The Giant cobra!
In the year 2000,
newspapers carry the
blaring headlines,
war in the tiny
kingdom of Morabia.
Yes?
Inspector Blooper!
You calm down McGuire!
You know that haste makes waste.
Sir, there's a war!
What!
War!
Well, don't just stand
there, call out the army.
Sir the war isn't here.
It's in the tiny
country of Maravia.
Oh, well, why
didn't you say that?
I started to, but
you started to run.
McGuire, remember what I said.
Haste makes waste.
A policeman must remain calm.
Yes, I'll remember that sir.
Anyway, it's Morabia.
I have plenty to
worry about at home.
Um, rebels declare war
against the King of Morabia.
McGuire, how can
you be so stupid!
Wha--?
There's a war in Morabia!
Jim and Bob Brilliant
are there now!
But gee, I said there was a
war in the country of Morabia.
Nearly half-way around the world,
on the peninsular of Arabia,
lie the oil wells of Morabia,
and the guns of Prince
Abdul Ben-Hothead,
rebel leader against the King.
Hah, here they come!
General, I want that
entire column wiped out.
Abdul, wiping out that column,
our chances are very slim.
You mean that?
I mean that.
You must remember Abdullah,
they have Sparks and Gigantor.
I know, but I am Abdul,
the son of Ben-Hothead!
I will not give up now.
Go on!
They're on us!
Alright men, let them have it!
Rebels, lay down your arms!
Surrender in the
name of the King!
Should we surrender?
No, why should we?
Because they have
Ironman, Gigantor.
Gigantor is out!
Prince Abdul Ben-Hothead
himself has so spoken.
Not true, Abdul's
just saying that.
Gigantor!
Rebels, you
cannot beat Gigantor!
Surrender!
Fire!
It is useless, surrender!
Boy, oh boy.
Aren't they stubborn!
Jimmy, start Gigantor.
Hey, something's
moving underground!
Look, it's a giant cobra!
Come on!
Shake him off you!
You see that men!
Gigantor is nothing but a toy!
Fawful, Gigantor
must be stopped!
Now, over Dr. Flugle
is not through yet!
Fine! Fine!
Abdul!
What!
Gigantor is unbeatable!
Give up!
[Gigantor couldn't beat an egg!
See that!
Gigantor's buried in sand.
We won!
Gigantor!
Get up!
Hooray, hooray!
Hooray, hooray!
Gigantor's hurt!
Fire!
I say fire!
The cobra robot
is badly damaged.
Yes, Gigantor is more
powerful than I suspected.
This can be fixed, yes?
Um, yes, but it
could take me a week.
Aye!
Don't worry,
it'll take them time
to repair damage on Gigantor.
That's what you say!
Look Fawful, don't be flip.
Remember, I am Flugle,
the greatest scientist
the world has ever known!
I have many tricks up my sleeve.
Get it?
It's bad Jim.
The wires are cut,
connections broken.
It can be fixed, but
it'll take me time.
I never dreamed
cobras were so strong.
They're not.
That cobra was mechanical.
A robot!
Jimmy if you're right, it's
the work of Professor Flugle!
What!
Professor Flugle!
Only Professor
Flugle would dream of making
a desert robot in
the shape of a cobra.
But we thought Professor
Flugle was finished!
Well, I guess he clearly
got away the last time,
and went to work on a whole
new variety of attackers.
Dr. Brilliant, Jimmy!
Inspector Blooper's here!
The inspector?
Here?
I just received that
news, over the telephone.
See that Jim!
He must have read the
news in the newspaper,
and then flown down.
That's it!
I'll go and meet him.
There's no need to Jim.
We sent one of our fellows
in a jeep to go fetch him.
Good.
Say, is this the right way?
No, it isn't
Inspector.
What!
You, you're a rebel!
Our symbol, the
strike letter Z.
Now, I warn you not
to move Inspector.
You say the men have arrived,
with a stranger in the jeep?
Uh-hm
We have Inspector
Blooper, Professor Flugle.
Good, you know what to do.
Keep him where we can find him.
Oh, yes sir!
Is that the policeman that
always travels with Sparks?
It is.
Our men saw him at the airport,
and then they pretended
to be good guys
so they could steal him away.
But, why Abdullah?
Because, we might be
able to use him later.
Hey, Dr. Brilliant,
you know, it's a good
thing you're here,
or we'd really be stuck.
No one knows this
robot like you.
Dr. Brilliant!
Jim!
Bad news!
Inspector Blooper
has just disappeared!
What?
Terrible!
Let me out, do you hear?
Let me out!
I'm Inspector Blooper!
I'm a policemen!
So?
You can't put a
policeman in jail!
Tomorrow when the
King's men attack,
we abandon the oil wells.
What!
Abandon the oil wells!
If we withdraw,
they'll follow,
and then, we lead those stupid
generals right to our trap!
Look, the rebels
are retreating!
Go after them men!
Go!
Your majesty!
Speak, how goes
the battle boy?
Good news sire, victory.
They have abandoned the
western oil field district.
General Blunder pursues them.
Stop!
Sire, I am to blame for this.
That I, Blunder, should
fall into such a trap.
Blunder, stop it, I can't
stand to see a man cry.
General, can
you give the order
to pursue the rebels
again tomorrow?
That would be a hot one.
No, wait, I think I have
an idea that will work.
Back, come, withdraw!
They are pursuing!
So, another lesson!
Huh!
So, that's
what dug those holes.
A robot locust!
Raise me to here!
Curses, I never
dreamed that Gigantor
would be repaired so rapidly.
Fix that cobra, I want it
ready for action tomorrow!
Uh, oh, he'll lose again!
Nope, not this time he won't.
You see, we've improved the
vertical ascending rocket.
And now, wait
till you see this!
You let me out of here!
Come on Flugle!
Quit fooling around!
Let me out of here!
Now, are you going
to let me out Flugle!
Hm?
So, they're going
to get rid of me?
Get it over with.
Yeah, any last words bud?
If I had, I wouldn't
say them to you.
Blooper, you're just as mean
and ornery a cuss as ever.
Now, recognize me?
Dick Strong!
Boy, bet that was
some surprise!
Sure, I hope I'm not dreaming.
I know how to take
care of Gigantor.
How?
We've got Blooper, he's here.
To get him back, they must
give us Gigantor, see?
Huh!
Blooper's gone!
You know, it appears that
the army's advancing Fawful.
Say, do you suppose
they've discovered
our secret base Flugle?
Professor, Inspector
Blooper's gone!
He's gone!
We are wronged!
How could he escape?
Escaped?
Escaped!
That's how they discovered us!
Professor Flugle,
there must be some way
to counter-attack!
Quiet Abdul!
Now look, you'd better get out!
Get out, or they'll get you!
Moments later,
the secret entrance
to Professor Flugle's
laboratory is surrounded
by the King's army.
Hey Dick,
what brought you to Morabia?
Well, I'll tell you Sparky.
I became sort of
tired staying home,
so I got up, took a plane
down, and here I am.
What a surprise.
It's so strange seeing
Gigantor here in Morabia,
in the desert.
See that?
That statue?
That's the secret entrance.
Who would have suspected it?
No one.
Let's talk to Professor Flugle.
It's time that we persuaded
him to stop this fighting.
What a pity that such a
fine brain should be used
for the purpose
of planning evil.
I believed that my cobra robot
was the best thing in the
world, but I was wrong.
Goodbye cruel world!
Those bombs were
set by Flugle.
How do you know Doctor?
Because Jim, Professor
Flugle was a great scientist,
and a very proud man.
He thought his cobra
robot was unbeatable.
When Gigantor won,
it was too much.
The poor Professor
destroyed himself.
I think it's quite fitting
that we observe a
moment of silence.
In a castle
of a neighboring country,
Fawful plans his next move.
With rebel forces on
the verge of defeat,
something must be done.
Say, Fawful.
Quiet, I am thinking!
Oh, oh General Nice.
Look Fawful, we are ashamed.
Ashamed at what you have done.
Why sir, whatever
do you mean by that?
The rebellion in Morabia!
You were behind it!
And now the entire world
is blaming our country.
Really, but--
I want no alibis!
Don't you see you've
put our country
in a terrible position to
satisfy your own greed?
I am so sorry.
You will pay, and then
Fawful, you'll go back home.
Rebels you are under arrest,
and it pains me to say, that
includes you, Prince Abdul.
Take him men!
Prince Abdul, please
remove your gun.
And, at the royal palace.
Your majesty,
I am to blame for the rebellion.
I beg you to forgive.
Forgive?
I can't forgive.
Too many soldiers have
been injured in the battle,
and my people have suffered.
How then, can you ask
me to forgive you?
Abdul, you must pay for this,
I will pay your majesty.
But first, please forgive.
Much as I hate to punish
my own flesh and blood,
the law of our land must
be obeyed Prince Abdul.
Very well then, we are
all agreed upon our verdict.
Your majesty.
Hm?
Representing the
common people of Morabia,
we will forgive Prince
Abdul, if he will reform.
Sire, please forgive him.
We would all appreciate it.
Very well Jim,
you are persuasive.
Thank you your majesty,
and sire, I swear, from
this moment, I will be good.
Goodbye Inspector,
I regret the bad
treatment you received.
Oh, that's alright
your majesty.
Goodbye Doctor, I hope you'll
come to visit again next
year, on Freedom Day.
Thank you your majesty.
We'll come.
I hope you'll find the
Kingdom of Morabia
a happier, more peaceful
land a year from now.
I hope so your majesty.
And Jim, I know I
speak on behalf of all
the people of Morabia when
I say thank you very much.
Aw, gee-whiz, it was
nothing your majesty.
No, boy, you really
did a great deal.
Thank you great Gigantor.
Bye!
What could have
happened to Dick Strong?
Why didn't he show up?
Funny, he did say we'd
meet at the airport.
And a vanishing
act is just like him.
What has happened to Dick Strong?
What mystery lies behind
his strange disappearance?
There's plenty of action ahead,
in the next exciting
episode of--
Gigantor!
