Loud Boy and other superheroes start acting older than their age, participating in activities such as shuffleboard and walking with canes, and try to find out why.

Loud Boy and the Freak Five have their work cut out for them when Kid-Rid plots to use Uncle Stanley's Flooggget--a machine that can fax actual objects to anywhere in the world--for evil, and the children of the world, including Daniel, have become addicted to a new video game, "Pig Planet.".

Daniel Boom, a kid with no volume control, becomes Loud Boy and fights the Kid-Rid Corporation, which has silenced the world with a machine called the Soundsucker LX.
