[barking]

As Tusky,
the Aquaduo's pet walrus

playfully chases
a butterfly fish..



...he is unaware that he's
being pursued by a Gillman

a giant creature of the deep

half human, half fish.

[theme music]

Descending from a routine
surface patrol

Aquaman and Aqualad
are alerted to danger

by Tusky's frightened barking.

That's Tusky.
I wonder what's..

(Aquaman)
'The Gillman, chasing him.
Come on.'

Let's go, Imp.

Gallopin' guppies, Aquaman.

How are we gonna handle
that monster?

We'll put a blinder on him.

(Aquaman)
'That empty shell.'



Slow down, buster.

Great whales.
He sure is powerful.

Yes. We're going to need help.

[barking]

thud thud thud

Responding to a telepathic
summon from Aquaman

a pair of giant squids
move swiftly to his aid.

Now just take it easy,
big fella.

Aquaman.

Why did you try
to capture our walrus?

Not capture, follow.

Hoping he would lead me
to Aquaman.

- My people need your help.
- You expect us to believe?

Easy, tadpole.
Why were you looking for me?

My people need your help.
Quickly.

We've been attacked by a giant.

A mammoth marine Mastodon Man
from the lower sea.

If you don't come soon..

Sufferin' sea cows!
A Marine Mastodon.

Sounds bad.

Go on.
Lead us to your village.

There's the Mastodon Man.

(Aqualad)
Wow. Look at the size
of that monster!

roar

See how he destroys our homes.

- He's got to be stopped.
- The monster's got a Gillman.

We must break him loose.
Quick.

roar

pew pew pew

roar

Better lure him
out of this village

before he destroys more houses.

Follow me.

thud

roar

roar

We can't handle this monster
ourselves.

I'm calling for help.

With this Goliath,
we'll need plenty.

[barking]

Come on, we've got to lead him

to a different battleground.

[dramatic music]

(Aqualad)
'Here come the troops.'

Where is Tusky?

Look, there.

(Aquaman)
'Oh, no.'

As the frantic Tusky
tries to escape

the Mastodon Man extends
his trunk and inhales

causing a powerful
suction stream.

Too strong
for the hapless walrus.

(Aquaman)
'Watch out, Aqualad!'

bam

zap

zap

thud

whoosh

Get away, tadpole. Fast.

No. I'll stop him, Aquaman.

[groans]

- Where does it hurt?
- My shoulder.

[barking]

He's charging us.

'Quickly, everyone,
into that crevice.'

thud

[groans]

Easy, tadpole.
You'll be safe in here.

whoosh

Hang on, team.

'Alright, big boy.'

Here is something
to pack in your trunk.

You've got him now, Aquaman.

Let's go get him.

Stay put, tadpole.
That's an order.

'Watch him, Tusky.'

roar

Uh-oh, there it goes
like a deadly missile

'right at the village!'

[whirring]

Out of the way, Tusky.

Gotta help Aquaman.

[barking]

roar

roar

It's got Aqualad.

(Aqualad)
Stalagmites. Oh, no!

Full speed, hammerhead

before he slams the boy
down on that bed of spikes.

thud

Go, my sea elephants, go!

Help! Aquaman!

Oh. Thanks, Aquaman.

What if I get hit once more?

It's all over, tadpole.

'See? There goes the Mastodon.'

Aquaman, how can we ever
thank you and your friends?

Don't bother.
We're glad to be of service.

What will happen
to the Mastodon Man, Aquaman?

(Aquaman)
'The whales will drop him
in a deep hole'

'which leads
to the subterranean sea.'

And that's the last you'll see
of the Mastodon Man.

Look. Oh, no!

roar

Tusks and all.

Come on, team.
Let's give him the treatment.

[barking]

[laughing]

[instrumental music]

In just a moment, we'll return

with another exciting adventure
featuring a guest star

from the galaxy
of super superheroes.

(male narrator)
A scarlet costume ejects
from his ring.

And in a blur of motion,

Police scientist Barry Allen
becomes..

...the Flash,
world's fastest human.

The Flash
whose speed enables him

to drive right through
solid walls

and conquer the barriers
of time and space

in the pursuit of evildoers.

The Flash.

Scarlet Speedster for Justice!

In his laboratory workshop

on the outskirts
of Central City

the criminal scientist
Professor Crag

reaches the climax
of a fateful experiment.

You, my beauty,
are my greatest creation.

Now let's test your powers.

Now as police scientist
Barry Allen

drives through the city..

(man on radio)
'All cars, emergency. Uh-oh.'

'Giant robot reported
stalking North Countryside'

'causing mass destruction.'

[dramatic music]

Wally, meet me at North
Countryside as Kid Flash.

Triggering a secret switch
on his ring

Barry Allen releases
the crimson costume

of the Flash,
world's fastest human.

[chuckling]

I have the strength of an army.

vroom

zap

boom

This way, Kid Flash.

whoosh

[gasps]

(Kid Flash)
Yow!

Gotcha.

[laughs]
Think you can stop me?

We sure can't bring
that baby down

with our bare hands, Flash.

No, but maybe we can bowl it
over with those rocks.

I get the message.

Go go go, Flasher!

[screams]

crash

Ha! They think they are clever.

I'll show you
I'm even more clever.

zap

whoosh

[dramatic music]

[train honking]

Come on, Kid Flash!

(Flash)
Let's get this handcar moving.

[train honking]

Throw the brakes, now!

'Set for reverse direction.'

And away we go.

[train honking]

Now what, Flash?

Only one man in the world

could make
such a fantastic robot.

Professor Crag.

On target. Let's go!

A giant robot? Here?

[laughs]
Surely you don't think
I'd create such a monstrosity.

We know your shady reputation,
Crag.

We're going to search
this place.

[laughing]

(Kid Flash)
Yikes.

Oops.

[Crag laughing]

Yes. Here is your giant robot.

[laughs]
But by finding it

you have sealed your doom

'for now my robot guardians'

'will never let you
out of here alive.'

[laughs]

Now I walk to the science fair

to wreak vengeance on those

who scoffed
at my robot creation.

Look out!

Oh, boy.
How do we get past that?

Get set to streak through

during the second
they stay open.

Ready, set, go!

whoosh

- Phew.
- This way, come on.

Careful now.

slam

Great thunder.

More robots
closing in on us.

Oh, boy.

Now we may never get to Crag.

[Crag chuckling]

(Crag)
The beautiful science fair.

Soon it will be nothing
but a mass of rubble.

Our only escape
is through the wall. Let's go!

Vibrating at the speed of light

their body molecules pass

between the molecules
of the wall

leaving their structures
undisturbed.

Think we're in time
to stop Crag?

We'll know in a second.

Ha! Earth
and their man-made satellites.

A pretty place
to start my destruction.

boom

boom

Next, the world itself.

[Crag laughs]

Keep him off balance, Kid.

bam

thud

You won't get away again.

- Decoy tactics.
- Check.

- Spin those props.
- Wilco.

whirr

I'll fix you now.

Let's see you get past
this barrier.

[swooshing]

Look out, Flash.

bonk

- End of the line.
- All out.

He's all yours, gentlemen.

No trick robots
in this place, genius.

'Just a plain old cell.'

(Flash)
'But cheer up, Crag.'

Think of all the time
you'll have

to build
bigger and better robots.

Yeah, in the prison workshop.

Coming up next,
more action-packed adventures

with Aquaman,
King of the Seven Seas.

Featuring Aqualad
and Tusky the Walrus.

[neighing]

(male narrator)
On a journey to an underwater
mountain range

for a supply of rare phosphorus

Aquaman leads his group

through a maze of steep canyons

until they arrive
at the valley of glowing rocks.

This is big enough
to light Atlantis for a year.

Careful, tadpole.

'Rember, phosphorus
is poisonous to the touch.'

Okay, Storm, Imp. Get set.

Now as the Aquateam
wends its way back

to the torturous maze
of canyons

Tusky playfully chases
a lantern fish.

Suddenly, the mischievous
walrus realizes he is lost.

Meanwhile
in a sleek submarine above

Tusky's predicament is being
observed by three Bulks.

Weird, malevolent mutants.

[instrumental music]

One of them turns
to alert their commander

the Sinister Sea Scamp.

What is it, Bulk? An intruder?

A walrus. Ha!

We'll scare the daylights
out of him

with my animator beam.

zap

Aquaman, Tusky's missing.

Must have wandered off
and got lost.

Storm, Imp,
stay and guard the rock.

Let's go, tadpole.

[dramatic music]

Slithering seaweed.

A serpent made of grass.

And he's got Tusky.
Better get some lawnmowers.

[beeping]

Using his telepathic power

the Sea King summons
a school of thresher sharks.

Clear out, fast.

Aquaman, help.

Coming, minnow.

[clapping]

They've turned our animated kelp
monster into a tossed salad.

[dramatic music]

zap

(Aqualad)
Look, Aquaman, that coral.

It's coming alive.

[crackling]

Down, Storm, down.

[snarling]

bam

[barking]

[snarling]

(Aquaman)
'Tusky, help Aqualad
out of there.'

I'll hold this off
till help gets here.

[snarling]

An armada of sea creatures
respond

to the Sea King's
telepathic summons.

But this time,
they are no match

for Aquaman's adversary.

[laughs]
Look, look.

'Those fish
are hurting themselves'

'more than my coral monster.'

No good.

Only one way to destroy
that coral creature.

Let's go, school sharks.

[dramatic music]

bam

[snarling]

thud

Drat that Aquaman.

There must be some way
to get him.

Oh-oh. Look!

(Aquaman)
'A Sea Scamp.
So that's the troublemaker.'

Let's go, troops.

They're attacking me
with an army of fish.

Must think of something.
Uh, wait, I know.

I'll animate
their phosphorous rock.

zap

[crackling]

Look what's chasing Storm.

(Aquaman)
'That's phosphorous.
Stay clear of it.'

Its touch is poisonous.
I'm warning all fish.

[intense music]

Now I've got them on the run.

[chuckling]

Keep moving. Maybe we can lose
it in this maze of canyons.

There must be some way to stop
this...phosphorescent...thing.

It is phosphorous
and that's inflammable.

So I'll turn on the ignition.

Watch.

This time the King of the Sea

summons a school of stargazers.

Electric sparkplugs
of the sea.

zap

boom

That does it.
Now I'm going to destroy them.

'Run them down.'

Well, that's the end
of that animated rock.

But not the end of our troubles.
Look.

(Sea Scamp)
'Get out, you Bulks.'

'Tear them to pieces.'

Watch out for those creatures.

[neighing]

bam bam

The Scamp. He's getting away.

Bull whales and sharks,
follow me.

thud

thud

Everybody, watch out.
Move away.

boom

(Aqualad)
Well, that takes care
of the Sea Scamp.

(Aquaman)
Yes, too bad.

(Aqualad)
'Flipping flounders.'

Where did you find him?

Let me go. Let me go,
you-you-you rock thieves.

What are we gonna do with him,
Aquaman?

Take him to Atlantis.

No, no.

Where maybe his brilliant mind
can produce inventions

other than weapons
for destruction.

Good idea, Aquaman.

Okay. Let's pick up
another chunk of phosphorous

and head for home.

[neighing]
