World

Also known as Michael or Mr. World

Appearance
Michael is a 23 year old British-Korean who sports a white polo shirt and a black tie with black pants. He is 165 cm tall (5'5") and has blue eyes and messy black hair. He is one of the two main characters of the story.

In Mias World, Michael is depicted as a stickman with a black tie and a black visor bar over his eyes with the word World written on it.

His human design has not been revealed in comic however it has been shown in the animatics Trumma Trumma, MPU, Alles im Griff, as well as the Turn The Lights Off MAP. The logic of the switching of designs has not been explained yet.

Personality
Michael is portrayed as a grumpy man. He seems to be easily panicked and flustered as shown with his slight blushes in the comic. He is an alcoholic and is mentioned to sometimes smoke. His general low-energy demeanor, short temper, rocky relationships and avoidance of other people indicate that he might have depression.

Relationships

 * Mia
 * Michael's niece. He doesn't seem to be too close with her. In Mogs' QnA it shows a chart on Michael's opinions on the other characters. At first he appears to dislike Mia, finding her "Annoying."


 * Lyer
 * Michael, originally fearful and weary of Lyer due to the attempted murder, seems to have grown to tolerate the creature's presence in his life. He doesn't seem pleased to be around Lyer but he doesn't mind enough to actively try to get rid of him.


 * Maria
 * Michael's sister-in-law. His relationship with her is a bit rocky as she seems to be rather disapproving of him.


 * Gillian
 * Michael’s older brother. Their relationship is a bit distant but as the comic goes on they start to reconcile with one another.


 * Becky
 * Becky is Michael's ex-girlfriend though it is not indicated why the two have broken up. There still seems to be tension between the two.

Other Facts

 * In the video Trumma trumma, the gravestone at the end of the song is theorized to be Michael's due to its date (1996-2019) fitting Michael's age of 23. The gravestone also appears on page 55.
 * Michael seems to have an estranged relationship with his parents as hinted in the animation MPU.
