Avatar: The Last Airbender ― The Rift Library Edition
Library edition hardcovers: Materials from the original graphic novels are collected in an oversized library edition featuring notes from the creators and a sketchbook section.
This takes place when Toph holds up a collapsing Mountain above her friends.
Context: As they attempt to evacuate the workers, they are attacked by a member of the Rough Rhinos, causing a cave-in that leaves almost everyone trapped in the mine. Toph manages to save the group from being crushed to death with her earth-bending and metal-bending, but she is unable to move the vast amount of earth away from them, and Aang is unable to help her, due to large amounts of iron ore mixed in with the earth that he is unable to move with his earth-bending. The people trapped in the mine are later saved by the efforts of both Aang and Toph's metal-bending students.
GLY: "I've said before that Sokka is to Team Avatar what Hawkeye if to Marvel's Avengers-the one normal guy who hangs out with the most powerful people on the planet. Toph, then, is the team's Hulk-the mean, green fighting machine. When I was a kid, one of my favorite comic book covers was Secret Wars #4. The Hulk was buried underground with his friends, holding up, the cover copy claimed, "one hundred and fifty billion tons." Surely, if the Hulk can do something like that, so can Toph."
