Bozo by Foxo Reardon for September 28, 2023

1. Bozo is always one to help, but Umbrella Guy is all wet.

2. Bozo is just passing through, but Umbrella Guy is taking a shower.

3. Bozo is making sure the other climbers are pacing themselves. Fuzzy the Umbrella Guy has outpaced the others.

1. Me mum taught me to be polite. 2. Fat cops could run back in the day. 3. Rock of ages – cleft for me – let me snooze (hide) myself in thee.

1) Well, still helping… ☺ – Fuzzy ☂️❤️ closed his umbrella to better enjoy the rain

2) Thanks, Madame. ☺ – Fuzzy ☂️❤️ is enjoying a personal downpour

3) ☺ Bozo is resting while Fuzzy ☂️❤️ is already at the top!

1ˢᵗ Bozo would like to help but he’s much too short to lift all those big bags.

2ⁿᵈ Coming through. No time to wipe our feet.!

3ʳᵈ The clothing colors and patterns show us how many climbers there are. It’s three ~ Bozo’s not a climber today!

I’m going to disappear for a few days, me and the missus going on a trip. I will keep up on my comics, but probably not comment because I’ll be using my phone. Anyway, don’t panic, I will be back to irritate everyone as soon as I can.

3 – Bozo’s just giving the climbing party a head start, before tunneling through the mountain to meet up with them on the way down.

1. Granny walks a rain-soaked road. Bozo lifts the lightest load.

2. Thoughtful Bozo rings the bell. Fat cop makes him run like hell.

3. Climb the mountain he cannot. Bozo’s tied the tightest knot.

1- Every little thing helps a little.

2- I’ve had several dreams where the only way to continue through the street is by going through somebody’s house. Usually just one division of the house, but you have to enter a door, and come out another, and that’s the street.

1 If a strange little man pops up in a rainstorm and offers to take your bags, you might settle for him holding the umbrella too. (Stormy Weather — Dinah Washington)

2 Bozo will see himself out if you’ll just let him in. (Who Walks In When I Walk Out — the Firehouse Five Plus Two)

3 Bozo takes a moment to smell the edelweiss. (Climb Every Mountain — The Sound Of Music)

1. Bozo always glad to helps.

2. Toll free short cut.

3. All this climbing is make me tired.

…

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!

…

And yes 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 ever entertaining ever energetic ever enjoyable ever excellent evergreen entertainer, the brilliantly beautiful and beautifully brilliant BOZO!

And yes of course many thanks to Michael Reardon for bringing back BOZO for us all!

1. Unhelpful hand

2. Hot pursuit

3. Halted progress

Assistant, not helper. By your leave, ma’am. Eidle-wise guy. Lead, follow, or get out of the way, but stop holding up the show, there Captain Anchor.

Seems Fuzzy’s umbrella isn’t opened in the rain….

Bozo needs to brush up on really helping someone! Lol

Fuzzy is playing with the hose now…

Comin through…..gang way…..

Looks like Fuzzy climbed his mountain…now if only Bozo would get going….he’s holding up the gang! ☺️

1) Bozo’s willing to help Granny home from the storm, but his reach can only go so high.

2) Mrs. McPherson didn’t realize her house was part of the route for the 1947 Running of the Flatfoots!

3) Bozo’s conserving his energy for the final ascent.

ALWAYS THE GENTLE MAN= Bozo is a gentleman, sadly sometimes the Mighty Mite comes up Short. Speaking of coming up short, well SHORT CUT= Bozo rang the door bell, but Ole Buttons just ran on in. TIME OUT= I guess Foxo added this panel to show that Bozo needed a rest after the “ACTION PANELS” ….Bozo was climbing up, but after all the action, he needed to settle down for a Snooze!

A gold mine of comedy here today . Fuzzy and his umbrella doing the unexpected and a climbing gag that hits home reminding me of my halcyon days of youth .

1) Bozo just wanted to make use of the umbrella for himself too. Because Fuzzy would not be of any assistance.

2) The ruse did not work against the constable.

3) Fuzzy took a wrong turn and ended-up on the summit of the next mountain.

To say it in Michael Reardon’s usual words: “Great comments” ☺

1) Hang Me Up To Dry – Cold War Kids 2) Leave the Door Open – Silk Sonic 3) How Do You Sleep? – Sam Smith

How remiss of me to not notice . In “Time out” Bozo is napping during the first ascent of Mount Reardon while Fuzzy has already attained the summit of the perilous FOXO Pinnacle.

1) LEND A HELPING UMBFELLA: Older woman waiting in the rain loaded with packages. Bozo lends a hand by use of his small umbrella. What a guy!

2) PASS THROUGH: Another police chase on foot of Bozo for a minor offense. An open door allows Bozo and O’Malley to just run through her house out the back door. What?

3) NAP TIME: Mountain climbing, and Bozo is gold bricking taking a snooze with the rope line tied off on a small tree.
