5 Facts About Amon You DIDN'T Know!

[@TrevonFoxxx]

Amon was the scariest and most intimidating villains in the Avatar universe. He was a extremely powerful threat and I loved how everything tied together at the end. It would be so cool to see him in the Spirit world.

[@nixcapturedyourheart]

I've kind of made it a head cannon that his spirit was lost in the fog spirit

[@theking-jn8es]

Imagine being one of the best benders the avatar universe has ever seen but you are against bending.You support equal rights for benders and non benders even tho you could use your bending skills to make profit and be rich. Amon is the best “villain” in the avatar universe almost like thanos or killmonger because he was never wrong, he had good intentions with his idea but the execution was just a bit too strong.

[@jaybronx98]

Azula Amon and Zaheer are the greatest avatar villians imo

[@Jasperzac195]

These are the greatest villains: Amon: waterbender wifh blood bending Kuvira: earthbender with metal bending Azula: firebender with lightning bending Zaheer: airbender with flight bending

[@thomaselliottjohncampbell3024]

Steve Blum once again voicing a villain character does not disappoint. Two other notable roles as a villain i can think of is: Starscream(Transformers Prime) Vilgax(Ben 10 Classic and Omniverse)

[@armaggon5920]

Yep. Starscream was the best character on that show. Entertaining and menacing

[@Journeytoelelyon__777]

I wish they didn't kill him off, i felt like he couldve been a support for korra just like zaheer was for her in season 4. Regardless I hadn't been legitimately scared of a character villain for a long time and amon brought that back. Amon is probably the best villain in the show, but hes closely tied with zaheer like neck and neck. Kuvira was not too bad I never really saw her as a villain just someone tryna restore the earth kingdom and fix a lot of its mistakes that no one else had the guts to do. And I dont think we gotta talk about unalaq, he just sucked ass lol

[@deathking1019]

if Amon survived no one would be able to beat him he’d walk into a room with any other korra villian and just bloodbend his power was too over powered the only villian he couldn’t immediately beat would be Vaatu

[@Journeytoelelyon__777]

@@deathking1019 true altho it'd be hella crazy if he could bloodbend vaatu even if it was for like 2 seconds lol

[@psyrich]

The intoxicated Korra in Avatar State scared me shitless too. Like, she looks like Liu Kang zombie in Mortal Kombat Armageddon with the chains and zombie-like movements. Damn.

[@scoutgaming737]

Korra was originally supposed to have just one season, that's why they killed him. That is also the reason for the deus-ex-machina-ish bringing back of Korra's powers

[@RaquellyReacts]

Unalaq was worst simply because the threat of becoming the dark avatar and making the entire world dark. That and losing the connection to the pas avatars pissed me off, I will never forgive them for doing that. Well I guess that’s vatu really. But yeah Amon and Zaheer were really something else. Kuvira really wasn’t trying to restore the earth kingdom, she was really just a power hungry Tyrant who wanted to destroy anyone who got in her way.

[@miloslavmasar]

I think that they should actually have a non-bending villain if they ever do another Avatar series. If would be cool and contrasting to see someone who can bend 4 elements battle against someone who can't bend anything. Although idk how they could make them strong. I think they wasted their chance with Amon a lil bit

[@dogsnack6367]

Yeah agreed could be an amazing villain and would force the avatar to think and beat them differently

[@frankficcle7081]

I think technology is the way to make a nonbender stand out. Sort of like how the invention of the gun made everyone in our world stand on equal footing (At least in the old west.) This character might even brag about how for hundreds of years, bender's have had a natural advantage over nonbenders. But not anymore.

[@ravenartistofficial]

@@frankficcle7081 omg, a techno cowboy villain in the ALTA would be so lit.

[@armaggon5920]

Thinking about it

[@nateds7326]

Amon's name was taken from real life monster Amoen Goth, a Nazi Officer who oversaw the Krakow concentration camp. He reportedly was so scary that he freaked out the other Nazis in his command, who may I remind you's entire job was to syrematically kill people like farm animals. And THEY were scared of him.

[@opheliawinfrey9501]

Really? How fascinating! 😯 That makes sense

[@armaggon5920]

Imagine running into him on a street corner. In like a dark semi abandoned town.

[@austinseutter7864]

Amon was also one of the only villains to actually get away and escape the avatar,, too bad his brother committed a murder/suicide

[@khajiitimanus7432]

Hmm.... Personally, here's what I'd consider the top 10 scariest/creepiest antagonists of Avatar: 1) Koh, the Face-stealer 2) Firelord Sozin 3) Hama 4) Firelord Ozai 5) Long Feng 6) Amon the Equalist 7) Azula 8) Wan Shi Tong 9) General Iroh (before retirement) 10) Huu and the swamp vines Honorable mention to: Red Lotus members

[@psyrich]

Hama the Puppet Master is really scary because she was the first bloodbender and has been doing it since she escaped from the prison for the Southern Waterbender Tribes, if I remembered it right. And her face freaks me out big time when she revealed she's in deed a bloodbender. Her backstory is really sad tho.

[@khajiitimanus7432]

@@psyrich Yep. She still doesn't beat out Koh or Sozin, though. Heck, Ozai is _really_ close behind Hama. But that's just my personal rankings. :p

[@jaybronx98]

Huu and the swamp vines was creepy but I got the red lotus over him anyday. Especially zaheer brutally killing the earth queen and giving korra ptsd for years😭

[@khajiitimanus7432]

@@jaybronx98 The reason why the Red Lotus is an honorable mention is because there wasn't room for listing the members separately, and I wasn't gonna cheat the system with an entire group of people in one position. Otherwise, they'd still be under General Iroh I.

[@jaybronx98]

@@khajiitimanus7432 ehh that’s fair but honestly I would’ve just put zaheer if that were the case especially over the swamp guy but to each their own

[@Bouncyfreddy]

Its cool that throughout all 7 seasons in total there was a main enemy from every nation

[@winterspirit3734]

Antagonist that can't be beaten by brute force? Equalist? Amon is an anarchist really & best yes like mix of Joker & V in Avatar universe. But his end oh YEahhh

[@easter9393]

"They needed an antagonist that couldn't be beaten with brute force" Gets defeated by exposing himself in public as a waterbender for no reason, while the equalist movement just vanished from existence and is never addressed again, even though their concerns and goals haven't been resolved at all. I guess that's one way of beating an antagonist without brute force

[@CLxJames]

LOK was a dumpster fire when it came to writing / scripts

[@TrevonFoxxx]

Pretty sure there are comic tie ins and also he realized his blood bending wouldn’t work on korra, also it made sense they disbanded since the literal leader was a bender and a son of a bender and who’s brother was on a council of benders and didn’t the city elect their president who was a non bender, you have to think baby!

[@theking-jn8es]

@@TrevonFoxxx I agree with you but it’s still weird that they never brought him up again as one of the strongest if not the strongest villain in that universe. Also wouldn’t it be more impressive for the non benders if they knew a bender (one of the strongest) is supporting them.

[@controlman7490]

Bro, he was drowning and instinctively created the water spout. He wasn't thinking about possibly getting exposed, but about survival at that point.

[@jessetheanimenerd3304]

My guy did it out of instinct. Obviously he didn't want to expose himself. Granted, it was pretty lucky on Korra's part that everything worked out for her in the end. Then again, ATLA had that same problem with its finale.

[@jessetheanimenerd3304]

​@@michaelgualtieri651 I always got the opposite impression. Amon to me was a broken man who was traumatized from his abusive childhood and never got the chance to cope with his problems. He clearly believed in his goal despite lying about his true identity. If anyone's like a Nazi, Kuvira fits the bill perfectly (she even put people in camps).

[@renaldyhaen]

Number 6, Amon carries season 1. I don't like how they make Amon "suddenly" lose control of his bending. He is portrayed as a character with a plan and always chills in every condition. He is always 1-step from Avatar team. . While the Avatar team is too busy with their love triangle stories every episode. If they can make Korra learn more properly and stronger naturally. Maybe Korra vs Amon will be more satisfying to watch. . Don't forget the Avatar side, the police or Metal bender always fights equalist with metal and cable. It is a little annoying to watch. This is the reason why Amon looks scary. Because (sorry to say), most of time, the Avatar side always does stupid things over and over again.
