Synopsis:
Aquaman and Aqualad help a coastal town that is threatened by a tidal wave. Their water sprite friend Quisp shows up to help as well. After Quisp dispatches the wave, an island appears off the coast. Aquaman and Aqualad investigate and learn it is an alien spacecraft.

Aquaman battles the alien bandits who control the craft, but they have a powerful weapon which appears to kill Quisp. The aliens create a stone giant to threaten the nearby town with, but Aquaman lures them away by having whales push the island spacecraft out to sea. When the aliens follow, Aquaman and his fish allies stop them and take control of their weapons. Quisp has survived as well and returns in time to finish off the aliens. The aliens are then given to a group of alien scientists as prisoners, and they soon return home.
