	Powell's Books - The Pin-Up Art of Dan DeCarlo by Alex Chun (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		Without a doubt, however, DeCarlo is best known for defining the look of every adolescent boy's wet dreams, Betty and Veronica, with their trademark upturned noses, tight sweaters, and barely-there mini-skirts.
		Next to the innocence that was Riverdale, however, and unbeknownst to many, DeCarlo also populated another world, which he filled with cartoons featuring girls in lingerie (and sometimes less), and often bearing an uncanny resemblance to his perennial blonde next door and rich-bitch socialite.
		DeCarlo's cheery caricatures seem out of place in the blatantly risqu world of dirty pictures, unable to match the erotic appeal of more illustrative pin-up artists.

		A lawsuit followed, and DeCarlo (who, by the way, in addition to having created Josie et al., also created the current version of the company's house style) found himself suddenly out in the cold, after 43 years — and subsequently deluged with job offers from all over the comics industry.
		DeCarlo also became an "un-person" at Archie Comics, not just fired from all the work he was doing for the company, but never so much as alluded to as part of the its history, despite his enormous contributions.

	The Pin-Up Art of Dan Decarlo Review - Silver Bullet Comics
		DeCarlo, who died in 2001, created the all-girl band, Josie and the Pussycats, filed a lawsuit for a share of the rights and loot from the Josie property which got him banished from Archie Publications, and co-created, with George Gladir, Sabrina, the Teenage Witch.
		This Dan DeCarlo book is a paperback original and small (5¾ x 7¾) compared to the Ward and Cole volumes.
		DeCarlo also put such imagination into the presentation of his cartoons that you can find something new probably about every time you look at each pin-up, and you’ll certainly give this tome repeated viewings.

		DeCarlo told the Comic Wire last week that it was next year's upcoming "Josie and the Pussycats" live action film that prompted him to sue for greater compensation for the property.
		The Comics Journal has reported that Archie Comics had previously offered DeCarlo $35,000 for all claims to Josie, whom the artist says was originally based on his wife and intended for a newspaper strip.
		We assumed that Dan and his attorney simply did not understand that, under the copyright law, as a commissioned work, Dan's contribution to the creation of the 'Josie' property constituted a work-for-hire owned by Archie Comics.

		We have now got to pay the price for not looking over your traditional abusive manner and calling it for what it is, a tactic that has brought shame to not only the company and those who honestly work for you, but for comics in general.
		Well, Archie's is doing a much better job of beating over Dan's grave than me. Hell, instead of resolving this issue with the family while containing their ego, Archie's management is hoping that time and dirt well cover up their latest abusive folly.
		Dan DeCarlo is just one of many old time creators who is getting/got fisted by their company, just his is a bit more recent.

		But since it was Dan DeCarlo, I said, "I'm trying to think of a way to work in a beach scene." And he said, "Well, maybe the guy proposes on the beach." And I said "Okay." So that's how we start out, or almost start out [the story], is with a beach scene.
		Dan was going to do the pencils; my publisher Mike Curtis, who used to work for Harvey Comics, actually did the breakdowns for Dan, just to kind of speed things up, and did something very much in the Archie mode.
		The odd thing is, even if Dan had been able to do the story, there's a good chance he would have died before he finished it anyway.

		In 1961, after he'd been free-lancing for Archie for a few years, DeCarlo resurrected Josie, took the strip into Archie Comics' president and publisher Richard Goldwater Jr., and asked if he and his father--Richard Sr., editor-in-chief--would be interested in trying to sell Josie as a strip.
		The suit claims that DeCarlo wouldn't receive another royalty check from Archie until December 11, 1998, in the amount of $1,406.25--"with no explanation for how the amount was calculated," Seymour says.
		DeCarlo would find that out later--when the company told him 43 years' worth of servitude wasn't worth a dime.

	The Pin-up Art of Dan Decarlo
		That’s because the late Dan DeCarlo was the Archie comic book artist until Archie dismissed him in the late 1990’s over a lawsuit.
		THE PIN-UP ART OF DAN DECARLO collects the best of DeCarlo’s ink wash pin-up work for the company, which was part of Timely.
		For one thing, DeCarlo’s style might have seemed simple, but he had an uncanny knack of creating seemingly hundreds of faces with a few strokes of his pen; something many artists can’t even do with 50 squiggly lines.
