Joey

Joey is a major protagonist in Boastgusters. He is the second person to join the Fellas and is the bruiser of the group.

Personality
At first glance, one might think that Joey doesn't think a whole lot. He has a strange tendency to slur his words or speak in accents, and generally lets his insane amount of power obtained through circumstance do the talking. Oftentimes he rushes into fights. However, he also has some wisdom deep within him that he's acquired from years of adventuring, and that sometimes shines through.

Before Part 2
A few years after Joey was born, his father, Yahtzee, killed his entire family. Why he did this is unknown.

Joey meets Kye and the two become friends at some point, and Kye teaches Joey the Heat Signature Chromosome technique.

Part 2
Joey and Kye both attend elementary school together in the 5th grade, where they take a trigonometry test. Here Joey makes a pickle sandwich, which he stores for later in his pants pocket. This pickle sandwich is of some importance, according to Future Kye. They both pass the test and are drafted into the Second Vietnam War as a result.

He is grouped into a cell with Kye and Willem Dafoe, and the three of them go into Vietnam.

During the trip, they visit a small village where Joey observes a group of people fighting, who are then calmed down by an elder. He uses this as an argument for peace without war because Kye is currently having an "imperialism moment".

When he returns to the camp, he uses the Chromosome Heat Signature technique to discover that there are signs of life in the jungle near their base. So, he jumps into the trees, and gets shot by a sniper rifle (fired by Christian Coleman). Kye comes with a arrives in time to fuse Joey with the star Betelgeuse, which saves his life. The three of them go back to camp.

After they return, Napalm Man attacks them. Joey jumps on top of him, and finds that his skin can't be broken due to the new star energy coursing through his veins. He promptly passes out. Willem Dafoe runs away.

Joey, Kye and Christian are all on the boat home together, and Kye hears Joey whisper in his sleep about Brother, which is the catchphrase of Hulk Hogan.

Between Part 2 and 3
Joey meets Christopher like the other two Fellas do. The four of them begin to attend Judkins Middle School.

Part 3
After Christopher moves away, Joey snaps and fully succumbs to the Hulk Hogan side of himself. While doing this, he rampages around the school - his star strength prevents him from taking major damage. This only happens for a few hours until Terry Handy seals the Hulk Hogan side of Joey inside of the Chromosome Sword of Sealing.

Joey meets Lingobingo along with the rest of his friends, and is not suspicious of Arnold Schwarzenegger at first. However, he goes with his friends and Mr. Handy to deal with him nonetheless. He gets sad when Mr. Handy "dies", and helps Christian carry out his plan by digging a very big hole for him, which Schwarzenegger is buried alive in.

Lingobingo comes to see Joey after she gets a Founding Father trapped inside of her. She asks him to kill her, and after some hesitance, he punches through her chest but misses her heart. He still thinks that he killed her though, so he screams, but it teleports him into Fellas Hell. The guardian of Fellas Hell, Braeburn the three-headed dog, tells him that it's not his time, and teleports him back to the school. Lingobingo is mysteriously gone.

Joey is there when they hear that the Ian Penton has gone missing, and after he watches Christian save Jiffy Bizus using the Life Insurance technique, he goes and officially registers the name "Fellas" for their friend group. How he does this is unknown.

Joey and Christian split up to go after Crest Colgate while Mr. Handy and Kye go after Steve Wide. After a fight with Colgate, Joey screams her arm off, and she gets away on one of her clay monkeys. They learn that Colgate did not have Penton. Before they can go aide Kye and Mr. Handy, Yahtzee appears and traps Joey in an illusion, but Joey breaks out of it fairly quickly. It turns out that this was just a 33.3 repeating percent clone of Yahtzee.

Joey is present at Mr. Handy's funeral and when Michael Jackson threatens the Fellas with the idea of the Freaker Five. He agrees to train for a year and then return to the group.

Part 4
Joey, while on a family trip in Maine, gets into a fight with many, many gigantic lobsters. It ends with the summoning of the Rock Lobster, which is the strongest of all the lobsters, who destroys the entire state of Maine before being teleported away by Future Kye. Perplexed, Joey screams himself to Lone Star Base in order to report the monsters to the government.

Inside the base he meets Willem Dafoe again, who tells him not to talk about the lobsters, but shows him to his latest creation: a reanimation of the former United States soldier, The Heavy TF2. Normal means can't kill him, so Joey teleport screams back to Judkins.

When he reaches Judkins, he unearths the Chromosome Sword of Sealing and meets the prophet of darkness, Long Horse. After an exchange, he screams back to the base.

Joey fights The Heavy TF2, who uses his Soviet Distribution Eyes and nearly kills Joey. Just seeing the eyes reminds Joey of all the times Yahtzee used them, and then they awaken in him. After a tough battle, Joey seals The Heavy TF2 inside the sword.

When he returns to put the sword back, a family of moles are trying to steal from the grave. So he kills all of them.

Part 5
Joey goes to Central Coast New Tech High with the other Fellas, and records his screech at the request of Señor Hinthorne, who uses the recording as a means of teleporting.

Part 6
During the Fellas gathering at New Tech, Joey uses the Soviet Distribution Eyes on Arnold Scwharzenegger, now known as the Terminator, in order to defeat him.

Joey is also present when Tristan shoots Lingobingo. He is the one who cares the most. He uses Greg's money to buy an absurd amount of uncooked ramen at the airport when they begin their quest to defeat Mark Zuckerberg.

When the Fellas stop in Kyoto and Kye gets put in jail, Joey goes with Greg to bail him out. However, Kye doesn't want to leave, so he and Joey have a duel in the middle of the jail cell. When Joey wins, Kye agrees to leave. Joey is present when Kye finds the Egyptian Ghost Goop in Christian's head, and is also the reason that their plane crashes in Singapore. There was a large fly, and he smashed it so hard that, as he has the force of a star inside him, the plane tumbled down from the atmosphere.

While in Singapore, the Fellas are accosted by Christian en Français, who Joey fights in a one-on-one duel. After the battle, he spares Christian en Français and he joins their party.

Joey just watches Kye fight Silverfish and accepts Celes briefly joining the party.

He unplugs the TV and kills Mark Zuckerberg's hand when it escapes from the TV.

When they're deeper in India, Joey gets shot in the head by Tristan Walsh and is buried by Kye to avoid him from being found.
