One of my few issues with the Edgar Wright adaptation of Scott Pilgrim (if you can call it an “issue”) is how much of the source material had to be cut out to fit a two hour film.

It seems I wasn’t the only one with this issue, as late this Wednesday/early this Thursday, August 12th at midnight, [adult swim] will feature a short Scott Pilgrim animation, set during Scott’s time in high school, showcasing how he met Kim Pine, complete an appearance from Lisa Miller, who does not appear in the film.

The short runs 4 minutes in length, and even has Michael Cera voicing Scott.  The look is very adherent to O’Malley’s original work, and has me wishing that the books get re-released colored at some point.

30 seconds of the short have been released as a tease, and I’ve embedded that below.

May this be on the eventual DVD/blu-ray release.
