I enjoyed Rey’s character and Ridley’s performance thoroughly, and thinking afterward about Dave Filoni’s old mashup Avatar: The Last Airbender/Star Wars drawing from 2004/2005 when he left to run Clone Wars it certainly occurred to me that, relatively speaking, Aang is to Luke as Korra is to Rey. So I’m honored by the comparison made in this article, but I just need to clear up an old rumor that also made its way into it: J.J. Abrams *DID NOT* write on Avatar: The Last Airbender. That erroneous info is on IMDB due to some prankster from back when Lost was running at the same time as our show, and apparently it’s still up there misleading people (if anyone knows how to fix it, please do). Mike and I have never met J.J. but we did meet Damon Lindelof at the Peabody Awards in 2009 and we had a laugh about the deceitful credit. If J.J. and his co-writers were in fact inspired by Korra for Rey, that would certainly be cool, but he has no connection to the show and I don’t even know if he’s aware of it, so I’m guessing it is just a nice coincidence. But thanks to Joanna Robinson at Vanity Fair for thinking so! (There are probably some mild spoilers in the article, so be warned.) There are some other fun coincidental character similarities between The Legend of Korra and The Force Awakens, so I’m hoping Filoni—or any of you talented folks—has time for another mashup drawing. Maybe it’s already out there!
