And on July 11, as the first drawing takes place in Lower Manhattan, the city of New York explodes in rage and fire.

John and his best friend, Lorraine, can never please their parents, and school is a chore. To pass the time, they play pranks on unsuspecting people, and it's during one of these pranks that they meet the “Pigman”.
