ANACOZECA Associacao NAcional dos CObradores do ZÉ CArioca (something like "National Association of Jose Carioca's Debt Collectors"). In the first stories there were no fixed characters, but after some time they were reduced to four recurrent birdbeaks almost look-alike: Arlindo (tall), Asdrúbal (tall), Arnaldo (short) and Tadeu (short). There were also a mysterious leader, who after some time has been revealed to be Rocha Vaz, Rosinha's father who dislikes JOC. In recent stories, the aforementioned four ANACOZECA members still appear sporadically with no leadership.
