Joanne Collins is an evo hunter and the estranged wife of Luke Collins. After an evo received credit for the death of their son on June 13th, Joanne took it upon herself to exact revenge by hunting and killing evos with her husband. After she discovered that Luke was an evo, Joanne left him behind to continue her mission alone. Joanne is ruthless and will stop at nothing to achieve her goals. After Joanne proved to be beyond reason, her husband was forced to kill her to save Malina and the world.

Character History

Brave New World

Joanne, her husband, and their son attend the June 13th Summit at Odessa and enjoy the various shows that evolved humans are putting on, such as Mick who is creating snow. Both Joanne and Luke survive the terrorist attacks on the summit and decide to seek revenge against evolved humans for the loss of their son.

A year later Joanne bursts into a support group for evolved humans and, along with Luke, murders all in attendance except for Tommy Clark, who had to leave the meeting early. Luke and Joanne track Tommy to his place of work and attempt to kill him and his friend but Tommy instead sends them away.

Odessa

Joanne and Luke discover that they have been transported to what appears to be a child's playroom with no exit. While Luke attempts to find a way out of the room Joanne grows increasingly unstable, continuously repeating the fact that she has become obsessed with killing evolved humans and feels Luke despises her. She wonders repeatedly if they are in "hell" as well. Luke dismisses her fears and has her stand underneath the lights of the room alongside him, and when he shoots the lights out they are able to discover an exit.

Leaving the room, they find they are on Level 5 at the old Primatech facility in Odessa. Joanne comments on how creepy the place is, and she and her husband take an agent hostage. They enter another room where Joanne opens fire on all the other agents in the room. Luke joins in and the two escape, shooting Quentin Frady in the arm and stealing Noah Bennet's car. While on the road she discovers several files on evolved humans as her husband wonders out loud about the owner of the vehicle.

Under the Mask

While driving, Joanne looks through files on several evolved humans, including a couple the two murdered a few months ago. Joanne then asks Luke his opinion on their next target, offering Oscar Gutierrez as a possible choice. Luke is busy listening to a broadcast about evos and June 13th and decides to change the station. As soon as Luke tries to do this the car stops working and the two decide to continue on foot.

Luke and Joanne then go to get food at a diner where Joanne continues to express her desire to continue their hunt. A waitress then brings the two their food and Joanne sees that the steak is overcooked. Joanne calls the waitress over, demanding that the food be cooked properly.

After arriving at the Lido Motel, Joanne to gets a room, and he stays outside for "fresh air".

The Needs of the Many

Joanne enters a home and gleefully kills an evo, and her reluctant husband follows her in. Ignoring her elation at the kill, he questions what they are doing and talks about how the man had a family. She leaves with him as the man's dog nuzzles the evo's corpse and whines.

Joanne asks Luke what's wrong with him when he later stays shut in their motel room, with the curtains drawn. He tries to wave it away by saying that he has a headache. She opens the curtains to let the light in, but then shuts the curtains at his request. She feels his forehead and notes that it is "like the surface of the sun", leaving to get him medicine and instructing him to drink plenty of fluids. Luke says that they used to be part of something special, but Joanne waves that away, stating that things always look better in the rearview.

Later on, when they are on the road, her husband mentions how he feels that he's lost Joanne to her bloodlust, and begs her to stop their killing of evos. When he incinerates the list she has with his powers, she trains her gun on his head. He informs her, tearfully, that she can shoot him if she wants. Disgusted, Joanne holsters the gun. She states that she "used to love him", then walks back down the road, leaving Luke to watch her through the rearview mirror.

The Lion's Den

Luke returns to the Collinses' home and calls out for Joanne, but she is nowhere to be found. Luke looks at photographs and reminisces about his time with Joanne and their son Dennis.

Game Over

Luke leaves Joanne a voicemail telling her that he sold his part of Tooth Tamers and burned down their home.
