Yes I have. The cartoon micro series are more like little vignettes. The animation style is similar but CGI. I'd not really compare it to the Genndy Tartakovsky series since it's not fair for to the 5 minute shorts against a 90 minute large budget movie. It stands by itself quite well and but doesn't give much deeper insight to any characters save the introduction of a new one. I'm more interested to see what they do with the series.

It also kicks off the TV show spin off.
