X-Factor sensation Joe - a 26 year old tool salesman from Wolverhampton rocked the ITV talent on his debut in 2012, the appearance another stage in his numerous attempts to achieve stardom. Singing ‘Whole Lotta Love’, judge Tulisa raved about Joseph’s amazing voice, while Louis Walsh loved Whelan’s "authentic rock voice" and Take That star Gary Barlow described Joe's performance as "awesome" from beginning to end.

Now seeking a solo career, Joe signed to ROK Records in 2012 and this special audio comic has been released to coincide with the launch of his first single, "I Lie Lonely".
