Slade Wilson loves his kids. (Slade is no good for his kids.)

He vows to avenge Grant when he dies in conflict with the Teen Titans. (Grant dies following his father's footsteps.)

He reconciles with the Titans after Joey joins the team. (Slade slits Joey's throat rendering him mute.)

He trains Rose to be better than him. (Rose loses her eye in the field. Just like Dad.)

A preview of my piece for @jerichozine ! I am so beyond excited to get to be a part of this project, both as an artist and as a mod. I've loved the character of Joey Wilson since I was a kid and am really looking forward to sharing the complete zine with the world very soon!

This zine is over 50 pages of Jericho art and fic, and all proceeds go to Communication First, a nonprofit advocacy group for those with speech-related disabillities.

Happy Pride Month from the Jericho Zine! 🩷🩵

Here’s a history of Joey’s sexuality journey within comics canon!

While always speculated by fans, Joey was never confirmed to be queer in the original New Teen Titans run. George Perez, the series’s co-creator, is quoted as saying: “While Marv and I did discuss the possibility of Joseph Wilson being gay, Marv decided that it was too much of a stereotype to have the sensitive, artistic, and wide-eyed character with arguably effeminate features be also homosexual. While I think that may or may not have been a righteous concern, we did establish the character as heterosexual throughout the series."

However, this was retconned in Convergence: New Teen Titans (2015), when Joey came out as a gay man to Kole.

(sign is “I am a gay man.”)

Later in Rebirth era Deathstroke (2016), Joey was reestablished as bisexual, dating both men and women in the series.

Either way, Jericho is an example of LGBTQ+ representation within DC comics that has touched the lives of many and remains an amazing character! He is also one of the only disabled queer characters we see.

He has made an appearance in a pin up in DC Pride (2024) but has yet to make a story appearance.

All the (New) Teen Titans have Daddy Issues…

Dick Grayson: Witnesses both parents dying in front of him. Then he was adopted by the most EMOTIONALLY CONSTIPATED MAN in the entire universe.

Koriand’r: Her parents sold her into slavery to save her home planet. THEN her Dad call her home only to say the enslavers have left BUT Tamaran is about to break out into civil war and they NEED her to marry some guy she’s never met. Even though she was dating Dick and her FATHER WAS AWARE BUT DIDN’T CARE. He pressured her into a union she didn’t want and she lost her lover because he refused to be a side piece to a married woman. Also her sister sucks.

Raven: Her dad is literally a rock in her head, AKA Trigon. Say less.

Garfield Logan: His father experimented on him, saving his life but turing him green and giving him powers. Then his parents promptly drowned in a river. Then he went through foster care. Brought into the Doom patrol and raised by yet another emotionally constapated father figure.

Victor Stone: Mom? Dead. Dad? Scientist who saved his life after an accident, but turned his own kid into a half robot. Painfully. And against his will. He couldn’t play the sports he loved anymore and he felt like a freak.

Joseph Wilson: His dad is the reason he is Mute. He comes from the most dysfunctional family in DC, with his dad being an assassin for higher who wants to kill all of Joey’s friends. An older brother who died, and a sister who his dad pretends doesn’t exist. His dad is “Death Stroke.” Say less.

Donna of Troy: Parents? Nope. She was saved from a house fire by wonder woman who brought her to live with the Amazons.

Timeline? What Timeline? Part 1: Ages

The Cotton-Eyed Joes is a crack AU. A large part of the reason it's a crack AU is because a lot of these guys are dead. This means we're clearly working outside the pile of decomposing woodchips that passes for a continuity in the DC Universe.

This leaves us with several questions to resolve. The first one is what I wanna address here: just how old are the Joes? Well. That answer is currently subject to change, but their age order and age gaps remain fairly consistent. Here's the breakdown for how we got there.

Metric 1: Introduction

Who was introduced first? Since everyone was introduced before Flashpoint, there's only one universe reboot resetting their ages for us to worry about, so this is a fairly safe measuring system.

Bette is first, followed by Lilith, then Gnarrk. Crisis on Infinite Earths happens, and then we get Tara and Joey at about the same time, followed by Danny (don't quote me on that). Wendy is last.

Metric 2: Last Known Age

How old were they when they died or disappeared? General Spoiler Warning for this section, since we're discussing character death. This is mostly for the purpose of keeping the comic book aging time consistent, since comics characters obviously don't age as fast as the real world and frequently don't even age as fast as each other (looking at you Raven).

Bette's last appearances were some scattered guest star features in 2011. Since this is still New Earth Continuity, and she's around the founding Titan's age in New Earth, so I'm choosing to assume she was somewhere in her early to mid 20s here.

Lilith's last appearance pre-Flashpoint was when she got killed in 2003. She was still a main Titan at this time (same age as the fab 5), so also early to mid 20s. Lilith is also the only Joe who hasn't dropped off the face off the planet, and was last seen post-Flashpoint in Power Girl Volume 3, where I think she's the same age as PG, which would put her around 30

Gnarrk's last appearance I THINK was in 2019 in Heroes in Crisis where he got offed by Savitar, but he was part of the OG TT here, which would put him in his mid to late 20s.

Joey's last appearance pre-Flashpoint was in 2004 in Teen Titans where I think he was still alive after being dead for a bit? Anyway, here, he's in the second age bracket of Titans---Beast Boy, Raven, Terra, etc. I wanna say this makes him no older than 20 when he goes M.I.A. He more or less disappeared in Flashpoint, save for a cameo where he isn't a vigilante.

Tara's last appearance was the Judas contract where I think she was about 16 (goodness knows I'll get roasted if I'm wrong). A couple of other people going by Terra appeared after that, but they're not the same person.

Danny was about the same age as Jason Todd and got kicked from the team when Jason died, which would have made him 15. He later got killed/merged with the souls of Azarath into the entity Phantasm, and I'm going to assume through the power of Comic Book Time that he was still 15 here.

Wendy---bless your heart, you're easy---is in the same age bracket as the YJ98 crowd, and was last seen in Batgirl v3 in 2011, where she would have been somewhere from 17-19.

Metric 3: Ages Relative to each other

Some of these people have actually coexisted and interacted, and even if they haven't, most of them have teammates in common.

Bette is the same age as Dick Grayson, which makes her one of the youngest of the OG Titans. Lilith and Gnarrk are closer in age to Arsenal, making them some of the oldest OG Titans. If I had to give it a number, I'd say Bette and Gnarrk have a 3 year age gap at the most.

Terra and Joey are around the same age, and were about 15 when Dick was 19ish, I think, putting a 4 year gap between them and Bette while Danny would have been 12 at the same time.

Wendy is the youngest by this metric, making her the same age as Danny or a year younger.

Metric 4: General Character Vibes

This metric could also be called: how old were they when they had all their important stories? By this measurement we get:

Lilith and Gnarrk: Mid to late 20s

Bette: Early 20s

Joey, Tara, and Wendy: Late Teens (16-19)

Danny: Early Teens (13-15)

Summary: Between all these metrics, a pattern emerges Lilith and Gnarrk being the oldest, followed by Bette. Joey and Tara are older than Danny but younger than Bette. You can either make Wendy somewhere around Joey and Tara's age, or you can make her around Danny's age. For the purposes of this AU, we like to use the first option.

Also. Bonus metric for the sillies:

Metric 5: What Decade are they from

If we ignore comic book aging time and just look at which decade they were introduced in, we have 3 60s kids (Lilith, Gnarrk, and Bette), 3 80s kids (Joey, Tara, Danny), and a 90s/early 2000s kid (Wendy). That leaves us with a 20 year age gap between "the adults" and "the kids" and Wendy the baby is 10 years younger than her siblings.
