Robert Edward O Speedwagon is a friend of the Joestars.
Story
Robert Edward O Speedwagon AKA just Speedwagon, is probably the most loyal friend to the Joestar family that ever lived. He first appeared as an Ogre Street thug boss, attacking Jonathan Joestar, but soon realized the young man's worthiness and dedication, becoming his good friend. He helped uncover Dio Brando's plot to poison George Joestar, and from that point onward he remained by Jonathan's side, helping in whatever way he could to defeat Dio. Speedwagon could never master the art of hamon. While Speedwagon can hold his own in a fight when he demonstrated to be able to injure Jonathan use his hat trick which has a buzz-saw hiding within it. After joining the team he sits back as he is not a hamon user and can't fight in the same league as the zombies and vampires. He does however offer words of encouragement through the entire adventure
By the 1930's he is the head of the Speedwagon Foundation, a giant oil company, which assists the Joestar family a great deal in the Series 2-6. In 1952 he dies of a heart attack at age 89. His men would go on to help Jotaro destroy the remains of Dio and create the prosthetic hand
