In addition to his comic-book work, DeCarlo drew freelance pieces for the [[magazines]] ''[[The Saturday Evening Post]]'' and ''[[Argosy Magazine|Argosy]]'', as well as publisher [[Martin Goodman (publisher)|Martin Goodman]]'s [[Humorama]] line of [[pin-up girl]] cartoon digests.

The exact circumstances of Josie's creation became the subject of a lawsuit involving Mr. DeCarlo and Archie Comics shortly before the cartoon was made into the feature film ''[[Josie and the Pussycats (film)|Josie and the Pussycats]]'', released in 2001 by [[MCA/Universal]]. DeCarlo said that he created the character on his own in the late 1950's and tried to sell it as a syndicated comic strip called ''Here's Josie.'' At least one syndicate turned him down. In the midst of the dispute, the publisher terminated its 43-year relationship with him. Among his final works were a story for [[Paul Dini]]'s independent comics title ''[[Jingle Belle]]'', and stories for [[Bongo Comics]]' ''[[The Simpsons]]'' [[TV series|TV]] tie-in comic, ''[[Bart Simpson]]''. "It was tragic that when he was at an age when many cartoonists are revered as treasures by more beneficent publishers, Dan felt spurned and slighted by the owners of properties that prospered greatly from his contributions. Still, he was esteemed by fans and professionals the world over, and he often told me he was very grateful for the support he received from them over the past few years" recalled Dini upon DeCarlo's death. <ref>[http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=688 Dan DeCarlo dead at age of 82: Artist defined Archie Comics style for decades], [[Comic Book Resources]], December 20, 2001</ref>
As circunstâncias exatas da criação de Josie se tornou a trama de um processo envolvendo o Sr. DeCarlo e a [[Archie Comics]] logo antes do desenho virar filme Josie e as gatinhas, de 2001, pela MCA/Universal. DeCarlo disse que criou a personagem por conta própria no final da década de 1950 e tentou vendê-la como "Here´s Josie". Pelo menos obteve uma resposta. No meio da disputa, a editora terminou o contrato com ele. Entre seus trabalhos finais temos uma história para o título independente de Paul Dini, chamado "Jingle Belle", e histórias para a "Bongo Comics", "The Simpsons" e "Bart Simpson". "Foi trágico chegar numa idade onde muitos cartunistas são reverenciados como tesouros por muitos editores, Dan se sentiu mais usado pelas editoras do que reverenciado pelas suas contribuições. Ainda estava cercado de fãs e profissionais do mundo todo, e sempre foi grato a mim pelo apoio dado nestes tempos difíceis <ref>[http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=688 Dan DeCarlo dead at age of 82: Artist defined Archie Comics style for decades], [[Comic Book Resources]], December 20, 2001</ref>.
