Appearance and Personality

Hell Joe seems to enjoy comics and gets annoyed when others interrupt him when he is reading. According to a Red Witch, he can be described as maverick, in a way he doesn't trust anyone else.

History
Hell Joe used to be a "Hole Repairman" in the South City. On the Floor of Death, these “holes” are special organs, which pull shinsoo from the outside. Hell Joe came to know everything about holes after working on them for such a long time. Eventually, the former ruler of South City, Gran De Sah, began to trust Hell Joe. Afterwards, Gran De Sah called him into his castle and appointed him “Top Hole Master”. Having become the Top Hole Master, Hell Joe started changing the structure of the Holes as he pleased, allowing him the control over the shinsoo and the life of South City. Subsequentially most of Gran De Sah’s underlings changed sides, and eventually, Hell Joe led those people to the core of the castle against Gran De Sah. Until finally, he ruled over South City.
