Mojo (Marvel)

Mojo, also known as Lady, Mojo Adams, Mojo Admas, The Bloat, The Lifebringer, The Spineless One and Yellow One, is a character from the Marvel Comics series.
== Charactah Account ==
Mojo is a repulsive alien entity from "Mojoworld", which can only be described as resembling a grotesquely-bloated, green-skinned human upper torso, with cybernetic cables coming out of the back of his head and mechanical struts holding his eyes and mouth. Gets around by sitting in a spider-legged mechanical platform with a tail-like blaster on its back.
Mojo is an incredibly powerful sorcerer-creature, Mojo is part of an alien race absolutely obsessed with television; by becoming the greatest producer of television shows in his dimension, Mojo has become their lord by dominating the airwaves.
Mojo's recurring obsession is with the heroes of the Marvel Universe, primarily the X-Men, as he sees them as being the "next big hit" and so he is forever either trying to force them to perform for his shows or else simply attacking them in the name of entertainment. Of course, he sees the potential popularity of other heroes and has gone after the likes of Spider-Man, Human Torch, and even Rocket Raccoon.

== Trivia ==
* The inspiration for Mojo came from media theorists Noam Chomsky, Edward S. Herman, Marshall McLuhan, and Walter Lippmann's ideas on how television was causing negative consequences to human society. While the wires holding Mojo's eyelids open were inspired by an interview with A Clockwork Orange actor Malcolm McDowell on the Late Night with David Letterman show, who described how similar eye clamps, which were used in the movie, scarred his corneas which artist Arthur Adams thought was perfect for Mojo.
* After Mojo's introduction in the Longshot series, writer Ann Nocenti planned for the character to go on and become a villain to Doctor Strange, but since she ended up writing the New Mutants she decided to make an X-Men villain.
