Joey is a student in Lawndale High School, in the same class as Quinn Morgendorffer. He is part of the
Three Js, a group of boys that follow Quinn around, attending to her every whim.
Characterization
Joey is recognizable amoung the Three J's due to his black hair. He is part of the football team.
Joey has a small entry in The Daria Diaries.
In "Fair Enough", DeMartino refers to Joey as using dyslexia as an excuse for bad schoolwork; whether he's genuinely dyslexic wasn't stated.
Joey's surname was never mentioned on the books nor on the show. A fanfiction surname is "Black", playing on Jamie White's canon surname.
In "One J at a Time", Quinn "goes steady" with Joey - but only after trying Jamie first.
In Fanfiction
The three J's are a regular appearances in fanfiction, but presence of these boys as singular induviduals is rarer. Joey appears in:
- The Nothingness of Being, by TAG - where he is the main character and is given a family situation, though feelings and dreams.
- Attraction Anxiety, by Crusading Saint - a ship story.
- Winter in Hell, also by TAG - the author used elements of both the above stories in this one. Joey makes a small but important appearance.
- Turnabout Confusion, by Dennis - where he is the only one of the three Js who remains committed to Quinn after her fall from popularity.
