Bozo by Foxo Reardon for September 05, 2023

1. That charm wasn’t so lucky for Bozo.

2. The heck with watching your hat and coat, Bozo should have watched his food.

3. Bozo scored and fouled at the same time.

1ˢᵗ Variations on a theme: I like the way Foxo reuses the same idea in different ways. Today Bozo discards a worthless lucky charm and misses finding a discarded five dollar bill. Now jump back to October 30, 1952 and see how Bozo tries to retrieve a lost coin from a storm grate and ends up finding a lost fiver. Foxo often reimagines a scene without making it seem repetitive. Finding those gems adds to the fun of reading Bozo.

2ⁿᵈ Watch your hat, your coat, and your soup!

3ʳᵈ If you run, the chase is on. Bozo ought to know that by now.

1: Back in the day when a fiver was worth something.

1) Today, Lady Luck choose the other guy. Next time ⭐, Bozo ☺ – Fuzzy ☂️❤️ is running, perhaps to catch a ride on a car hood or on a bus roof ♡

2) Bozo has just arrived, Fuzzy ☂️❤️ has just left and so Bozo’s meal ☺

3) Everyone wants a piece of Bozo ☹️☺ – Fuzzy ☂️❤️ is shouting “Run, Bozo, run!”

1 Bozo’s a wee short to have spotted the fiver. Better luck next time. (Good Luck Charm — Elvis Presley)

2 Bozo gets saved from a bad case of indigestion and gets to keep his hat. (How Lucky Can You Get? — Bing Crosby)

3 And now Bozo’s really going places. (Yakety Sax — Boots Randolph)

@Gweedo it’s legal here Murray

Nice! Quite the set! Thank you! :)

You’re welcome, Imp. And to everyone else thank you for the Likes. Much appreciated.

1. Bozo found a lucky charm and threw it all away. Stranger reached into the can and found his lucky day.

2. Bozo hangs his hat up. Takes the sign to heart. Turns to ladle up his soup but has no meal to start.

3. Rush the ball out to the street where there are cops with clubs to beat.

1. What luck!

2. And watch your foods too.

3. The game has just beguns.

While most other cartoonist doing a gag a day dailies would gives a simple scene, FoXo went a mile ahead and rendered a beautiful three dimensional scene of the restaurant. Just looks at the depth of the scene with BOZO and his table in foreground and the background. Even indoor scenes is three dimensional! FoXo always give three dimensional scene on two dimensional paper.

For those who come in late, these fabulous fun funnies was envisioned and executed so beautifully and brilliantly by FoXo Reardon, a true master cartoonist who told his funny tales with his awesome artwork alone, without any of his characters in BOZO ever saying a single word.

An especially excellent epitome of pictures speaking thousand words, BOZO also the most pleasant picturesque pantomime where every panel is like a photograph of a three-dimensional cartoon world of realistic-looking depths and details. Such was his powerful perspective artwork which brought to life a lovely lively world of BOZO!

Fabulous FoXo may be unfortunately unsung these days but it not make him any less fabulous.

FoXo a rare combination of both sharp wits and artistic talents which is rarely seen together in the same cartoonist, a true master and professional cartoonist whose work quality speaks for itself and as you can see for yourself BOZO is pure gold coming from a golden era of cartooning! More about FoXo and BOZO in the About page.

So no wonder that these wonderful wordless wonders still bring great joy and sheer cheer to many even today.

But despite being a great classic of great creative calibre, neither BOZO nor FoXo are much known or remembered these days.

Spread the word, friends, so that BOZO can spread more joy and cheer to many many more!

…

& of course another big thumbs up, big applause, and three cheers once again for the marvellous master FoXo’s magnificent masterpiece, the most pleasant picturesque pantomime, the

1. Fickle fate

2. Soup swipe

3. Foot pursuit

“Out of Bounds” – out of the frying pan and into the fire .

Always look before throwing.Bozo….you just never know…

Ha! Next time pay attention Bozo…can’t trust anyone….

It not the win or loss it’s how you play the game…OY!

Lucky dunk. High hat. Home run, home. I’ve rarely left my hat or coat on the rack or the hangers of any establishment over the years. I wonder if that watch your hat and coat sign worked so well, we don’t need it anymore?

From the rear, at least, Soup Thief might be Fuzzy’s twin brother.

1) One man’s disbelief is another man’s five bucks!

2) Fuzzy seems to like Bozo’s soup so much, he helped himself!

3) BOZO…GOES…ALL…THE…WAY…and keeps going with at least four flatfeets giving chase!

2. I thought it WAS Fuzzy stealing the soup but he IS in panel 2 with the soup thief

Mr. Umbrella/Fuzzy: He is in the 1st strip in the 1st panel running away like shucker-dunes. Did he coat the $5 buckaroonies with poison to make Mr. Umbrella/Fuzzy sick as a joke? Hmmm.

NON-Believer-I guess Bozo is like a lot of us, nothing is free, no chance of getting lucky. But the rule is your not going to win unless you play. DISAPEARING ACT-Looks like the “old slight of hand” get your attention as the take away happens when your not looking. OUT OF BOUNDS- Bozo is running for the Touch Down, Ole Buttons is running for Bozo thinking he stole the football. Got to run too many to withstand the tackle.
