Season 1
Joey escapes New Venice with the rest of his family when it is under attack by The General, assimilating with Tom Snyder's group of ragtag survivors. While on the road, he develops a small friendship with Darla, Joey being the first person of her age group to really befriend. This friendship is shortlived however, when an attack on an abandoned mansion the group is staying at leaves Joey separated from the group. He disappears, and the group goes on a search for him that turns up with no clues at all. Realizing the fearsome tyrant The General is nearby, and fearing he will slaughter them all if he finds them, the group makes the rough decision to abandon young Joey. He hasn't been seen since.
