José Carioca was created during World War II as a part of an American campaign to gain goodwill in Latin America. His first name is believed to have been inspired by the popular Brazilian cartoonist José Carlos de Britto e Cunha. His last name, Carioca, is a Brazilian word used to describe a native of Rio de Janeiro. José Carioca has become very popular in Brazil where he is now called Zé for short.
Paul Murry drew his firsts comic strips and after the War he disappeared from the USA .He was reintroduced in Brazil, on the covers off "Pato Donald"during the 50's by Luis Destuet, that came from Argentina to teach the brazilian drawers how to draw the Disney style. Jorge Jato was the first brazilian Disney drawer, and the "Zé Carioca"comic came in the 60's. After Kato, Waldyr Igayara carried the first Carioca comics. Later Herrero, Renato Canini, Cláudio de Souza, Elí Leon, Euclides Miyaura, Arthur Faria Jr, Fukue, Paulo Borges, Aluir Amâncio, Gérson Borlotti Teixeira, Aparecido Norberto, Átila de Carvalho and lot's off others brazilian writters and drawers have carried the Carioca's brazilian comics up today. The best off all: Renato Canini, that draws the most cartooning, and the most realistic Zé Carioca off all!. |
