Acclaimed actor John Cusack and celebrated international artist Ignacio Noé deliver a wild, genre-bending road trip with cosmic stakes.
Two fugitives form an uneasy alliance on a mission tied to none other than Jackie Gleason—yes, that Jackie Gleason—and quickly find themselves in way over their heads.
What follows is a surreal collision of pulp sci-fi, occult mystery, and dark humor, packed with bizarre encounters, buried secrets, and forces far beyond their control. As reality starts to crack and loyalties fray, one thing becomes clear: this trip could save the world… or end it in spectacular fashion.

And Ignacio Noé’s subtly detailed, nuanced art makes everything interesting to look at. But I’m not sure the absurdity carries as much existential weight as Cusack obviously wants. And despite how well Noé draws them as indiviuals, and despite the fact they are the most sympathetic of all characters, I'm not sure I cared enough about the two protagonists. But 'Momo' is definitely a trip. Read Full Review

Plot
Johnson and Tina meet under unusual circumstances and team up to make money by taking on a job for the mobster Doc—though the assignment proves to be rather bizarre. The story is set in the United States in the late 1960s.
Doc proposes tracking down the famous comedian Jackie Gleason, who is in possession of information and an illegal product that interest him—items involving then-President Richard Nixon and real-life figures, thereby transforming U.S. history into a fascinating sort of fantastic fable.
Rich in dark humor, the story blends conspiracy theories with mob elements, a road trip, mystery, science fiction, and the occult. Nothing is quite what it seems, and the plot is full of twists; however, the dialog more+ Like • Comment -
