[[Image:KOF_Orochi_Joe.png|right]]
Joe is a mainstay to [[The King of Fighters Orochi Collection/Terry|Terry Bogard]]'s ''Fatal Fury'' team throughout a lot of the [[:Category:The King of Fighters|King of Fighters]] tournaments. During the [[The King of Fighters '94|KoF '94]] tournament, [[The King of Fighters Orochi Collection/Andy|Andy Bogard]] chose to include Joe as a team member instead of [[The King of Fighters Orochi Collection/Mai|Mai Shiranui]], making her feel left out.
While Joe never played much of a major role since the defeat of [[The King of Fighters Orochi Collection/Geese|Geese Howard]] in the [[:Category:Fatal Fury|Fatal Fury]] series, Joe has proven to be a loyal sidekick to the Bogards, teaming with them in every KOF. He has since become the practical joker amongst the brothers Bogard and their other friends and allies.
Joe eventually becomes stronger than his former training partner and best friend Andy Bogard.
