ウイスキー, Iwan Uisukī) - Cyborg 001Ġ04 often has a gruff exterior which belies his friendly personality and disgust with war, and he is also a skilled combat tactician.In the 19 film versions, Joe was a famous racer, nicknamed 'Hurricane Joe', who gets into a crash and is recovered by Black Ghost (similar to 004's origin), who then adds several body enhancements during the process of being turned into a cyborg. When he turned 18, his mentor was killed by Black Ghost members after they used a group of children that he raised in the church as guinea pigs for the Cyborg project Joe was wrongfully blamed, then captured by the priest's killers and made into a cyborg. In the 2001 anime, after his father disappeared and his mother died on the steps at his childbirth, he was an orphan taken in by a Catholic priest from Kanazawa along with their street friends, Mary Onodera (perhaps a tribute to Shotaro Ishinomori, his birth name being Shotaro Onodera), Shin'ichi Ibaraki, and Masaru Oyamada. A delinquent youth who was shunned by his peers because he was a half-breed, he escaped from a juvenile detention facility before being captured by Black Ghost. Joe is originally from Japan, although he is actually half-Japanese whose unknown father was presumably a soldier in the US Army stationed in Japan after World War II.
