Let's make some other meta, then

[(Anonymous)]

I'm curious about how, once the apocalypse happened, everything got to the way it was in the movie and how Joe got to his position. The thing is, I read somewhere that Miller suggested Fury Road is 40-something years post-apocalypse. That means that not only would the older Vuvalini remember the Old World, but Joe would be old enough to remember it, too. That makes him extra super creepy to me. If he'd been wholly a product of the post-apocalypse wasteland, then maybe he wouldn't bother me as much (I mean, he'd still be evil and awful, but that would just be the culture he was born into). As it is, I imagine he could have been just some young dude in Australia, maybe he had a job or something, then the apocalypse happens and he's like "I'm going to be an evil overlord now." Granted, I'm sure awful things happened to him mid- and post-apocalypse, but awful things happened to lots of people and they didn't all turn out like Joe. It's just really freaky thinking that, given the right set of circumstances, some random person next to me on the bus could become a tyrannical dictator who brainwashes boys into believing in a death cult and holds women captive to either impregnate them or pump their breast milk.

Also, clan Swaddle Dog, wtf?

Oh, shit. Good catch on Joe there.

Last month a Mad Max comic with Joe's back story came out. It was written by the movie writers and is considered canon.

Joe was originally Joe Moore, an army colonel when the apocalypse happened. When civilization collapsed he took his men, formed a gang and went around raiding and pillaging everything they came across. Then they came across the Citadel, which was occupied by another group. At the cost of many of his men, Joe was able to overtake the Citadel and gain control of it. He later set up his men to take over a nearby old refinery and a lead mine, which lead to the two leaders known as The Bullet Farmer and The People Eater. His legend grew from there.

Neat!

Still creepy, though.
