Seems that they are getting ready to amp up The Watchmen Movie for 2009, and have apparently added the animated series into iTunes.

Watchmen Motion Comics

Set in an alternate reality mirroring the United States in the 1980s, Alan Moore’s Watchmen is the only graphic novel to earn a Hugo Award, as well as a spot on Time Magazine’s list of 100 best English-language novels.
