John Ellis is a former classmate of Enid and Rebecca. John prints a magazine called Mayhem, which is meant to be deliberately shocking and offensive. In the first chapter, John is preparing to print a number of digitally created images of child pornography. John obtains these pictures from Tom, a former Catholic priest. When Tom is arrested for having molested altar boys in the past, John goes on a cable talk show under an assumed name to defend Tom's actions once again for the explicit purpose of offending people. Enid believes that John's obsession with the disgusting and bizarre is no different than the tastes of most normal Americans.
