Joseph Joestar is the main lead for Battle Tendency. Unlike Jonathan, Joseph mainly relied on his wit to outsmart his enemies. Joseph's character is quite different from his predecessor as he knows when to run away from a difficult situation. However, Joseph knows how to honor a great fighter, and he showed it when he fought against Esidisi and Wamuu. He is the only character who has been shown using a Stand and Hamon.

Phantom Blood was written and drawn by Hirohiko Araki. [27] Prior to working on the series, he created a manga that resembled the works of Hisashi Eguchi, an artist known for his art of female characters; Araki's editor, Ryōsuke Kabashima, angrily told Araki to never draw something as derivative again, which led him to take another direction with his art, and the creation of Phantom Blood. [28] Due to the popularity of Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone at the time, Araki designed characters with muscular body types. [29] The character posing, which Araki considers a distinctive aspect of his art, was influenced by a trip to Italy just before the serialization of Phantom Blood, where he went to the Galleria Borghese in Rome and saw Gian Lorenzo Bernini's sculpture Apollo and Daphne. Seeing it in person from different angles had a large influence on him; he described it as overwhelmingly beautiful and intense, and unlike sculptures in Japanese museums and the figure posing of most manga artists.
