it?)

    Water-Pakku.

    Fire-My heart is telling me Azula, but my head says Ozai.

    Earth-Bumi--he knows all 85 Jing-pretty damn impressive.

    Air-Monk Pasang-he was the senior most monk, and he had a Fu Manchu.

    Life with Jun.

    Actually, I think he wanted to kill the Gaang in WAT because they had escaped him twice. Nobody had ever escaped him before and he wasn't about to let his reputation be tarnished.

    Combustion Man was a paid assasin, appointed by Zuko. But I think when Zuko called him off the mission, Combustion Man figured he was under no loyalty of Zuko, pushed him aside, and continued his attack on the Gaang.

    I can tell you why Combustion Man wanted to kill Team Avatar, and it has nothing to do with money, revenge or a sense of duty to the Fire Nation...he wanted to kill them because he is a bad mofo.

    Fire: Zuko Earith: Toph (durr. She invented a new type of bending)
    Water: Master Pakku (Master Pikacchu [yeah, I call him that]). I don't care who agrees with me.
    Air:...is that really a competition?

    Did anyone else know that "The Boulder" is voiced by Mick Foley, WWE Hardcore Legend?

    I seriously thought he was played by Randy Savage. Real trip when I found out it was Foley. Anyways;

    Water: Kuruk

    Earth: Kyoshi

    Fire: Roku

    Air: Yangchen

    I have my reasons for these select few...

    Do to my testosterone fueled interests as a young male, I recognized Mankind's (Mic Foley's) voice the minute The Boulder spoke.

    Why would you say Yangchen instead of Aang? If anything, Aang is more powerful because of his new acquired ability. He also has the help of more Avatars under his belt to help him out in the Avatar state.
