Canon Beyond the Shows and Comics
The main sources of canon are of course the two animated television series and the comics. There are other sources of canon beyond those (including story content) and I'll briefly describe those here.
I) Story Content:
Escape From The Spirit World(2007)- Takes place between books two and three of avatar, and shows Aang reconnecting with his past lives and learning about the last few avatars. Originally an online game, later repacked as a motion comic for the book two dvd set.
Republic City Hustle(2013)- An LoK web series showing Mako and Bolin as kids living on the streets of Republic City. Available on book four dvds.
The Legend of Korra Video Game (2014)- Takes place in between books two and three of LoK. The main version of the game (for PS3/4, Xbox360/One and PC) is hard to obtain now because it only had a digital release and has since been pulled from online stores. Here is a thread on the subject. There is also a 3ds version, that did have a physical release, with the same story but very different gameplay.
The Rise of Kyoshi (2019)- The first of two novels that follow a young Avatar Kyoshi (the avatar preceding Aang and Roku).
II) Guidebooks:
Lost Scrolls Collection (2009)- Set of four books that adds worldbuilding information.
ATLA: Legacy (2015)- Book told from the perspective of Aang speaking to Tenzin.
LoK: An Avatar's Chronicle (2019)- Book told from the perspective of Korra after the events of LoK.
III) 'Word of God'
Loosely refers to information given to us by the creators or other crew from things like interviews, commentary for episodes, nick.com, avatar extras and other sources. Lists of Avatar Extras by book.
