- Joe is an Autobot Micromaster from the Return of Convoy portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Joe (ジョー, jō) is a member of the Liner Team, six locomotive Micromasters who can combine to form Sixliner. The Liner Team fight alongside Star Convoy, Grandus and Sky Garry to protect the universe from the forces of the mighty Dark Nova.
In an alternate-timeline/universe, Joe is an information analysis specialist. He gathers all sorts of intelligence with his space-probe "Gripper", and his analysis of battles helps guide the way to future advantages. Joe has a friendly, open-hearted personality, and his skills at counseling have helped ease the troubles of many an Autobot warrior. He also has the power to manipulate either electro-magnetic or radio waves.
