Invincible on iTunes, MTV2, etc.

Checked out the preview clip here:

Invincible will be making an official jump from comic book to iTunes (among other outlets). I've been catching up on Invincible via TPBs and I'm really enjoying it but watching the video, I'm not entirely impressed. Trying to mash the comic panels into an animation seems to kill the flow of the story somewhat especially when everything seems to be going at a frantic pace, scenes that are meant to be drawn out are just rushed through. You lose that part of the narration. And sometimes it's hard to tell what's going on with the panels flying around. But it does kinda remind me of the old Marvel cartoons.
