Aquaman, swift and powerful monarch of the ocean.
With ability to summon and command
all creatures of the deep.
Aquaman, who with his teenage ally, Aqualad
guards and defends all that lives in the seas
against the forces of evil.
Aquaman, King of the Seven Seas.
A frigid fog blankets the sea surface
where two mighty creatures lock in titanic battle.
A giant squid and a huge dragon beast.
Mighty waves, Aquaman!
Something's got every fish in the ocean
swimming for its life.
We've got to find out what stirred them up.
Come on, Aqualad.
Flappin' frostfish, Aquaman!
Why is it getting so co-co-cold?
Can't understand it. These are normally warm waters.
Wait. What's that ahead?
'Suffering sea snakes!'
An Ice Dragon!
That's what caused the stampede and the icy waters.
Let's go.
Thud thud
Moving at terrific speed
Aquaman creates balls of compressed water
and fires them at his huge foe.
Thud
Aquaman. He's trapped inside his own water wall.
Now, Imp!
Thanks, Tadpole.
This deep-freeze monster is too much. We need help.
From the Sea King's brain telepathic commands radiate.
Stay here, Storm.
You too, Imp.
Now, Aqualad, let's get that monster.
Look out, Aqualad!
Thud
Here he comes again.
To the surface fast.
Swoosh
Here we are, frozen face.
Thud
Yeah!
Hit the brink, Tusky.
Splash
thud
Aquaman, what now?
'Look out!'
Great gastropods!
It's turned the sea surface to ice.
Into the water, quick!
- Yipes! - I've got you, Tadpole.
Oh, no! It froze Tusky.
Trapped within the solid ice block..
...Aquaman issues a telepathic command to his loyal fish.
Splash
- Oh, boy! That feels better. - Come on, Aqualad.
Let's find that dragon before he creates more havoc.
Grab the horses, Aqualad. I'll handle Mr. Dragon.
So you wanna play rough, eh?
How's this?
Splash
splash
You did it, Aquaman.
That monster's out cold.
But... now what?
I'm taking care of that now, Minnow.
How are you gonna keep that dragon in there, Aquaman?
You'll see in a minute, Aqualad. Stand back.
As Aquaman spins at fantastic speed
creating a wall of water inside the ice cave
the stunned dragon revives.
Aquaman, watch out!
Leapin' lionfish! He's sealed himself into that iceberg.
Yes. That ought to hold him for a while.
Now, another job for the whales.
There.
The ocean current will take our dragon friend
into Arctic waters, where he'll stay in cold storage forever.
Cool, Aquaman. Real cool.
- What's that? - It's Tusky.
We forgot about him.
Thud
I'm sorry, Tusky.
Okay. Okay!
I said I'm sorry, didn't I?
In just a moment, we'll return
with another exciting adventure
featuring a guest star from the galaxy of super superhero.
Through the magic alchemy of nature's most awesome
sources of energy, Ray Palmer, atomic physicist
becomes... the Atom
a power-packed mighty mite.
Whose brilliant mind and great strength
serve law and order against crime and injustice.
Tiny Titan, scourge of evil-doers, the Atom.
A chartered plane bearing members
of Ivy University's Science Faculty
approaches a small island
on which they plan to establish a research center.
What do you think of the location, Professor Palmer?
Well, it appears to be ideal, Professor Brown, but..
...I'm puzzled by the weird plant life down there.
Now, from a high vantage point on the island
angry eyes, observe the plane's approach.
They're going to land, Strail.
No one, but no one, must discover what I'm doing here.
'They've got to be destroyed.'
As Strail flicks a switch
electronic impulses activate giant plants.
Clouds of spores, burst from their flowers
and drift with the wind.
- What happened? - Don't know.
Engine's gone haywire.
Unnoticed amid the confusion
Professor Ray Palmer activates a secret belt switch.
And in a flash, he's reduced to the tiny power packed form
of the Atom.
Must get to the engines fast.
We're starting to lose altitude.
Plant spores. So that's what causing all the trouble.
Oh! We're in a dive.
We're plunging toward the sea.
We're doomed. We're gonna be killed.
It's now or never.
There she goes.
Oh, one of the engines is working again.
Glory be!
They made it. They're landing.
Now they'll regret they ever saw this island.
I'm... suddenly... sleepy.
Brain feels numb.
Strange gas.
Can't fight it.
Ha-ha. They're all knocked out.
Now, go get them.
Sure thing, boss.
A short time later, the Atom revives
and is shocked to find himself alone.
Where's everybody gone?
So you see, gentlemen, I cannot risk
permitting you to leave this island alive.
Great electrons! They've been taken prisoner.
The world is not yet ready to learn
'of my brilliant experiments which combines'
'electronic wave patterns with plant growth.'
'Incredible.'
'But why are you keeping them'
'such a deep dark secret?'
'He-he. It's simple.'
'Because when I'm ready'
'I shall use them to gain wealth.'
'Power!'
Hey... who lifted my gun?
Someone else is in here. Find him!
What the..
It's the Atom.
Catch him, destroy him.
Head's up.
- Dig this. - Oh!
Ah.
Which way did he go?
No! I don't believe it!
You better believe it, mister.
Caught you, little man.
Now, Mr. Atom
'prepare to fight the final battle of your life.'
Ha! Think you can get past that voltage? Hmm?
Great molecules! These plants are alive.
Ha-ha-ha. Right.
But you won't be for long.
Great show, little man.
Great show.
Crash
A concentrated atomic pellet!
That's what gives these plants their life force.
Holy smokes! He destroyed them!
'Stop. Stay where you are.'
This bomb is loaded with powerful explosives.
'Take one more step and..'
Sic 'em, kitty.
Got it.
Pow pow pow
'Let me out!'
Yes, sir. Just as soon as the Coast Guard gets here.
Thank heaven for the Coast Guard.
My thanks go to the Atom.
Agreed. But how did the Atom get out of here?
Yes. And where were you, Palmer?
Gentlemen, surely you don't think I'm the Atom.
Hmm. Not very likely.
Of course not. Anyone but Professor Palmer.
'Lets go, gentlemen.'
Coming up next, more action packed adventures with Aquaman.
King of the Seven Seas.
Featuring Aqualad and Tusky the walrus.
The calm serenity of the bottom of the sea
is suddenly rocked by tremors and quakes.
Kaboom
Which create yawning chasms in the undersea floor.
In the Aquacave, his oceanographic warning system
alerts Aquaman, King of the Seven Seas.
Must be an undersea earthquake.
And.. Great guppies! Aqualad is in that sector.
Go, Storm, go.
Whoa, Imp! Feels like an earthquake.
Come on, Tusky, lets check it out.
We should be safe up here.
Sufferin' sailfish!
'Just look at those diamond drills.'
'They cut through solid rock as if it were cardboard.'
Now, deep down many miles below the sea... the Mole Men
a weird race of mutants
with a highly developed civilization
monitor the progress of their bore craft.
Sir, advanced units have penetrated into the sea.
Excellent. Alert main force to stand ready.
Pull, Tusky. Pull.
I'm trapped.
My foot's stuck.
Hope Aquaman..
...is on his way to investigate this.
Aqualad in trouble.
The crevice is snapping shut.
Unless Aquaman gets here soon, Tusky, I'm a goner.
Assessing the situation at a glance
the Sea King issues a telepathic command
to a school of blowfish.
Too late, Aquaman. This crevice is closing fast.
Grab these blowfish, Tadpole. We'll have you out in a second.
Now as the inflated blowfish
hold the line for a precious few seconds.
Aquaman dives in to extricate Aqualad's foot.
Hurry, Aquaman. Hurry!
'Up, you go.'
What in Neptune's name is that?
That's one of the strange things
that caused the earthquake, Aquaman.
'I've gotta find out just what this is.'
'Stay put, all of you.'
That was too close. I need help.
Once again the marine marvel summons an undersea ally.
Now, you're in for a shocking experience.
Bore-craft 109 destroyed.
Order Bore-craft 363 to capture him at once.
Aqualad, warn Atlantis to be alert for attack. Take off.
Check.
Welcome, water creature.
So these are remote-controlled robot ships.
- And you are? - I am Agnama.
King of the Mole Men and you are my prisoner.
Really? What do you plan to do with me?
Bring you back to our lab in the center of the Earth.
That's what you think.
'Not even the hard shell of Atlantis... can withstand'
'our diamond drills.'
Jumpin' jellyfish! It's an invasion.
Where's Aquaman?
Once this thing starts back into the Earth, I've had it.
There must be a way out.
Torpedo tubes. That's it.
I'll set it to fire in three seconds. If I'm lucky.
Now, to Atlantis.
Streaking to the rescue
Aquaman orders his sea troops
to fall in and follow him into battle.
Aquaman and the troops. Hurray!
'These things are programmed'
'to attack anything in their way.'
'So..'
They've destroyed over half the fleet.
We will lose them all.
Recall the invasion fleet.
Recall them at once.
Look, Aquaman, they're turning tail. Let's get 'em.
No, I think they've had enough.
'But, Aquaman..'
I'm calling off my fish allies.
Let 'em go.
Guess you're right.
They probably won't try anything like this again.
Not for a while anyhow.
What's that?
Thump thump
'Come on back, Tusky. The fight's over.'
