"NARRATOR:" "From the beginning, mankind has faced villains selfishly pursuing their dark agendas:" "Greed domination destruction." "But always rising to oppose them, have been heroes." "[TRUMPETS]" "A breed apart." "[GROWLS]" "Men and women of valor." "Selflessly leaping into the fray." "Battling for justice and protecting the innocent." "What makes a hero?" "Courage?" "Powers?" "These are the questions that would be asked about those unlikely few who stood up to the greatest threat this world ever faced." "[GRUNTS]" "[GRUNTS]" "Fall back." "We need to regroup." "Sorry, but Guy Gardner only goes down swinging." "Yeah, that's right." "You'll be telling your grandkids you were there the day Guy Gardner single-handedly fought off an army of one-eyed monsters." "Appreciate the assist, Booster." "The 31st century is now a little safer." "No thanks necessary." "It's just a great feeling to know that when Batman needs help Booster Gold's at the top of his speed dial." "You weren't the first one I called." " Number two's not bad." " You weren't the second either." "As long as you called." "SKEETS:" "You called him, sir." "I think you know the way out." "SKEETS:" "We should go before he sics the dog on us again, sir." "BOOSTER:" "Hey, what's that?" "[BATMAN SIGHS]" "An unidentified signal was first detected weeks ago." "Based on this triangulation, it's coming from Star City." "The timing corresponds with an increase in meteor strikes around the globe." "Global meteor strikes?" "A strange signal from Star City?" "This all sounds really familiar." "Today's not?" "The 3rd?" "Listen, I'm pretty sure something big happens today." "Huge, in fact." "Go on." "Details are a little fuzzy, but I think it involves a diaper truck." "Ace?" "[ACE BARKING]" "Now maybe we can find out what this all means." "No match in the database." "[GROWLS THEN BARKS]" "Could mean it's alien in origin." "Wait a second." "You read my mind, Ace." "It's..." "[ACE WHIMPERS]" "FACELESS HUNTER:" "A homing beacon lighting a path to this planet for my master." "[BATMAN GRUNTS]" "[BATMAN GRUNTING]" "[GRUNTS]" "There is no weapon in your arsenal that I cannot counter." "BATMAN:" "Then maybe I should use someone else's arsenal." "[BOTH GRUNTING]" "[ROARS]" "[BATS SCREECHING]" "FACELESS HUNTER:" "I have already subdued most of your allies." "Soon there will be no heroes left to defend Earth and Starro shall conquer it with ease." "Hey, Bats, I just remembered." "Today is the invasion." "Oh, looks like you already figured it out." "[FACELESS HUNTER GRUNTS]" "[BOTH GRUNT]" "Ew." "[GRUNTING]" "Tell your master that Earth is off-limits." "FACELESS HUNTER:" "No, Batman, your planet will fall for the Starro invasion has begun." "[PANTING]" "[MAN GRUNTS]" "ALL [CHANTING]:" "Starro lives." "Starro lives." "Starro lives." "Starro lives." "Starro lives." "Starro..." "Starro lives." "Starro lives." "Starro lives." "Starro..." "We're going to need an army of heroes." "Yeah, but who's left that doesn't have a face full of starfish?" "Only one way to find out." "I modified my communicator so only those with uncompromised synaptic responders receive the signal." "What, like a dog whistle?" "Cool." "Calling all heroes." "Calling all heroes." "Calling all heroes." "[OVER RADIO] This is Batman." "If you can hear this signal, meet me at these coordinates." "The fate of the world is at stake." "BOOSTER:" "Let me get this straight." "After scouring the globe, we got ourselves a couple of kids..." "BOTH [IN UNISON]:" "Hey!" "A gym coach..." "Science teacher." "And a?" "What?" "B'wana Beast." "How you doing?" "BOOSTER:" "This is all that's left to fight the greatest threat to humanity ever?" "Yeah, and who are you supposed to be?" "Uh, Booster Gold." "Hero of the 25th century." "Never heard of you." "Listen up." "Some of you are inexperienced naive arrogant or eccentric." "But, like it or not, we're Earth's only hope for survival." "So suck it up and put on your game faces." "Shazam!" "BOTH [IN UNISON]:" "Firestorm!" "You must have one heck of a power to pull off that look." "Allow me to demonstrate." "Uh, let's see, I'll need you and you." "[CREATURE HISSES THEN CAT YOWLS]" "I am so gonna hurk." "That was awesome." "Do it again." "[BATMAN CLEARS THROAT]" "Our mission is simple." "Disable the signal in Star City before this creature finds its way to Earth." "So here's the plan." " A kangaroo and a lizard?" " Yep." " An earthworm and a rhinoceros?" " Easy." "A dog and a slightly smaller dog?" "Heh, do you really have to ask?" "Awesome!" " We're all gonna die, aren't we?" " Pretty much." "Yeah." "[MACHINE BEEPING]" "There it is." "Starro's signal." "They're under Starro's control." "Try not to hurt them." "[ALL GRUNTING]" "Holy moly!" "Can't you turn him into foam rubber?" "Still working on our transmutation power, remember?" "Well, if we don't do something quick, he's gonna transmute us into toast." "SKEETS:" "Remember, sir, be gentle." "Yeah, I'll try to remember..." "Unh!" "Huh?" "Vixen?" "Honey, it's me, B'wany." "Your fiancé?" "[CHANTING] Starro lives." "[SHRIEKS]" "FACELESS HUNTER:" "This device has played its part." "My master's way is now clear." "Goodbye, Batman." "[GASPS]" "[GRUNTING]" "What have we here?" "Intriguing." "[ALL GRUNTING]" "Change of plans." "[GRUNTS]" "[CHANTING] Starro lives." "Starro lives." "It's like a battery." "Storing the energy in order to pass it on to Starro when he arrives." "I don't care how it works." "Just find a way to take it off." "You have the audacity to deny Starro?" "Then embrace your fate and kiss your loved ones a final goodbye." " For untold eons..." "STARRO:" "For untold eons I have roamed the cosmos conquering and devouring all who crossed my path." "Those few who resisted my will eventually succumbed." "Thus, it has been and shall ever be." " And your planet, so rich..." " And your planet, so rich with life so many heroes intoxicating." "I will be there soon." "Who will be here?" "Oh." "Well, what are we waiting for?" "[GRUNTING]" "[GRUNTS]" "[ALL SCREAM]" "[BOOSTER GRUNTS]" "BOOSTER:" "Aha!" "Diaper truck!" "Earth's off the menu." "[GRUNTING]" "We have to save them." "We have to save Vixen." "FACELESS HUNTER:" "Starro will not be stopped from claiming his prize." "Nor will I." "[ALL GRUNTING]" "[ALL SCREAM THEN GRUNT]" "Your allies have failed." "Now Starro feeds." "Hey, we're alive." "Is this?" "Foam rubber." "I transmuted the concrete just before we hit." "Way to go, Jason." "We survived, but we're no closer to stopping Starro." "The tunnel, it leads under the stadium." "We can use it to evacuate the prisoners." "SKEETS:" "But with your powers, the parasites will be drawn right to you." "Then in order to rescue the civilians..." "We'll need to be civilians." "Going into battle, virtually naked." "The toy company isn't gonna like this one bit." "[ALL GASPING]" "[BATMAN  B'WANA BEAST GRUNT]" "Why do you work with Starro?" "What do you get out of it?" "FACELESS HUNTER:" "Starro came to feed on my world." "But the people of Klaramar were not susceptible to his mind-control and would not provide him sustenance." "What Starro cannot control or devour..." "He destroys." "FACELESS HUNTER:" "A bargain was struck, and I agreed to be his herald tracking down other worlds on which the conqueror could feed." "Work with us, we can all defeat Starro together and your people will be safe." "FACELESS HUNTER:" "The prey always looks for mercy before the kill." "[DEVICE POWERS UP]" "[GRUNTS]" " This way." "Watch your step." " Show me some hustle, people." "[ALL PANTING]" "STARRO:" "He who would dare rob me of my meal shall be the next to sate my hunger." "[ALL GRUNTING]" "Skeets, suit me up." " Shaza...!" " Billy." "Hyah!" "[BATMAN GRUNTS]" "[BATMAN  B'WANA BEAST GRUNT]" "[GRUNTS]" "FACELESS HUNTER:" "I have become bored but you interest me." "Okay, I get it." "You think I'm a joke." "Join the club." "FACELESS HUNTER:" "A joke?" "No." "I've never been more impressed." "If these spores are like batteries then there's a limit to the energy they can hold." "Shazam!" "[STARRO SCREAMS]" " Didn't work." " It did." "That's how we stop him." "Shout it again." "Shazam!" "[SCREAMING]" "Shazam!" "Shazam!" "[BOTH GRUNTING]" "[STARRO'S SCREAMING CONTINUES]" "[ALL SCREAMING]" "FACELESS HUNTER:" "Master?" "It's over, Hunter." "Starro bit off more than he could chew." "FACELESS HUNTER:" "Over for Starro, Batman." "Not for me." "I have a new weapon to spread death and destruction on a scale my late master never dreamed of." "[BOTH GRUNT]" "What is this weapon?" "You." "[SCREAMING]" "[GROANS]" "BATMAN:" "B'wana Beast." "[English" " US" " SDH]"
