In the comics, the fight with the recurring villains tended to be pretty brief last maybe 1-2 pages. But now as a show, the fight's are much more drawn out and feel much more tougher to handle for the heroes. My expectations going into the show were that only certain key fights (like omni-man against the guardians) would be well animated and entertaining to watch but they knocked it out of the park not just with the rest of the fights but also the regular scenes where there isnt much action occuring.

Edit: should have expected it as well, especially since they even changed Science Dog to Seance dog instead, but it does suck we won't likely be seeing in the show the image comics super heroes who've originally made an cameo in the comic.
