'''Joe Heffley''' is the younger brother and rival of [[Frank Heffley]], brother-in-law of [[Susan Heffley]], and uncle of [[Greg Heffley|Greg]] , [[Rodrick Heffley|Rodrick]] and [[Manny Heffley]].
 
==Synopsis==
===Role in ''[[Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules|Rodrick Rules]]''===
Joe comes to [[Greg]]'s house late for Thanksgiving. His children all call their uncle "Aunt Fwank ([[Frank Heffley|Frank]])". [[Susan Heffley|Susan]] says that this is cute but Frank says that Joe taught them to do that. When Frank goes down to the basement, to do edits to his Civil War diorama, Joe sneaks down and says "Nice toys, big brother!". Frank explains everything to Joe, but Joe didn't listen to a syllable he was saying. Greg mentions that the year before that book takes place, [[Manny Heffley|Manny]] was approximately 2 weeks from getting out of diapers, but Joe puts a stop to it by saying "Watch out for the 'potty monster', little fella!". Every-time time Frank had to change a dirty diaper after that, he started cursing Uncle Joe under his breath.
 
===Role in ''[[Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Last Straw|The Last Straw]]''===
Joe makes a brief appearance on The Party at the gym. Greg says that when the songs start, he holds Greg's hands, even though he doesn't have to. Greg also says he has an iron grip.
 
===Role in ''[[Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days|Dog Days]]''===
Greg says he asked Joe to encourage Frank to buy a dog. Joe slaps Frank's back saying "A boy needs a ''dog''!". Later, he is at Greg's birthday party, and his dog, [[Killer]], eats some of Greg's birthday cake.
 
===Role in ''[[Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Ugly Truth|The Ugly Truth]]''===
Joe and his brother, Frank, are trying to get Greg to be more responsible and not end up like their brother, [[Uncle Gary|Gary Heffley]]. He appears at Gary's Last wedding and the [[Heffley family]] reunion.
 
==Personality==
Uncle Joe is evidently the most troublesome character in the series, who inadvernteley embarrasses, harms and wreck's [[Heffley family|Frank's family]], by causing lots of pain and disgust. Uncle Joe is classified as very immature, childish, overly-affectionate and troublesome.
 
==Appearance==
Uncle Joe is shown having a Mexican-style mustache, black hair and western-style clothing, looking more like a cowboy in [[Greg]]'s illustrations.
 
==Trivia==
* Even though Uncle Joe is younger than [[Frank Heffley|Frank]], the illustration of his mustache and other features may imply that Uncle Joe is older than what [[Greg]]'s portrays him to be.
* Uncle Joe is quite possibly the only character to be universally disliked by [[Greg]], [[Rodrick]], [[Frank Heffley|Frank]] and [[Manny]].
* ''The Ugly Truth'' is the only book in which Uncle Joe appears in and gets along with [[Frank Heffley|Frank]].
