The Rift is an upcoming trilogy of comic books set in the Avatar universe, which will continue the storyline established in The Search, which was itself a continuation of The Promise.

The first book in the series was released on March 5, 2014, with the second expected to follow on July 29,[1] and the third on November 18.[2] The hardcover edition will be released on February 24, 2015.[3]

Plot
The Rift will be shifting the focus back to Aang as he begins the process of creating Republic City, in contrast to The Search, which was more focused on the story of the Fire Nation Royal Family. Toph's relationship with her parents, Lao and Poppy, will also be explored to some degree,[4] with Yang wanting to give Toph, who was absent from The Search trilogy, a larger role.[5]
