With the likeness of a street
fighter in a virtual realty video game.Avatar
lights up his opponents in hand-to-hand combat
thaat is anything but mortal!With an arsenal that consists of a repertoire of lighting kicks and
thunderous blows,the colorful super-hero
demonstrates speed and power that is unheard of
even in the land of Marvel and DC
Comics!Immediately following his first appearance on Monday Night Raw back in October,Federation
fans were in a buzz over ths new sensation.Not
only did they want to know more about Avatar-who
he was and where he came from-but the question
that may have loomed the largest of all was:What
was the meaning behind his colorful
mask? You see,unlike any other normal
superhero,Avatar doesn't just wear a mask to the
ring:he CARRIES it to the squared circle.It's
only moments befor the match begins that he
positions the war garb over his face in
preparation to compete.Then,once the war is
settled,he methodiclly re-moves it from his being and walks triumphantly from the battle
zone. To date,the meaning of this rather
odd ritual remains unclear.Does the amazing
Avatar draw some kind of magical,mystical power
from the mask?Or does he simply use it as a
psychological weapon to gain the advantage over
his adversaries? As of press time,the
mystery of Avatar remains just that:however,many
critics speculate that it will only be a matter
of time before the truth unfolds!STAT TUNED!SAME

Derived from the religion of Hinduism,the meaning of Avatar translates into a "god's" coming to earth in bodily form."As mysterious as that explanation may seem,the spectacular new superstars meaning
and motives may go even well beyond that.Perhaps
even well into a dimension unknown to mortal
man.
