José is quite popular in Brazil, appearing alongside [[Mickey Mouse]] and Donald Duck in the local [[Disney comics]].

Comics featuring Joe Carioca, as he is called in the Netherlands, appear occasionally in the [[Netherlands|Dutch]] ''[[Donald Duck (Dutch comic book)|Donald Duck]]'' magazine. In these short stories, José occupies his time assuming false identities to impress girls (who usually see through him, leaving him brokenhearted), and wangling free dinners in expensive restaurants, a habit that often gets him into trouble.

He appears extremely rarely in the German ''[[Micky Maus]]'' comics and {{ill|Lustiges Taschenbuch|de}}, having appeared around 10 times since his 1980 debut.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.lustiges-taschenbuch.de/node/3250|title=José Carioca &#124; Lustiges Taschenbuch|website=www.lustiges-taschenbuch.de}}</ref>

In the Brazilian comics, Zé is also part of his neighborhood [[Association football|soccer]] team and runs a [[samba school]]. He has a secret identity as a superhero, ''Morcego Verde'' (''Green Bat'', a [[Batman]] spoof), although he is easily recognized by his neighbors.

In recent years, José Carioca has been used alongside Panchito and Donald in two comics by American artist [[Don Rosa]], ''[[The Three Caballeros Ride Again]]'' (2000) and ''[[The Magnificent Seven (Minus 4) Caballeros]]'' (2005). The creation of a [[Brazil]]ian animated character during the [[World War II|Second World War]] was part of a strategy called "[[Good Neighbor Policy]]" headed by the [[United States]] government to improve relations and gather support amongst its neighbor countries.

In 2023, Dutch stories introduced Parquita, José's new girlfriend.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Alex van Koten |url=https://www.lambiek.net/artists/k/koten_alex-van.htm |access-date=2024-01-08 |website=lambiek.net |language=en}}</ref>
