History

When Zordon and Alpha 5 patch Jen Scotts’s technology with Zordon’s teleportation technology and sends a warning across time and space to all the various Ranger groups, Chad Lee and Carter are seen attempting to fend off the Ranger Sentries at the Lightspeed Aqua Base by several Mastodon Sentries. It's later unknown what became of his fate after Drakkon conquered the Lightspeed Aquabase but it's possible that he is captured. COMIC STORY- Mighty Morphin Power Rangers (Boom! Studios) Issue 27

Beyond the Grid

Joel's Green Lightspeed Ranger helmet and the other several Ranger helmets are seen in Jason Lee Scott's flashback and vision to the battle on the Moon of Shattered Grid. COMIC STORY- Go Go Power Rangers Issue 23

HyperForce

While the HyperForce Rangers are seeing the destruction of Emperor Marvo, they also witness the arrival of every Legendary Power Ranger including Joel and the other Lightspeed Rangers, and the start of the Legendary Battle. TV STORY-Stage 4: The Armada

Personality

Joel is easily the most arrogant of all the Lightspeed Rangers, having a record of preferring to disobey orders in favor of his stunts. One example was when he decided against Angela's, (the one who designed his Zord), orders to do what he wanted. This would later backfire when he gave her flowers in an attempt to impress her then berated her (unknowingly), causing his first attempt to win her heart to fail miserably. Over the course of Lightspeed Rescue, Joel starts to mature greatly, eventually enough to win him his long-time crush's heart, resulting in them being married.
