Today the Mystery Shack, we return to the world of Avatar to talk about what I believe to be the often overlooked reason why book 2 of the Legend of Korra falls flat for large parts of the audience (it's not the lasers, but it's also the lasers). Join me in a look at the Lord of the Rings, Elden Ring, Game of Thrones, and even The Walking Dead to examine where Korra went wrong.
