"Are you familiar with my body of work? If you are, then you know I can come up with something so much better than "Speedy"." This article should be moved to Joe (Earth-TUD5). If required, use the talk page for discussion. |
Joe, code-named Heatstroke, was a meta-human and one of the four members of the Masters of Disaster.
Biography
Joe and his fellow Masters of Disaster did black ops for the government.
Joe thawed.
Heatstroke was revived from his cryostasis on Tobias Whale's orders after he acquired all four of the Masters of Disaster pods in 2019. By this point, Heatstroke had been in stasis for thirty years.[1]
Tobias intended to sell the meta-humans to the highest bidder and dispatched Heatstroke into Freeland to wreak havoc. He broadcast Heatstroke's rampage throughout the dark web as a kind of marketing video. During the rampage, Heatstroke used his pyrokinetic powers to kill Councilman Kwame Parker and his police bodyguards during a public speech he was holding. After killing Parker, Heatstroke began heating gas pipes throughout the city, resulting in homes in West Freeland catching on fire.[1]
Black Lightning faced off against Heatstroke and the two proved to be a match for one another. The arrival of Thunder turned the battle in Black Lightning's favor, forcing Tobias to order Heatstroke to retreat to avoid losing one of his potential assets.[1] When Lala came looking for Tobias, he saw that Black Lightning was getting beat, so Lala shot Joe to death saying that him and Black Lightning have no beef.[2]
