Maybe we will...
They're not allowed to go beyond the finale...but it seems they've got pretty much free reign before it. They could have some Ursa story...have her following her son's progress during his banishment...

Looking at the rating of the Avatar comics, the top rated ones are mostly directly tied in with the flow of the series whereas for the other comics (like Danny Phantom-which seem to get better ratings) seem to have what many Avatar fans would call "filler" moments. Satisfying in themselves as stand alones but they dont add anything to your enjoyment of the series. I guess the long gap between Season 2 and 3 in Avatar is part of the reason but the fact that you dont get "Previously.." intros on most other cartoon series also helps separate Avatar from the rest of the herd.

They could have some Ursa story...have her following her son's progress during his banishment... The treatment -- or lack thereof -- given to Ursa seems to be among the greatest disappointments of the entire show, so it would be fitting for the plotholes to be sufficiently filled. We can only hope. Ursa knowing -- or, again, lack thereof; we can only speculate on her degree of knowledge -- of Zuko's banishment would be something well-worth exploring.

In my mind Ursa kept very close tabs on her baby boy...she was probably very upset when he went all Ozai-like in Ba Sing Se...for all we know Iroh was keeping her up-to-date through the White Lotus...

If you discount the White Lotus, I don't believe Ursa has any resources with which to gain information on her son. Then again, it would be very difficult for a woman of her age and beauty to be alone and manage a safe survival.

Well...she would have seen the wanted poster...from which she would have learned about the scar. And she probably had some interaction with the White Lotus. They probably helped her escape and set her up with a new identity...sort of a White Lotus witness protection program.

If Ursa was under a White Lotus witness protection, Iroh would know especially since he's one of the big shots in the organization and he'd know Zuko would want to see her again. So Iroh would have told Zuko about it once they defeated Ozai.

I think Ursa is somewhere in the Fire Nation.Ozai wanted her to be isolated.She must be very angry when she knows what Ozai did to her children.Also, she will be very proud of Zuko.

He could have pulled him aside at the little Ba Sing Se get together after they finished shredding Sokka's artistic talent...or lack thereof.

Had he known such information, he would have already told Zuko at some point before he confronted Ozai, especially if it would help him during his mental metamorphosis.
This would have saved Zuko all the trouble from having confronted his father twice about the issue, one of the times in which Ozai was most dangerous.

Iroh was travelling with Zuko...he may not have had full access to all White Lotus intel...and Ursa herself might have told him not to say anything...

Well it's pointless to have her not say anything, and Iroh did have access to the White Lotus people halfway through in the Earth Kingdom. I'd be surprised if he hadn't kept in contact with them, but the threat of the Dai Li may have prevented it.
Who knows, Ursa probably could have avoided contact for other details that we're not aware of, so your explanations would most likely work as well.

Maybe there's another secret society that takes care of Avatar descendants?
The show's not exactly the most logical story ever told...

The idea of the White Lotus aiding Ursa while in her banishment would be really interesting, but if that was the case there would be no need for Zuko to ask Ozai where she is in the last ep, and that's where it snags for me.
But if the comics do go into Ursa territory, I hope it will give more information than a "Cloaked Ursa shopping in some rundown Fire or Earth town and thinking back on a funny Young Zuko memory and wondering where he is and then changing scenes to Then-Current Zuko looking wistfully at where-ever-he-is and blah blah blah." story. ^^;
Have any of the new comics come out yet? I know a new one about Appa and Momo was added to the Nick Comics site a while back, but I haven't heard of any others being published since.
