NARRATOR: Somewhere out in space live the Herculoids.

[theme music]

Zok, the laser-ray dragon!

Igoo, the giant rock ape!

Tundro, the tremendous.

Gloop and Gleep, the formless, fearless wonders!

With Zandor, their leader..

[caw]

...and his wife Tara, and son Dorno.

They team up to protect their planet

from sinister invaders.

[kaboom]

[zap]

[boom]

All strong. All brave. All heroes.

They're The Herculoids!

[theme music]

Make sure Zandor has been silenced.

Look, Dorno, it's the the Laser Lancers.

They must have tangled with the Herculoids.

Come on.

Thanks to you, Gloop. I'm okay.

[babbling]

Good ol' Gloop.

Will they come back, Zandor?

You can count on it, Tara.

[ominous music]

I expected this.

But Zandor and the Herculoids

will not stop us this time.

What are your orders, O great Maggon?

First wave of our fiercest warriors

will attack in force.

[dramatic music]

We are almost there.

Go with the plan.

[instrumental music]

We're in for the fight of our lives.

Everyone's in position, Zandor.

Good.

Igoo.

[roaring]

Tundro.

[growls]

Zok.

[caw]

Tara, Dorno. Your place is in the cave with Gleep.

Right, Zandor.

We'll wait for your orders.

[babbling]

[babbling]

You stay with me, Gloop.

Take the flames back.

They're going away.

Hurray for the Herculoids.

We've won.

You haven't won yet.

[gasps]

Yield, Zandor. You have lost!

We will never yield, Maggon.

MAGGON: Look behind you.

You see, Zandor. We planned this invasion well.

We were aware of your cave defense.

And long ago planned this strategy.

[clank]

[zap]

[rumbling]

They won't use that entrance again.

Attack!

Well done, Herculoids.

Do you think they'll come back?

With Maggon defeated, they may never return.

I hope not.

The capsule landed in the swamp, Zandor.

We must find out what's inside of it.

[dramatic music]

The prizo capsule was ejected

before aircraft exploded, Darkon.

Then we must retrieve it immediately.

And anyone who opposes us will perish.

[theme music]

It's starting to sink.

Quick, Gloop. A lasso.

[babbling]

[dramatic music]

[babbling]

[roaring]

Let's open it.

It's Princess Serena of the Sun Planet.

ZANDOR: Hurry. Help her out, Tara.

So by taking you hostage

Darkon and his faceless people thought they could

force your planet to surrender.

Yes. And they will stop at nothing to recapture me.

I see they waste no time in coming.

[intense music]

Attention, all units.

The Sun Princess is below with Zandor and his Herculoids.

Take her at all costs.

[music continues]

[swoosh]

[swoosh]

[swoosh]

[swoosh]

[roaring]

Zandor, what is it?

It's a deadly vapor field, Tara.

They're coming through the vapor field.

[music continues]

[zap]

Serena's caught in a macro beam.

Tundro! Your energy rocks.

[roaring]

[zap]

[dramatic music]

Herculoids, be on your guard.

There's no telling which way they'll attack from next.

And this time they'll be after us.

Zandor, over there.

ZANDOR: Igoo, behind you.

[growls]

[zap]

[roar]

[babbling]

[slam]

Gloop can't hold against that beam.

It's Dorno and Zok.

The beam, Zok.

[zap]

[roaring]

[slam]

Not a moment too soon, Dorno.

I'll keep a look out for more of Darkon's craft.

We're getting out of here.

Alright, Zandor.

[babbling]

[dramatic music]

So, they are escaping.

All units attention.

All units resume the attack at once.

[laughter]

While Zandor and his Herculoids fight off the attack

I will take the princess.

Zandor, more of Darkon's crafts are approaching.

We've got to stop them.

Gleep, stay close to Tara and Serena.

[babbling]

Rest of you, follow me.

Your Herculoids have defeated the faceless ones.

DARKON: But not Darkon.

And this time you will not escape me.

Gleep, the princess.

[babbling]

[zap]

TARA: You will not have her, Darkon.

DARKON: We shall see.

[zap]

Zandor, this is Darkon.

I have taken Tara prisoner.

Deliver the princess to my fortress by nightfall

or she will perish.

[whoosh]

It is almost nightfall, Zandor. I will surrender myself

so that Tara may go free.

No, Serena, Darkon will get his princess

but not the one he expected.

Darkon, we have come to exchange the princess for Tara.

A wise decision, Zandor. You may enter.

[intense music]

I will take the princess now, Zandor.

[babbling]

DARKON: I have been tricked.

[intense music]

[pow pow]

Stop them.

[zap zap zap]

They will not escape.

[slam]

ZANDOR: They cut us off.

Zandor, the floor.

There's got to be a control on the other side.

Gleep, quick.

[babbling]

[squeaking]

[intense music]

There's the exit.

Tundro, you take the right. I'll take the left.

[zap zap]

Igoo, the raft.

[roar]

[rumble]

That will seal them in.

DARKON: And I shall seal your fate, Zandor.

For there is no escape from this weapon.

I'll always be in debt to you and the Herculoids, Zandor.

We will always remember you, Serena.
