For those itching to get a look at actual footage from the live-action effects test for a proposed Blue Beetle television series -- even before it can be unveiled next month at Comic-Con International -- here's your chance: Video-effects artist Rommel Calderon has included a snippet from the sequence in his latest demo reel.

The all-too-brief clip, which looks much better than those low-quality screencaps lead you to believe, starts at the 50-second mark. You can watch the video after the break. Geoff Johns, chief creative officer of DC Entertainment, plans to screen a longer video during Comic-Con.
