“ | The real question is how could I not? What would happen without your fertilizer, Clint? Or your pills, Paul? Do you think our community would survive? I did what I had to, to ensure that we would. It wasn’t easy... I took the hard decisions on myself. You all remember the winter — how much we lost. Friends. Lovers. Children. I made a promise — I would never let that happen again. The raids were just to keep up us going, ‘til Richmond reached sustainability. We’re so close. So close to our dream. Do we really want to risk it all by fighting amongst ourselves? We should be all on the same side of this, David. On Richmond’s side. Surely you can see that? | „ |

Joan is the main antagonist of Telltale's The Walking Dead: A New Frontier.
She is one of the leaders of the New Frontier along with David García, Clinton Barnes, and Paul Lingard. She is also the archenemy of Javier García.
She was voiced by Jayne Taini.
What Makes Her Pure Evil?[]
- During her time as the co-leader of Richmond, she secretly ordered raids against other communities, having the bandits, lead by Badger, mass murdering dozens of people in communities, one of them, being Prescott, in which lead to the death of Francine and many others.
- Her actions lead to the death of Javier’s niece and her colleague David’s daughter Mariana, in which she sarcastically later says that it is something she “is going to have to live with".
- When Javier and David attempt to expose her for her crimes, she strong arms Clint and Lingard to siding with her before arresting Javier and David.
- Holds a live execution of David while showing off the bodies of Badger and potentially Max, Lingard and Lonnie’s corpses to frame David as the killer and the main corrupt leader.
- Captures Ava and Tripp for a public execution and forces Javier to choose which one to spare, only to have whomever Javi chooses to spare killed out of spite, showing a gleefulness over having them executed
- Sentences Javi’s group to exile, but only because there’s a growing horde of walkers outside Richmond’s walls. Her intent was giving them the most agonizing death she could come up with.
- While it was implied she was a kind leader once, only resorting to extreme methods due to the winter incident, it doesn’t justify any of her actions, and while she attempts to justify her actions by saying it’s for Richmond’s sustainability, it’s shown she clearly doesn’t care about their health as she hordes supplies they don’t need and outright expresses she could do anything she wants as leader, proving she is just a sociopathic megalomaniac.
- It's also worth mentioning that if Javi takes the deal after Tripp/Ava's death, Joan outright dares a highly unstable David to kill Clint (her most loyal follower) when he holds him at gunpoint, after which she simply runs away instead of trying to help when they fight for the gun, thus exemplifying how truly indifferent Joan is towards the death of her own people.
- She also doesn't care about Richmond as a community as if Joan doesn't get killed by Javi, she instead runs away from Richmond when zombies horde the town and when her members get hurt and/or start dying, she is not present and her whereabouts are unknown.
