Michaela Buxton

*"I Want Answers!"*

- Michaela, to "Santa Claus," 12/22/17

**Michaela "Micha" Buxton** (born June 14, 2013, see "Birthday" below), is the daughter of Roy and Charlene Buxton and the older sister of Gabby.

## First Appearance

* April 26, 2017 (cameo)
* May 4, 2017 (formal introduction)

## Relatives

* Roy Buxton (father)
* Charlene Buxton (mother)
* Gabby Buxton (sister)

## Biography

### Birthday

Michaela's birthday has been confirmed as June 14 on one occasion, giving her the Gemini star sign.

Her age has been listed as 3 on the "About In Security" page on GoComics.com since *in SECURITY* launched in January 2017, the start of the series. Though not strictly on a one-to-one basis, time in the series passes roughly the same as in the real world. Based on these factors, her birthdate is June 14, 2013.

It should be noted that it is more difficult to tell if Michaela is aging within the series as she and Gabby both appear to be about the same age in 2021 as they did in 2017.

## Background information

* Official description from the "About" page for *in SECURITY* on GoComics.com: Roy and Charlene’s eldest. She is gabby, indeed, and the reason for Roy and Charlene’s shotgun wedding.

## Trivia

* One of Michaela's goals is to compete in "The World Olympiciz of Hide'n'Seeks" and set a "super record" thus proving her "unique worth", a desire expressed on 6/26/17.
* What does Michaela want from Santa in 2017? "Answers.". All-but-demanded on 12/22/17.

Christmas Dalek

## First Appearance

* December 4, 2017 (Shown)
* December 5, 2017 (Identified as such)

## History

Sedine's derisive nickname for her "Magical Elf" Costume, as its profile is strikingly similar to the silhouette of the classic *Doctor Who* monsters of the same name.

The costume appears to have certain undefined mystic properties, as it noticeably reduces Sedine's height, and may possess a pocket which functions as a Bag of holding, as Sedine is able to produce a stopwatch seemingly upon command.

*This page is about Hank and Ellie Durum's son Al. For the persona used by Ellie before she was married, see El.*
**Al Durum** is the son of Hank and Ellie Durum. Hank had traveled to Las Vegas, Nevada to visit the NFU Hall of Fame with his friend "Al", whom he thought was male but was in fact Ellie Gardner in disguise. Frustrated with the lack of progress in getting Hank to respond to her advances, she cornered him in his hotel room. Hank tried to divert Al's attention, but she was persistent. It took removing her wig and the breast-flattening shirt before Hank realized the his friend "Al" and his true love Ellie were one in the same. They spent their remaining time in Las Vegas in the room.

After returning home, Hank moved in with Ellie, and a few weeks later, Ellie announced she was pregnant. A wedding was shortly arranged.

National Football Union

The **National Football Union** (NFU) is an American football sporting organization. The game that determines a season's champion team is called the "Supper Bowl". The current Supper Bowl is #LVI (56).

## Teams

The total number of teams is not currently known. It is likely 32, given there are 32 teams in the NFL and Albert Ross's goal is to earn 32 Supper Bowl championship rings before retiring. Whether those rings are from different teams or whether he's played for the same team more than once is not known.

The teams include:

* Dakota Diners
* San Diego Skippers
* New England Patriots (referenced 10/5/2019)
* Tennessee Tantrums (referenced 8/26/2021)
* Cleveland Browns (mentioned as "the Browns" on 8/1/2021 and fully identified on 2/25/2022)
* the Cowboys (Dallas Cowboys, mentioned 3/28/2022)
* the Saints (New Orleans Saints, mentioned on 2/24/2022)
* a team located in Cognito, NC (referenced 8/31/2021)
* a team located in N. Cognito (referenced 8/31/2021)
* a team located in C. Ognito Bros (referenced 8/31/2021)
* a team located in Buffalo, NY (referenced 8/31/2021)
* a team located in Cinncinatti, OH (spelling shown as is, referenced 8/31/2021)
* a team located in Greenbay (Green Bay Packers, referenced 8/31/2021)

Former teams:

* Minnesota Vikings. Disbanded in 2016 and was replaced by the Dakota Diners after the entire Vikings team refused to get out of bed one morning (referenced 10/8/2019 and 8/14/2021).

## Honorees

Exceptional athletes that have played in the NFU are honored at the Football Hall of Shamelessness, located in Las Vegas, Nevada.

## Background information

* The National Football Union and the Supper Bowl are a parody of the National Football League and its Super Bowl. The Super Bowl played on February 13, 2022 is also #LVI.
* As shown above, the NFU consists of existing real-world teams and new teams introduced in *in SECURITY*.
* Unlike the NFL, which typically reserves the front of players' uniforms for the team name or a small logo, uniforms for NFU teams often have the player's last name on the front and back, leaving team identification to the design of the uniforms.

Hum Dingers

*"Whoa!! We've gotta go here! They've got a special!"*

— Sedine, upon sighting a Hum Dingers restaurant.

## History

Apparently part of a national franchise, the local Knightville Hum Dingers includes a drive-through window, and is staffed by at least one employee, who takes orders over the intercom.

## Hidden Menu

Hum Dingers has a "hidden menu item" which is "95% off for Elites" and requires a "secret, elite, trigger phrase" broadcast on late-night radio to purchase: Ordered by Sedine on 8/1/17.

In addition to the "secret, elite, trigger phrase", secret hand gestures are also required to access the Hum Dingers hidden menu item, a fact of which Sedine becomes all-too-painfully aware on 8/2/17.

## Ordering Instructions

The "secret, elite, trigger phrase" to acquire the "Secret Soul Stealin' Illuminati Meal Deal" includes the following:

* *"Novus Ordum, Begone Boredom!!"*
* *"Hello Humdinger-Schwinger-Winger-Soul-Stealin'-95% Peanut Squealin' Meal-Dealin'!!!"*
* *"Woo!!!"*
* *"Hidden Eye for Da Hungry Guy!!"*
* *"Spooky-Secret Illuminati Sign!!!"*
* *"Enlighten my Humdinger-Schwinger-Winger-Soul-Stealin'-Peanut-Squealin' Meal Deal."*
* *"... Please!!"*

Funky Podunkis

*"Whoa!!! These were discontinued when I was 6! A true relic!"*

- Sedine, upon stumbling across a misplaced box of Funky Podunkis.

## History

"Funky Podunkis" was a popular breakfast cereal, discontinued approximately twenty years ago.

## Cereal Premiums

Each box contained a prize, usually the same "Default Toy."

The "Rare Prize" - presumably a unique, one-of-a-kind item - was reportedly never found.
The Duplex

*"Okay, let's clean the other half of our house for a renter's appointment."*

- Sam, as he and Sedine make the unit presentable.

*"Yay! Money!! Renting sounds so great!!"*

- Sedine, upon the realization that renting out said space could earn them monetary compensation.

## History

The Duplex is a two family home owned by Sam and Sedine Kilgarriff, purchased with funds loaned to them by Sedine's parents, and located in the suburbs of Knightville, ND. The right side of the Duplex is rented to their tenant, Ellie, while they occupy the left side of the building.

Sedine had briefly flirted with the notion to "knock down the walls" and convert the entirety of the building into "a giant love castle," but more pragmatic economic concerns prevailed.

The Duplex faces north, as evidence by the January 10, 2018 comic where Roy Buxton has just returned from work and the sun is rising behind him. Roy and his family live across the street from the Kilgarriffs.

## Architectural Features

* Brick facade
* Forced air heating with floor-mounted vents
* Wall-To-Wall Carpeting
* Architectural moldings

## Occupants

* Sam
* Sedine
* Ellie
* Sir Pinky-Paw III von Cuteland am Rhein

Chix-n-Wings (restaurant)

*This page is about the restaurant. For the story arc about it, see Chix-n-Wings.*.

*"How 'bout Chix-n-Wings ... I hear it's good."*

- Roy, suggesting a restaurant where he and Sam can be served in an hour or less.

*"In that case, I'm coming!"*

- Hank Hubble "The Hubbs" Durum, inviting himself along.

## First Appearance

* March 12, 2018 (Mentioned.)
* March 13, 2018 (First On-Camera Appearance.)

## History

"Chix-n-Wings" is a local restaurant - possibly part of a national chain - specializing in chicken, located near the building where Sam, Roy and "The Hubbs" work, presumably in the greater Knightville area: Ellie is employed there as a server, and waits tables.

Though Chix-n-Wings does not accept reservations, "The Hubbs" is able to secure seating by "Making himself look big", which intimidates a pair of random diners into surrendering their booth.

## Uniforms

"Chix-n-Wings" servers wear signature uniforms which appear to borrow design cues from Roller derby - including knee and elbow pads - as well as from the Victoria's Secret "Angels" advertising campaign, in that a set of small "wings" designed to resemble the company logo is worn affixed to the server's back: The use of such elements constitutes a marketing technique known as "branding".

Additional placement of the logo can be found on the front of the server's tank top, and on their waist sash as well.

### Inspirations

To a degree, the concept of such themed uniforms can be dated to the car hops of the 1950's, and the later Playboy Bunnies of the 1960-90's, as well as the more recent Hooters Girls.

The cuffed denim "Short Shorts" are a callback to "Daisy Dukes", a style of shorts popularized by actress Catherine Bach in the 1970-80's television series *The Dukes of Hazzard* while the uniform's legwarmers are evocative of the then-contemporary "aerobics craze," as epitomized by the Olivia Newton-John music video, "Get Physical", the Canadian-produced television fitness series *20 Minute Workout*, and the films *Perfect* and *Flashdance*.

In addition, the ensemble appears to include 70's "Disco"-era platform shoes - to accentuate the wearer's height - along with thigh-high stockings, a fashion staple of the 1990's.

Accessories include a fingerless pera-length glove worn on the left arm, along with a bracelet for the left wrist, and a necklace, possibly made from strung together chicken beaks.
Book 4

***Book 4*** (placeholder name for now) will be the fourth book of *in SECURITY* comic strips. It will cover the comics released starting in February 2021 though TBA

## Background information

* The book was announced during a Twitch livestream on March 12, 2022. It will have approximately 500 page and will be published sometime after the Supper Bowl saga concludes in September 2022.
Gabby Buxton

*"Nailed it!!!"*

- Gabby, commenting on her father's commentary.

**Gabriella "Gabby" Buxton** (born August 6, 2015, see "Birthday" below) is Roy and Charlene Buxton's second child, with her sister being Michaela. She is a toddler but is very smart.

## First Appearance

* March 27, 2017 (mistaken for "Satan" by Sedine)

## Known Aliases

* Nun Grumpy Girl
* Gabster
* Gabfield

## Relatives

* Roy Buxton (father)
* Charlene Buxton (mother)
* Michaela Buxton (sister)

## Biography

### Birthday

Michaela's birthday has been confirmed as August 6 on one occasion, giving her the Gemini star sign.

Her age has been listed as 1.5 on the "About In Security" page on GoComics.com since *in SECURITY* launched in January 2017, the start of the series. Though not strictly on a one-to-one basis, time in the series passes roughly the same as in the real world. Based on these factors, the fact that Sedine celebrated her 24th birthday in jail on January 6, 2018 and allowing for rounding up the five months between August and January to .5 years instead of .42, Gabby's birthdate is August 6, 2015.

It should be noted that it is more difficult to tell if Gabby is aging within the series as she and Michaela both appear to be about the same age in 2021 as they did in 2017.

## Background information

* Official description from the "About" page for *in SECURITY* on GoComics.com: Roy and Charlene’s youngest. Gabby by name, but not by nature; Gabby is a stone-faced and disapproving youth.

Off the Air

***Off the Air*** is an American-exclusive psychedelic anthology television series for Cartoon Network's late-night programming block Adult Swim (stylized as [adult swim] or [as]). The show was created by Dave Hughes who was originally a television editor for MTV Animation. His effort for *Beavis and Butt-head*, *Cartoon Sushi* and *Celebrity Deathmatch* pushed him further into working for Nickelodeon. However, this career did not suit him and, once he received a call to help edit *Space Ghost Coast to Ghost* on Adult Swim, did so, giving him a new career at the block's production studio Williams Street ever since. He wanted to create an anthology series for the block but did not know if he would create it. There were many inspirations for his idea, including *120 Minutes*, *Concrete TV*, *Night Flight* and, most notably, *Liquid Television* of MTV. In 2005, Dave Hughes created his own company entitled Million Monkeys Inc. and had produced the music video for Dan Deacon's song "Okie Dokie" of the album *Spiderman and the Rings*. At last, he created a video mixtape for Mike Lazzo on Adult Swim's 2010 Carnival Tour event that gave him the chance to create his own show. *Off the Air* premiered unannounced on New Year's Day 2011 at 4AM then rerun once again. Every episode has a timeslot of 4AM, which means it is rather elusive among viewers. However, it has received positive reviews from critics. Most featured videos in episodes are either viral videos on YouTube or Staff Picks on Vimeo. the series has aired seven seasons, twenty-seven episodes and three specials.

Clo-Chi

*"Oh, boy! What is this thing?"*

- Sam, upon taking delivery of the packaged and wrapped Clo-Chi.

*"It's ... my soul ... personified!"*

- Sedine, upon being reunited with Clo-Chi.

## First Appearance

* February 12, 2018 (Packaged and Wrapped.)
* February 13, 2018 (Single Eye Only.)
* February 14, 2018 (Full Reveal.)

Succeeded by: Clo-Chi Super II

## History

"Clo-Chi" was a Clown-Chimp Statue which had been sculpted from clay while in high school by Sedine: It has been said to represent a literal portrayal of Sedine's "teenage soul".

Sedine describes the statue as "My greatest achievement" and "Truth Incarnate", a physical expression of her deepest thoughts and "high school essence".

It resided with Sedine's parents till being sent by express delivery to The Duplex, Sedine's Mother informing Sam by telephone, "We don't want it in our house!!!"

## Critical Reception

Close proximity to Clo-Chi induces a variety of profound effects upon Sedine's friends and family, primarily fear, apprehension, and occasionally embarrassment, this last most notable in Sam, who at first tries to hide any association with the sculpture as much as possible.

Unfortunately, Sedine feels that "Clo-Chi Belongs To The World" and "Everyone must see my all-time masterpiece", and sets out to display the item prominently in their home.

Briefly placing the sculpture at their front window, it engages in an impromptu staring contest with Gabby Buxton, who describes it as a "demon" and declares victory.

Later, to Sedine's delight, Sam moves Clo-Chi near the front door, where it will be immediately seen by anyone who should enter their abode, though it will be less visible to random passers-by.

Ellie's initial reaction to Clo-Chi is nothing short of a panic attack, declaring that the clown-chimp "wants to kill ... my soul!!!"

Apparently alerted to Clo-Chi's presence by Gabby, the rest of the Buxton family later arrive at The Duplex: When Michaela describes the statue as "creepy", Roy advises her, "Don't look into its eyes, or ... you'll turn into lil' Sedine", while career photographer Charlene - camera in tow - snaps pictures, proclaiming, "I never took a photo of someone's soul!!!"

Recognizing Sam's distress, Michaela entreats her "Monster-Hunter" father Roy to "Save them!!!"

## "A Cry For Help, A Desperate Plight ..."

Regrouping at the Buxton Residence, Roy, Charlene and Ellie discuss the Clown-Chimp statue, with Charlene arriving at the epiphany that "It is so strange it ... it ... must be destroyed."

Working as a unit, Ellie successfully removes Clo-Chi from the duplex while Charlene documents their efforts, with Roy ultimately demolishing the statue by running over it with his lawnmower, much to Sedine's distress.

## Death and Rebirth

As Sam, Ellie, Roy and Charlene toast their victory, Sedine briefly mourns her lost soul, then vows to rebuild, "Better ... Stronger ... Faster!!"

## Legacy

VTX-20 "Buona Vista" Railgun

Accurate up to... how far again?

*The **VTX-20 "Buona Vista" Railgun** is a firearm used by VOTE-X Abrams as one of his custom made personal weapons he uses in combat.*

## Design

*The VTX-20 is a relatively large rifle style weapon with an alumnium chassis and features a thumbhole grip stock and an intergrated front mounted grip. The barrel of the weapon features a large retangular muzzle break as well as advanced recoil compensating systems.*

## Functionality

*The VTX-20 fires custom made ammunition, the caseless 20x120mm VTXAP round. This custom made round is designed to reduce the overall weight of the cartridge significantly as well as to assist in propelling the projectile. Which with a mix of traditional gunpowder based propellant from the caseless ammunition and the use of powerful electromagnetic forces, it is capable of firing a projectile with a velocity of 4 miles per second (6 KM/s).*

*The sheer recoil of the weapon is mitigated mostly by advanced hydraulic recoil buffers and a large muzzle break, this reduces the recoil greatly but recoil is still rather substantial, to the point that VOTE-X can be pushed back slightly if he isn't properly grounded. Despite this VOTE-X can fire the gun as fast as he comfortably can as the weapon is semi-automatic, prefering to fire at a sustained rate of 30 RPM but can fire up to 120 RPM rapidly.*

*The weapon is fed using a 5 round magazine that can disposed of as they are made using 3D printing. The weapon does not need much maintanence despite it being advanced but does need frequent battery replacements due to the energy usage per shot. The weapon also has an inbuilt scope that can change between normal, thermal and night vision when needed and has a magnification of 24x*

## Trivia

* *This weapon has no real life counterpart to compare with.*
	+ *Though, design profile wise it is loosely based on the Accuracy International Artic Warfare Magnum.*
* *Railguns are weapons that uses electromagnetism to propel a projectile at extremely high speeds and haven't reached the point of being man portable and only currently exists on ships.*
	+ *The VTX-20 is however not a true railgun as it uses still uses physical propellants, something that a railgun does not need.*
* *Buona Vista litterally means Good sight in italian. Which fits the weapon's capabilities due to its high magnification and range.*
* *Its one of a few weapons that can physically harm Reece in his base form. It would only piss him off more though.*
* *According to the infobox's picture name, the weapon was originally supposed to be a Anti-material rifle.*
