Red Dead Redeemer
An orphan who escaped and quickly found himself in trouble, he was saved by Dutch Van Der Linde from being hanged by a family he was trying to steal from. Taken under his wing along Arthur Morgan, he became a member of Dutch's Gang, and eventually fell in love with the gang's prostitute, Abigail Roberts, whom he had a son with (Jack Marston). After the botched ferry incident in Blackwater, he was lost in the mountains and got his face disfigured by wolves, but continues doing heists for the gang.

Slowly, Dutch begins to change and, in partial to Micah Bell III's influence on him, loses his trust in John as he cares too much for his family, and Arthur suggests to leave the crumbling gang. On the robbery to the Army Payroll train, John is shot and Dutch leaves him to die, but returns later just when Arthur is confronting Micah on selling them out to the Pinkerton National Detective Agency. As he and Arthur make their escape from both the gang and the Pinkerton, Arthur sacrifices himself to help John escape; to give him a second chance. John escapes with his family and goes by the name Jim Milton, and does work as a farm hand and eventually takes a debt to buy a ranch while living with his family, until he hears news of Micah's location and goes to confront him. As both's group shoot at each other, Dutch appears and initially seems to be on Micah's side, but mortally wounds him and before Micah can retaliate, John out-draws him and shoots him dead. Afterwards, Dutch is already gone and John finds the Blackwater assault money, which he uses to pay his debts and live a tranquil life.

However, 4 years later, the Federal Bureau of Investigation kidnaps John's wife and child to employ him to track and kill the last 2 members of his former gang. John first tracks down Bill Williamson who formed his own gang, and when he finally confronts him, he escapes to mexico and John follows him, eventually finding and killing him. Finally, there's only one left to kill; Dutch Van Der Linde. After finding him, Dutch told John that despite the times changing, he can't help but fight the system, and that "Our time has passed... John" before promptly jumping off a cliff.

Afterwards, John is reunited with his family, but the FBI comes for him, and after stalling for his family to escape, he is eventually shot down. Years later, his son would avenge his death.

Season 3
During the Dimensional Merge, John came from the time he was hunting Dutch, and after finding him on the TFR ring, they both confront each other.
