That's fitting as Prudence Fenton (of Pee Wee's Playhouse, Liquid Television, etc.) is producing the animation with Diamond - and they have assembled an incredible array of talent to back up the comics: Eric Goldberg, Bill Plympton, Scott Ingalls, Mark Cabellero & Shamus Walsh, Bill Kroyer, Chris Prynowski, Paul Vester, Janet Perlman, Marv Newland, John Dilworth and Cordell Barker (to name but a few).
The animated bits are outstanding. You can never tell what style of animation is coming up next - cartoon cel, stop motion puppets, rotoscope, CG - and that's part of the fun of watching the show. Each segment has merit - and the show on the whole is an outstanding achievement (especially considering the short schedules the animators had to work within). I highly recommend you check it out.
