Recap

On an oilrig in the Bermuda Sea, lava creatures scale the support pillars and attack the crew. Aquaman arrives and calls in his fellow Leaguers Wonder Woman, Superman, and Batman. The heroes drive off the first wave of creatures, but a new team of heroes arrives to help them: the Ultimen. The five heroes, Wind Dragon, Long Shadow, Shifter, Downpour, and Juice, lend their powers to the battle and the lava men are soon overwhelmed. Long Shadow is honored to be fighting with the heroes, while the others are somewhat cocky. Downpour creates a wave to seep the platform clean and Wind Dragon freezes the rest of them with arctic winds, a power he didn't know he had...

Episode Quotes
Wind Dragon: Not to worry, fellow heroes! The Ultimen are here!
Aquaman: Not them again...

Wind Dragon: Y'know, Juice, Superman was my hero when I was a lad. It's not his fault he's getting old.
Superman: Old?!?
Wind Dragon:
Old but spry, sir. Old but spry.

Shifter: Don't be afraid, Wonder Woman, it's only me, Shifter.
Wonder Woman: Any chance you could warn me before you try to drown me?

Batman: Can you make telepathic contact?
Aquaman: Do they look like fish to you?!?

Aquaman: (Wind Dragon's) certainly... earnest.
Superman: I think the word is "corny."

Downpour: When do I get to be team leader?
Wind Dragon: When your teeth sparkle like mine.

Giganta: Out of the way, Tiny.
Long Shadow: (growing giant-sized) You were saying?
Giganta: Oh poop.

Bizarro: Me do anything for woman I love! Even break her boyfriend out of jail!
Wonder Woman: And what's going to happen then?
Bizarro: Ummm....

Shifter: What'll it be, Max – drowning on a rooftop or eaten by a lion?

(Downpour blasts an unimpressed Aquaman with water)
Aquaman: King of the seas, remember?

Batman: Who are you people?
Amanda Waller: That's a national security matter. And if I were you I wouldn't probe the situation too closely... rich boy.



Cultural References
The Ultimen represent the five unique characters created for the Challenge of the SuperFriends series. Juice = Black Vulcan, Shifter = Jayna, Downpour = Zan, Wind Dragon = Samurai, and Long Shadow = Apache Chief. Their headquarters resembles the Hall of Justice. The four heroes seen here, Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, and Aquaman, were the core members of the SuperFriends. And Bizarro and Giganta were members of the Legion of Doom.
