In Episode 32 of CEREBRO, Connor and legendary Marvel writer and editor Ann Nocenti chase a ratings spike with her creation Mojo, ruler of the Wildways! Created for the 1985 miniseries Longshot, Mojo became one of the X-Men's strangest recurring foes: the alien despot of a world built on television. As biting meta-commentary on fandom itself, he has become an engine for social satire in X-Men comics.
The CEREBRO character file on Mojo begins at 48:43.
(Content Advisory: Mojo's story includes slavery, brainwashing, torture, suicide, and metaphors for addiction.)
The episode cover features art of Mojo by Art Adams.
