NARRATOR: They fly on silver wings.
They fight with nerves of steel.
Partly metal, partly real, they are the SilverHawks.
Born of a time beyond time...
...they sacrificed their human bodies...
...modified to withstand the stress of...
...their long journey through space...
...to the Galaxy of Limbo.
Sent there to defend the universe...
...against the terrible Mon*Star...
...and his intergalactic mob...
Yes-Man...
...Buzz-Saw...
...Mumbo-Jumbo...
...Windhammer...
...Molecular...
...Pokerface...
...Hardware...
...and the musical madness of Melodia.
[GROWLING]
I am Mon*Star.
The SilverHawks.
Their leader, Quicksilver...
...and his companion, Tally-Hawk...
...the invincible spy satellite and interceptor.
The tough-as-nails super twins, Steelheart and Steelwill...
...true to their names in heart, soul and spirit.
Bluegrass, guitar-picking ace pilot...
...of their incredible ship, the Mirage.
And from the Planet of the Mimes, the Copper-Kidd.
Their commander, Stargazer...
...directs the team...
...from his orbiting headquarters, Hawk Haven.
The Silverhawks.
The first super-androids with the minds of men...
...and the muscles of machines.

STARGAZER [OVER RADIO]: Emergency transmission.
Galaxy of Limbo calling to Earth.
Emergency transmission.
This is Commander Stargazer to Earth.
Commander Stargazer to Earth.
Do you read me?
MAN [OVER RADIO]: We copy, Commander Stargazer.
Begin emergency transmission.
We have just had an intergalactic prison breakout...
...on Penal Planet Ten.
Penal Planet Ten?
Isn't that where you imprisoned Mon*Star?
Mon*Star has escaped.
Vamoosed. Flown the coop.
You get my drift?
Repeat, please, interference.
Repeat, please, interference.
Mon*Star is free.
Your report, please, Commander Stargazer...
...in full detail.
STARGAZER: Okay, here's what happened.
At 1300 Intergalactic Standard Time...
...on the 40th day of the year 2839...
...the Galaxy of Limbo experienced a Moon*Star burst.
This time, the Moon*Star's rays shone directly...
...into the penal planet.
You remember what those rays do to Mon*Star, don't you?
[BANGING]
Boys up there did everything they could...
...to black out the place.
But somehow, those blasted rays penetrated Mon*Star's cell.
Stop, you fool.
Let the Moon*Star shine into my cell...
...and you will be rewarded with wealth beyond wealth.
Forget it, Mon*Star.
ROBOT: We know exactly what will happen...
...if you ever see the Moon*Star again.
No, stop.
You can trust me.
[GUARD LAUGHS]
Trust you?
We remember what happened to...
...the last guard who trusted you.
Luckily, Commander Stargazer recaptured you.
Ah! Stargazer.
Heh-heh-heh. This time, you're here for good, Mon*Star.
MAN [OVER PA]: Moon*Star burst, minus 16.
[GROWLING]
[CLANGING]
MON*STAR: No.
This may be my last chance.
Moon*Star burst, minus nine.
Minus seven.
[SNARLING]
Moon*Star burst, minus five.
Yes.
Yes.
Give me your power, your energy.
Moon*Star burst, minus two.
Moon*Star burst, minus one.
Moon*Star burst, and zero.
Moon*Star of Limbo...
...give me the might, the muscle...
...the menace...
...of Mon*Star.
Stargazer!
I'm free!
Sky-Runner, old friend, it's me, your master.
I missed you.
[GROWLS]
You've grown wild...
...forgotten me.
You'll need a little persuasion.
You cannot escape the Light Star.
Together, we will terrorize...
...the Galaxy of Limbo.
MAN [OVER RADIO]: Continue transmission, Commander Stargazer.
At 1340 Intergalactic Standard Time...
...Mon*Star, universal public enemy number one...
...returned to the penal planet and freed a group...
...of the most dangerous criminals...
...in this or any other galaxy.
You getting all of this, or am I just talking to myself?
Transmit visual material, please.
Okay, here we go. I'm gonna show you the whole mob.
STARGAZER: Number one, Molecular, master of disguise.
He can assume any shape, any form.
He is Mon*Star's undercover guy.
[ROARS]
The female, Melodia, mistress of evil notes.
Her musical power has shattering consequences.
Here is Mumbo-Jumbo, the strongman of the mob.
Hardware, Mon*Star's weapons man.
And Windhammer, the storm master...
...with that blasted tuning fork of his.
And that's just for openers.
Commander Stargazer to Earth, we could use some help up here.
We could use some help up here.
NARRATOR: Back on Earth, plans were taking shape.
A unique team would be formed...
...and sent to the Galaxy of Limbo...
...to aid Commander Stargazer.
-Good morning, general. -Morning, professor.
Data on our volunteers for the mission to Commander Stargazer.
Well, let's take a look at it on the holograph projector.
GENERAL: He's the leader, Jonathan Quick.
Former head of Federal Interplanetary Force 8.
His Hawk code name: Quicksilver.
Emily Heart and Will Heart, the twins.
They're technicians, designers, and both strong as all get-out.
When one twin feels something, so does the other.
Their Hawk code names: Steelheart and Steelwill.
Here's a volunteer from the Planet of the Mimes.
A mathematical genius.
He'll be known as the Copper-Kidd.
PROFESSOR: This can't be right. He looks like a cowboy.
GENERAL: That cowboy's a colonel and the best pilot in the solar system.
We'll call him Bluegrass.
-I'm impressed, general. -Hm.
It seems a shame we can't send them up...
...to Commander Stargazer as they are.
One day, we'll be able to send an ordinary person...
...100 light years into space, general...
...but right now, we can only send one...
...who is partly metal and partly real.
Well, have you completed their modifications?
We're checking them now.
All the sensors are attached, professor. We're ready.
Commence Silverhawks check run.
-Shoulder jets. ASSISTANT: Operative.
PROFESSOR: Arm jets. ASSISTANT: Affirmative.
PROFESSOR: Heel jets. ASSISTANT: All in order.
PROFESSOR: Talons. ASSISTANT: Yes.
PROFESSOR: Wings. ASSISTANT: In perfect order.
PROFESSOR: Left hands. ASSISTANT: Normal.
PROFESSOR: Heads. ASSISTANT: Normal.
PROFESSOR: Hearts.
Negative readout on the fourth and fifth hearts.
-What's happening? ASSISTANT: It's the twins.
Ah, it seems we have a problem with their real hearts, general.
We'll have to fit mechanical ones.
GENERAL: How will the twins operate without real hearts?
[CHUCKLES] They'll be fine, general.
Heh-heh-heh. Now their code names really fit.
Steelheart and Steelwill. Perfect.
Let's hope our Silverhawks live up to their promise.
Well, we'll soon find out, general.
Silverhawks, stand by.
I hope your man can handle that machine.
It's our latest fighter, the Mirage.
Don't worry, Bluegrass can handle anything with wings.
You'd better be right, general, because if you're not...
...our remote-controlled combat drone will find him out.
BLUEGRASS: Silverhawks, sound off.
-One. -Two.
-Sound off. -Three.
[WHISTLES]
BLUEGRASS: Prepare to launch.
Release.
Release.
Release.
[WHISTLES]
BLUEGRASS: Silverhawks....
Wing it.
Peel off.
Cluster.
Uh-oh. Scatter.
Combat drone at 3:00.
Now we'll see what your Silverhawks are made of.
Dive.
Alright.
Let's show them the Hotseat in action.
Time to give the Mirage Effect a look-see.
I'm impressed, general.
That's brand-new stuff.
First time it's been tried.
PROFESSOR: Well, gentlemen, there they are, the Silverhawks.
Your Silverhawks have done you proud, gentlemen.
GENERAL: Let just hope they impress Mon*Star...
...and his mob as much as they have you, sir.
Professor, you've outdone yourself.
When is blastoff for Limbo?
Tomorrow morning, general, 0800.
Very well, then. Good flying, Silverhawks.
[COPPER-KIDD WHISTLING]
BLUEGRASS: Well, you look like you're enjoying yourself, Kidd.
-You wanna be a space pilot? -You bet.
Well, it's one thing to learn how to fly the Mirage...
...it's another thing to navigate through space.
So the first thing you gotta do is know your way...
...around the universe.
What say we start with Earth and its solar system?
Suits me.
BLUEGRASS: Alright, take a look at this.
Now, I'm gonna ask you two questions.
You score points for each one you get right...
...and the better you do...
...the quicker you'll learn to fly the Mirage.
Okay?
Okay, now, three points if you can name this planet...
...the third one out from the sun.
COPPER-KIDD: Earth. -Earth. Hey, that's right.
You got it. Three points. That's pretty good, Kidd.
Now, here's the second and last question for today.
It's worth three points.
So tell me, what is the nearest planet to the sun?
COPPER-KIDD: Mercury.
BLUEGRASS: Mercury. Alright, Kidd.
That's three points. And that's six for six.
Not bad for a kid from another galaxy.
Thanks.
I tell you what we do, when we get to Limbo...
...there's a simulator up there on Hawk Haven.
I'll teach you all there is to know about the universe...
...and if you score high enough, you qualify for flight training.
-Is it a deal? -Deal.
