I think Joe and Bess should go out in this one

I don't think so!

As long as it's not Joe and Nancy

That would be just wrong!

That would be interesting since they've never seemed to have had any interest in previous books. But unless we're going to start seeing regular cameos from Nancy Drew in the Hardy Boys UB books and cameos from The Hardy Boys in the Nancy Drew GD books, I really don't think they need to mess around with that. Of course, I'm still in the traditional canon mindset with the relationships being Frank and Callie, Joe and Iola and Nancy and Ned.

Yeah. Wasn't Nancy Drew mentioned in the Hardy Boys UB book No.7?

MacGyver · February 08, 2011, 08:31:00 PM

So I've heard.

Before the Hardys even met Nancy in the UB continuity. Or maybe Terror on Tour take place after Mission #7.

Maybe Frank was hallucinating.

I remember in Terror on Tour they made it seem like Joe was interested in Nancy. Luckily it hasn't been like that ever since.

Well, I don't see why people thought that was out of character for Joe. Nancy's supposed to be good looking so it makes sense that Joe would at least be a little attracted to her.

MacGyver · February 10, 2011, 12:53:25 AM

I don't think it's out of character for Joe, unless the UB series had already shown him as steadily going out with Iola. (Which I'm not totally sure of, having not read any of them yet. lol) But even if that had been established, it wouldn't be wrong for him to admit being attracted to Nancy. It's where he goes with that attraction from there that would determine whether he was cheating on his girlfriend or not.

SDLagent · February 10, 2011, 03:54:37 AM

Joe is dating Iola in the UB. Or any girl for that matter.

MacGyver · February 10, 2011, 11:24:29 AM

Okay- so he's essentially the girl-crazy Archie Andrews analog that he was in the Casefiles. (Only with Iola alive in this continuity- but he's apparently not tied down to her or anything.)
