Nickelodeon recently confirmed an update regarding the schedule of Legend of Korra's Book 3 through their Twitter in response to a tweet. A Korra-fan tweeted, asking them if episodes 4 & 5 will be premiering the same day. Unusually enough, Nick responded, confirming that the two episodees will be airing together.
Personally, I found it quite surprising due to the fact that Nickelodeon has had a reputation for ignoring Korra fan's and their yearning tweets for season updates. Nonetheless, it was confirmed and now we have the follwoing information in our hands: Episode 4 titled In Harms Way and episode 5 titled The Metal Clan will be airing together on Friday, July 11, 2014. Of course, their will be no new episodes for the previous week due to Independence Day in the United States. Also released by Nick was an exclusive clip from Episode 4 of Book 3:

The final installment of The Rift comic trilogy has just been announced. Avatar: The Rift Part 3 will be releasing on November 18, 2014. The comic will be written by Gene Luen Yang, illustrated by Gurihiru (a Japanese illustration studio), and published by Dark Horse Comics. The book is already available on Amazon for pre-ordering.
As of now, there aren't any plot descriptions available, but upon further update, they will be added to this page.
Free Comic Book Day (FCBD) is an internationally-recognized event in which local participating comic book shops across the world distribute free comics to anyone who comes into their stores. It is held each year on the first Saturday of May, this year's being on May 3rd.
Avatar comics have been present among the several titles offered at FCBD for the past few years. This year's comic selection of 2014 will feature, yet again, another short Avatar comic book.
Gene Luen Yang, who contributed towards The Promise, The Search and the The Rift trilogies, will be returning to work on this year's exclusive story. I was able to contact him and he provided me with a few details on the comic. He told me that Faith Erin Hicks will be joining him in the production of the comic by completing the illustrations. Yang also introduced a a little bit about the storyline as well: "It stars Suki and Sokka. We were able to incorporate some Kyoshi Warrior back story that Bryan and Mike described to us, that didn't make it into the original animated series," tells Yang to UltimateKorra.
Additionally, Dark Horse Comics (who are the publishers) even have a short description regarding the comic on their website: Sokka follows Suki as she gives a lesson in manners and encourages a young girl’s strength. The comic will be fairly short, only 10 pages long. If you are interested in picking up a free copy, you can visit your local comic book shop.
