Aquaman,
King of the Seven Seas.

[theme music]

In the flickering light
of an underwater torch-lit cave

ancient words, unspoken
for centuries, are heard again.

[chanting in foreign language]



Now, at last,
every secret is mine.

Every curse and spell
of witchcraft

and wizardry is at my command.

[laughs]
With this,
I shall conquer Aquaman.

Then I, the Sea Sorcer

shall rule over
all the waters of the world.

[laughs]

boom

My crystal ball.

swoosh

Aquaman, appear to me at once.

Now, I conjure up
a sandstorm.

[laughs]

Aquaman, look!



The ocean bottom.

It's changing color.

swish swish swish

[theme music]

Stormin' sailfish!

'Aquaman, Aquaman!'

Over here, Aqualad.
Hold on.

Leapin' lampreys.

[zap]

[neighing]

Imp, where is Aqualad?

[neighing]

What, what happened?

I put a wall of water
around us, tadpole.

I've got more tricks for you,
Aquaman.

Look at that.

Did you see what I saw?

Yes. I wish I knew.

(man over radio)
'Relay station 7
calling Aquaman.'

- 'Relay station 7.'
- Aquaman here. Go ahead.

(man on radio)
'You won't believe this,
Aquaman.'

'But we're under attack
by a dragon.'

We're on our way.
Let's go, minnow!

[intense music]

bam

roar

bam

(Aquaman)
Look out, Aqualad!

Ah! Here comes the
fire-rescue squad I ordered.

(Aqualad)
'Blowfish! I don't get it.'

(Aquaman)
'Watch this now.'

[growling]

We've got him now. Charge!

bam

Jumpin' jellyfish!
Where'd he go?

Aquaman, it, it's magic.

Beats me. It's..

Uh-oh! Look.

'Someone's down there.'

Ah, thank Neptune.
It's you, Aquaman.

I thought it might be
the Sea Sorcer.

The Sea Sorcer?

I escaped from his magic cave.

I'm the last member
of the lost civilization

of Framistan.

I, uh..

Take it easy, old man.
You're safe now.

Aqualad, you and Tusky take him
back to Atlantis. Quickly!

I'm going to find
that magic cave.

Be careful, Aquaman.

'The Sea Sorcerer
is very dangerous'

'and very tricky.'

Don't worry.

Get going.

poof

Where'd he go, Tusky?

We've got to find him.
Come on!

[Tusky barking]

[intense music]

Now, you may watch the end
of your beloved Aquaman.

[laughs]
Destroyed by the sea itself.

'Ah! Do you see that, Aqualad?'

[laughs]
'Beautiful, beautiful.'

Aquaman, pull out, pull out.

Impossible!
Now, the final blow.

'Down, down to the razor edges
of the coral cliffs.'

Tusky, get the ball. Hurry!

No! My crystal.

crash

'Ah, you've broken
the magic spell.'

Phew! What a ride.

You'll pay dearly for this.

thud

The vines, Tusky. The vines.

Out, fast!

Aquaman, that old man

he is the Sea Sorcer.

He is, huh?

Well, look out! Scatter.

All powers of the dark furies.

Osiris, Persephone

Tartarus, witches

warlocks and devils.

Hear me, your master.

Fire, fire and ice.

'Fire and ice.'

bam bam bam

Quickly Aquaman issues
a telepathic call

for the most powerful creatures
of the deep.

And in an instant,
they respond.

crash

Now to put out the fire.

Who said fire
and water don't mix?

[screams]

- They, they're all gone.
- Yes, minnow.

Evil magic always has a way
of destroying itself.

Let's head for home.
Come on!

(male narrator)
In just a moment, we'll return

with another exciting adventure
featuring a guest star

from the galaxy
of super superheroes.

(male narrator) Carter Hall, scientific genius
from a far-off world

flies into action as Hawkman.

Winged Wonder, who with Screel

his faithful fighting mascot,
and his arsenal

of phenomenal powers
against both earthly

and interplanetary foes
and beasts.

Hawkman, the Winged Avenger.

Blasting off from planet Earth

a man's spacecraft embarks on
a faithful experimental voyage

to another world
in our solar system.

[alarm beeping]

There goes crazy saucers
circling Venus.

swoosh swoosh swoosh

Look, sir.
They're converging on us.

They've open fire.

pew pew pew

[theme music]

Now in the vast lab complex
outside Midway City

the astronauts' predicament
is observed by Hawkman

in his secret identity
of scientist Carter Hall.

Look, Professor Barnes.

Our spaceship's
being forced down.

I've got to get there fast
as Hawkman.

Hurry, Hawkman, and good luck.

Hawkman's shrill call
pans out for miles

reaching the ears of Screel,
his pet bird.

caw caw caw

Hang on, you kooky bird.

We've got a job to do.

[intense music]

Propelled by his powerful wings

Hawkman streaks up and into
his orbiting spaceship

and within seconds,
blast off into the cosmos.

Meanwhile, in the vast cavern

deep below the surface
of Venus..

Great wise one,
we bring you, Pytho-Rex

invaders from planet Earth.

Pytho-Rex is pleased.

Come on.
Lay off, you characters.

Look, prune face, whatever
your game is, cut the comedy..

[zapping]

Hey!

[grunting]

Now Pytho-Rex rules your minds.

When Pytho-Rex commands,
you obey.

(all)
Pytho-Rex commands, we obey.

At this moment,
Hawkman's flip-flap rockets

into Venus' atmosphere.

Looks as if those cats
have a real blast

cooked up for us, Screel.

[zapping]

Getting airsick, Screel?

[zapping]

caw

That's it, Screel.

Snap out of it.

'I'm gonna need your help.'

caw

Now we'll park in fixed orbit

and locate the astronauts
on the radiotron.

Now Hawkman's radiotron
in whose computer memory banks

are stored
the individual brainwaves

of the captive Earthmen

transmits powerful
tracking waves

which swiftly home in
on the hapless astronauts.

Pytho-Rex tells
of a winged Earthman

who defeated our robot saucers.

(astronaut #1)
He is called Hawkman.

(astronaut #2)
His gauntlets
possess awesome powers.

Pytho-Rex commands that
we bait a trap for him.

'Clear the cavern.'

Nothing like the handy-dandy
electro claw

for carving
through metal doors.

There! Come on, Screel.

'There they are, all alone,
except for that old character.'

Great Icarus! What have
they done to you three?

Pytho-Rex says destroy him.

zap

caw caw

Screel!

zap

Remove his gauntlets quickly.

Now bring him before Pytho-Rex.

'That he may be bathed
in the glow of the power gem.'

[laughs]

Screel, get them.

swoosh

caw caw caw

Help!

- Hawkman!
- What happened?

- What are we doing here?
- Attack! Attack!

No time to explain, fellas.
Here come the shock troops.

You run interference
for them, Screel

while I hold off the troops
with my repello rays.

caw caw caw

Destroy him.
Pytho-Rex commands it.

Tell your pal Pytho-Rex
I've got other ideas, old buddy.

[zapping]

caw caw caw

[zapping]

thud thud thud

[zapping]

Just one more job to do here.

[beeping]

Ah! The power gem of Pytho-Rex.

Activate robot-pursuit trap
quickly.

He must not leave with it.

Hurry, you guys.

Blast off, we'll cover you.

vroom

That's it, Screel,
jam their radar sights

while I clog their exhaust
with my chemo claw.

boom

boom

I don't know
the secret of this gem

but for sure that old coot
won't be able to use it

'to brainwash anyone
ever again.'

Your story sounds incredible.

Well, if Hawkman were here,
he'd confirm it.

Oh, I'm sure he would.

And I'm sure he does.

[laughs]

Coming up next

more action-packed adventures
with Aquaman

King of the Seven Seas.

Featuring Aqualad
and Tusky the Walrus.

[neighing]

(male narrator)
A strange craft
floats out of the sky

and comes to rest
on the surface of the sea.

Moments later

in an underwater valley
below the craft

two scuba divers
place a time bomb

and swim swiftly
out of the valley.

[theme music]

(male narrator) In a narrow canyon nearby,
two other divers drop a curtain

of pink plastic material.

[zapping]

This ray will make it invisible.

(male #1)
'Quick, into the globe.'

In the craft's control room,
the scuba divers report

to the sky-borne scourge
of the sea, Captain Sly.

We've set the sea-snares,
Captain Sly.

Good! The bomb should
go off any moment.

Draw Aquaman and his friends
into our invisible traps

and then goodbye, Sea King.

[laughs]

[bomb ticking]

boom

My plan worked beautifully.

'Now, that Aquaboob
and his friends'

'are moving right into my trap.'

Hold it, Aqualad.

I'll reconnoiter
the canyons alone.

'Wait here till I send for you.'

Okay, Aquaman.

Ugh!

[neighing]

It's a trap, come on.

Great whales! What hit me?

You hit it!
An invisible plastic panel.

Whoever set this trap
may be getting away.

- I'll go after him myself.
- No, Aqualad, wait.

Better follow him.

Ah! Here's something invisible.

Gallopin' guppies!

A plastic bag?

(Captain Sly)
'Ha-ha!'

'Bagged him
like a store-bought goldfish.'

Lower the grabber globe, hurry.

Uh-oh.

Great whales!
They've got Aqualad.

[neighing]

'This razor-edged clam
ought to do it.'

Up, Storm, up.

[neighs]

[intense music]

swoosh

(Captain Sly)
Blast that Aquaman.

Descend to surface.

All hands, prepare
for underwater attack.

We'll soon have lots of help,
fellas.

[beeping]

Too tight. Stand back, team.

'Maybe the swordfish
can pry open.'

No good.
Let's try another fish.

'Remoras!'

Alright.
Now pull, suckerfish. Pull!

[creaking]

There, that does it.

[whimpers]

(Aquaman)
'Good work, Tusky.'

Phew! Now I know what
an egg yolk feels like.

Let's get going, team.

[dramatic music]

Open bottom hatch.
Sea scooters, attack.

swoosh swoosh swoosh

Ah! The limpness lights
will soften them up.

Sea scooters! Scatter.

[neighing]

[zapping]

Ah! I feel like..

...a jellyfish.

Oh, no!

[zapping]

Gotta stop him.

swoosh

smack

Huh! That's better.

[zapping]

thud

[zapping]

crash

Three scooters,
10 o'clock high.

[zapping]

I'll take the lead one.

[zapping]

crash

Good work, minnow.
I'll take this scooter.

Hey, this is great fun.

Let's get Captain Sly
before he scoots.

(Captain Sly)
They're going to attack me
with my own weapons.

Raise ship.

Fire the limpness light
at the gasbag.

crash

Gonna drop
into that army of fish.

I better clear out.

Aquaman, Sly is getting away.

Duck, Aqualad.
Here comes the crab.

splash

swoosh swoosh swoosh

zap

[neighing]

(Aqualad)
'Watch out! Here come more.'

tang

That makes us even, Aquaman.

Now, let's us
do some spear-fighting.

Stop! Back!
Back to the ship. Fast!

Whoa!

Get the point, buster?

Get Tusky to watch them
until we get back.

Tusky? Where is he?

Great whales!
Maybe Captain Sly got him.

Sly rocketed into the sea,
just up ahead.

That's right, tadpole.
And he got him.

Poor Tusky.

No, poor Captain Sly. Look!

Please, be a good walrus.

Let me go.

(Aqualad)
Enough fun, Tusky.

What do we do with
the flying Sly boys, Aquaman?

They'll be grounded permanently
in a prison on the mainland.

Alright! Let's scoot for home.
