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[edit]
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[edit]
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.
