I think Amon is either Bumi or Kaya (probably Bumi) one of Aang's son's who were born without bending powers for some reason.

Impossible. Aang was in the avatar state when killed by Azula. meaning the avatar cycle would stop and no new avatar would be born. Avatar Roku himself said if killed while in the avatar state the cycle will cease to exist. And that would also put Amon at over 70 years old.

*my bad that was supposed to be @chosenex comment 51

Conspiricy theory time.
At the end of Book 2 in the original series, Aang was killed by a lightning strike from Azula which caused Amon to be born as the new avatar since Aang died. However, Katara revived Aang with the water from the Spirit Oasis and he was all good as new. This caused Amon to lose his ability to bend the elements, but he was still connected to the avatar spirit and had the spiritual side that Korra does not. This explains why Korra does not get the spiritual side of being an avatar and how Amon actually was able to communicate with the spirits to learn energybending.

I've seen this theory a lot of times. The main problem with it is that Aang was in his avatar state when he got killed and Roku told him that if he was killed in the avatar state, the cycle of the avatars would cease. It wasn't until Aang fought Ozai that the cycle of Avatars returned. But its a really interesting theory and I can't wait to find out who Amon is.


Also, I can't wait till Korra goes into the avatar state or talks to adult Aang, i'm so excited about this new series.

and also adult aang was drawn to look like one of the creators.

He wasn't in the avatar state... You glow just before entering the avatarstate as well as when you are in hit.. He was about to be in the avatar state but azula shot him down just before he unblocked his final chakra.

That's mean Amon is over 70, which is a no-no. There are a lot of theories going around that Amon is just using a more potent Chi-Blocking technique, as what he does and what Aang did to take away bending are different.

didn't he also touched their back?

He touched the neck as well, which is the source of bending, it has been said that it can be closed by anxiety/fear, so it could be a mental block

But Aang still had his spiritual side when he was revived so would't that automatically mean that Amon would've lost that too according to your explanation? i'm really curious about the outcome can't wait to get answers...

He'd be 70 on the dot because this takes place 70 years after the main series and the end of the earth book is only a few months before the end of the fire book. And why not.. Bumi was 112 and he was a badass.

Maybe Amon has something to do with Koh, I thought that Combustion Man from Season 3 looked like the spirit already, the forehead tattoo I mean...can't wait for next Saturdays episode =)

lets hope not.
firebenders killed his nonbender parents (supposedly at least)

AND hed have to be azulas son... and he doesnt seem insane enough.

It's just been confirmed that Zuko is alive.

YESSSS

Say whaaaaaaat? When was this confirmation?
