Michelangelo is disappointed to learn that his favorite comic, Bugman, has been cancelled, but he's reminded that the real superhero exists. Which is good, as New York City comes under attack by a swarm of genetically-modified termites controlled by a mysterious new supervillain. Can Michelangelo track down Bugman in time before the city's reduced to ashes?
