[theme music]

[male narrator] Superman!

Wonder Woman!

Batman and Robin!

Aquaman!

Black Vulcan!

Samurai!

Apache Chief!

El Dorado!

Together they form the world's greatest force.

Dedicated to truth, peace and justice for all mankind!

These are the "Super Friends!"

[theme music]

[intense music]

At the Gotham Mining Corporation

in a deep coal shaft

hundreds of feet beneath the surface...

Clang

[whirring]

Frank! Hold up!

There's something in the coal!

[pulsating]

Looks like some sort of metallic sphere.

That's impossible!

There's writing on it.

Crackle

thud

Frank! You alright?

Yeah, but whatever that thing is

the Super Friends should know about it.

[male narrator] Moments later, as Batman and Superman

arrive on the scene...

Super Friends, it's down at the bottom of "L" shaft.

Don't get too close to it, it almost got me!

Don't worry, we always make it a point

to take good care of ourselves.

Just keep everyone out of the shaft until we get back.

[music continues]

It's over there, Batman.

Appears to be some kind of satellite.

There's a message on it.

The Bat-computer may be able to decipher it.

[screams]

It's electronically protected.

Not for long.

[pulsating]

Creak

This micro TV will patch directly into the Bat-computer.

[electronic voice] Symbol analysis confirmed.

The alien words translate to...

"For crimes against the galaxy."

For crimes against the galaxy?

That must be some sort of punishment device.

When I'm through with it, it won't punish anyone!

Clang

whizz whizz

[evil laugh]

Thank you, foolish earthlings.

That wasn't a device of punishment you just destroyed

it was my prison for the past billion years!

The crimes against the galaxy were mine!

[cackling]

In that case, we'll just have to put you back where you belong.

I-I, I'm losing consciousness.

Oh, I guess I forgot to mention my name

I am Sleep, Demon of the Dreamworld!

You're going to be a demon in a bottle now.

Sleep tight, Sleep.

Whirr

On the contrary, it is you who will sleep.

[cackles]

No! Mustn't... fall... asleep.

Your nightmares have just begun, my friends.

Just begun!

[cackles]

Thud thud

Uh, there's, there's something

strangely familiar about this place.

You're absolutely right, Batman.

You've both been here a thousand times.

This is the Dreamworld, where I am master of all creation!

Behold, as your innermost fears become reality!

[cackles]

Boing

Batman!

Great Gotham! That was close!

Ugh! The bricks! They're turning to dust!

[screams]

I can't believe I survived that fall.

Did you, Batman? Are you sure?

[laughs]

[growling]

Snap

Got to... hang on!

Batman, can you hear me?

Scratch scratch scratch

Batman? Great Scott!

The ground is turning into kryptonite!

Got to... get away from it!

[pulsating]

- No! - Yes.

You've got the Midas touch, Superman.

Only, everything you touch turns to kryptonite.

[cackles]

My hands, they're changing, too!

[male narrator] Later, as the invisible jet

arrives at the mine site...

Sorry, I couldn't get here sooner.

Where are Superman and Batman?

They told us to stay out of the shaft

until they got back, Wonder Woman.

But it's been five hours and they haven't returned!

If I don't report back in 15 minutes

send out a worldwide TroubAlert.

Click

Great Hera!

My telepathic senses are picking up extreme danger!

Superman and Batman are trapped in a dreamworld!

And if my senses are correct, that black mist is the entrance.

I need one volunteer sent down into the mine. Hurry!

[male narrator] Moments later, Wonder Woman prepares

for a dangerous journey into the unknown.

With the magic lasso tied around my waist

you will control my will.

In exactly five minutes, I want you to tug on the lasso

order me to wake up.

But what if you don't?

In that case, get out while you still can.

I'm falling... asleep.

- Superman! - Wonder Woman!

Save yourself, I... I'm finished.

But it's only a dream.

Not if we don't wake up, it's a living nightmare.

A dream can be controlled if you concentrate.

I'll try!

Good, now put your attention on Batman

we've got to will ourselves to him.

[growling]

No! It-it's got me!

- We did it! - Superman! Wonder Woman!

Get away while you still can!

You should've listened to your comrade.

You'll never escape the Dreamworld now!

[male 1] Wake up! Wake up!

What was that?

Please, Wonder Woman, wake up!

It's the coal miner.

Superman, Batman, grab onto me, quickly!

I... can't reach you.

No! Come back!

Wake up, please!

We've made it back.

But not for long.

I'm going to encompass the entire planet now

and put the world to sleep!

[cackles]

Superman, hurry!

We've got to get him back in his container!

No-o!

Thud

whizz whizz

- Thanks for your help. - No sweat, Wonder Woman.

I'm just glad you got Sleep back in his can.

Let's hope he'll be resting peacefully

for another billion years.

[theme music]

[wind howling]

[instrumental music]

Screech

Johnny! Didn't you see that sign back there?

This is a restricted area.

Great! That means we got it all to ourselves.

Hey, Eric, watch this table-top.

Clang

That was more like a folding chair than a table top!

Very funny! My jump was perfect.

Hey! There's something in the sand back there.

- What is it? - I don't know.

But I'm gonna find out.

Rattle

Wow! I don't believe it.

Either I've been watching too many sci-fi movies

or this looks like some sort of UFO.

Ha, I don't think we ought to be messing with this, Johnny.

Hey, man, you act like you're still on trainin' wheels.

Come on.

This is too much.

Whoa! It still runs!

Hey! What are you doin'?

I don't know, but I'm doin' it right.

Whirl whirl whirl

[rumbling]

[male narrator] Meanwhile, in Metropolis, at the Hall of Justice...

[Jayna] Uh-oh, it's the TroubAlert.

[electronic voice] Justice League priority alert.

Unidentified flying object heading 343 degrees.

Present course will intersect with Metropolis in 2.5 minutes.

Come on, Zan! We've gotta intercept it.

- Wonder Twin powers, activate! - Wonder Twin powers, activate!

Shape of a falcon!

Form of a cloud!

[Jayna] Let's go!

[male narrator] Moments later, as the alien craft approaches the city...

What a trip! This thing puts my BMX bike to shame!

[electronic voice] Alert! Alert! Alien city sighted.

2000 kilometers and closing.

Activating defense screens.

swoosh

This thing's gonna attack Metropolis!

UFO, dead ahead!

Pour on the steam, Zan.

We've only got a few moments before it reaches the city.

Whizz whizz

What on Exxor are those kids doing in there?

I don't know, but I think I maybe able

to slip in through the atmosphere seals.

[screams] Ah, it's no good

there's a force screen around it.

We've gotta stop this thing before anyone gets hurt!

Uh, I'm trying! I'm trying!

[electronic voice] Transporter ray, activated.

[both] Wonder Twin powers, deactivate!

What're you guys doin' in here?

We, uh, found it in the desert

a-a-and it just took off.

Hmm. Looks like a Wartoid ship.

Probably abandoned a few thousand years ago.

Their engineering manuals aren't in the Justice League computer.

[male narrator] Nearby, at the Metropolis Zoo...

It is a great privilege to dedicate

Metropolis Zoo's new aviary to two of our most cherished

winged citizens, Hawkman and Hawkgirl.

Flap

Thank you, Mr. Mayor. Hawkgirl and I...

Get down!

Crash

- What was that? - I don't know.

But I can assure you, we're going to find out.

[electronic voice] Alert! Alert!

Red aliens on attack course.

Stun beams, locking on.

It's Hawkman and Hawkgirl.

Cut it out, you silly computer, those are friends of mine.

[electronic voice] Return program activated.

Locking in on Wartoid coordinates.

Standby for jump through light speed in one minute.

Oh, great! if this bucket returns to the Wartoid Galaxy

we'll never get back!

Wonder Twins to Hawkman and Hawkgirl.

- Go ahead, Zan. - We're trapped in this UFO.

And it's taking off for home any second.

[Hawkman] Hang on, we'll try to break through the ship's force screen.

This electronic arrow should short it out.

Whizz

[struggling] It's no use. It won't budge.

[electronic voice] Warp drives, activated.

Light speed in 30 seconds.

Hawkman, hurry!

[Hawkman] I'm sorry, Zan, we can't get in.

It's all my fault, if I hadn't have goofed off

with the controls, we wouldn't be in this hot water.

Wait a minute! Hot water! That's it!

Hot water? Have you gone space-happy, Zan?

No, but if water gets hot enough it turns to steam

and with enough steam pressure, I can blow the hatch!

Great idea, Wonder Brother, give me a five.

- Wonder Twin powers, activate! - Wonder Twin powers, activate!

Form of steam!

Hold your ears, I'm building up pressure.

Fizz fizz

bam

Hurry! There're only a few seconds left!

Shape of a giant jelly fish.

Yeow!

Look!

[male narrator] Later, at the Hall of Justice...

I hope you guys have learnt to look before you leap

especially, in a flying saucer.

Don't worry, Hawkman, from now on, I'm sticking to my bike.

Yeah, on the ground.

And next time you come across a warning sign

just remember that the warning is for your safety

and others as well.

I know someone who hasn't learnt their lesson today.

[babbling]

Crash

I don't know, Zan, looks like

Gleek learned to obey signs, too.

[chuckles]

[theme music]

[intense music]

[male narrator] On the planet Malusia, in a neighboring solar system...

Whizz

It is ready, Algore.

I only wish there was a safer way

to dispose off the anti-hydroxyline compound.

Blast

swoosh

[male narrator] Weeks later, as a space shuttle orbits the Earth...

Those guys on the last mission sure left a mess up here.

Yeah, when we get back home, remind me

to have NASA take away their allowance.

[whirring]

Swoosh

Hey, there's a strange-looking piece of junk.

That's funny, there's no octagonal canister

on this computer-print out.

The boys back at mission control must've forgotten to list it.

Creak

[male narrator] Later, at the Hall of Justice

the Super Friends receive an urgent distress call.

[static]

Super Friends! This is... Shuttle Colony 2.

Alien organism attacking. Gyro controls destroyed.

[growling]

It's no good, Batman, their signal is shorted out.

Robin, prepare the Batrocket for immediate take off.

Let's roll.

Swoosh swoosh

swoosh

[creature growling]

Watch out, it's moving this way!

It's eating right through the metal.

The controls are dead! We're stranded.

Swoosh

The shuttle's dead ahead.

Holy space-blobs, Batman!

That alien organism is dissolving away the hull.

A couple of hundred volts should send it running.

[growling]

Thunder of Thor! It split in two!

Swoosh

Gimme the flashlight, I'll try to signal Batman.

They're sending a message.

[Batman] Out of control. Re-entering atmosphere.

Great Gotham! We've got to get them out

before their ship burns up!

Bat-harpoons One and Two ready for firing.

[Batman] Harpoons away!

Pop

Full reverse thrust, Robin!

Snap

[growling]

Quick! Out the hatch!

Black Vulcan got them out.

[gurgling]

Scratch one space shuttle.

And scratch one alien life form.

In a few moments, it'll burn up in the atmosphere.

[male narrator] But the alien life form

protected by its strange chemical structure

lands somewhere in the mid-Atlantic...

The next day, in Gotham harbor...

[growling]

- A sea monster! - It's eating the ship!

- Look out! - Ah! Move back!

[clamoring]

[dramatic music]

[male narrator] Meanwhile, at the space shuttle landing site...

The space program owes you its thanks, Super Friends.

And so do we.

Sounds like more trouble, Batman.

[electronic voice] This is Justice League computer

alien organism entering Gotham City.

But it burned up in the atmosphere.

Apparently not. We've got to hurry!

- Ah! - Ah! Look out!

[clamoring]

[growling]

- Here it comes! Look out! - Run! It's coming!

[music continues]

That's far enough, my slimy friend.

Crackle crackle

[growling]

Black Vulcan's lightning

does little more than annoy it, Batman.

Let's see how it likes a freezing blast

of liquid nitrogen.

Fizz

It worked, Batman!

Or it didn't.

Shatter

[growling]

Nothing seems to stop that blob.

There's one last chance.

Batman calling Colonel Peterson, NASA control.

[static]

Peterson here, what is it, Batman?

I need to see the television pictures your astronauts took

before the alien organism attacked the shuttle.

I'll patch them in immediately.

[Batman] That's what I'm looking for!

That canister came from the Malusian system.

The Justice League computer should be able to decipher it.

[electronic voice] Alien symbols represent the formula

of an artificial life form

created to eat chemical waste products.

Are there any known antidotes?

[electronic voice] Only once known substance will neutralize the organism.

C1 2-H22-O11 .

But that's the chemical formula for common table sugar.

Of course, by eating sugar

it'll burn it's own energy and destroy itself.

Black Vulcan, keep the blob busy until Robin and I get back.

Will do, Batman.

[male narrator] Within minutes, the dynamic duo

takes a ten-ton load of sugar back to Gotham City...

[growling]

Crackle

Great lightning! It's eating through my suit!

Target 100 yards and closing.

Release the payload, Robin!

Clang

[creature screeching]

[male narrator] Later, at the Hall of Justice...

I am deeply sorry, Super Friends.

We will try not to be so careless in the future.

If we had your substance called sugar

we would not have caused you so much trouble.

We'll be glad to send you all you need

to neutralize the rest of your chemical by-products.

However, if you develop a sweet-tooth...

Ha! Don't say we didn't warn you.

[laughing]
