- "Guns get the job done. But, a man ain't nothin' if he can't tear the head off a hellish beast with only his bare hands!"
- ―Joe to Moxxie, about close combat
Joe is the father of Millie, Sallie May, and their brothers, and the husband of Lin. He and his wife are also the owners of the Rough n' Tumbleweed Ranch in the Wrath Ring.
He is a minor character who made his debut alongside his wife in "The Harvest Moon Festival".
Appearance[]
Joe is a very burly imp, having muscular arms and a pronounced torso. He has red skin, yellow eyes, white hair and a matching bushy mustache, along with black and white striped horns like all other male imps.
He also has white marks all along his left shoulder, though it is unknown if they are either tattoos or scarring.
He wears a sleeveless black vest over a brown sleeveless shirt, a black belt with silver buckle, and gray pants with black boots.
Personality[]
Joe, like his wife, is fond of war and violence; upon meeting Blitzo, Joe and his wife took a liking to him due to his compliment on Millie being tough and his name reminding them of war.
Similar to his wife, Joe was not very fond of Moxxie given his diminutive stature and preference for ranged weapons.
By the end of the episode, after Moxxie stood up to Joe and his wife after they chastised Millie, he appeared to express some grudging respect for Moxxie as conveyed via a nod.
History[]
Past[]
Not much known about Joe's past other than he married Lin at some point and had five children together.
Lin and Joe would bring Millie and their other children to Loo Loo Land when they could afford to.[4]
