Bozo by Foxo Reardon for August 17, 2021

2. & 3. There are some days this commenter would rather be Phil Fumble.

1 Ignoring the peeking Tom across the street, the cop prepares for a private stakeout without that Bozo hanging around.

2 There goes the bowler budget again.

3 Think Bozann, the less Bozo packs, the more drawer space you’ll have to yourself.

Looking forward to Gent’s admirations of Foxo’s artistic genius.

Is she upset because of the bindle stiff, or because it matches her dress?

1. Get outta here. That’s my resting place!

2. Hey, lovely one. Here’s some lovely flowers for ya.

3. Bozo and Bozanne going on a cruise. Bozo only needs the bear necessities. Heh heh.

And it would be a crime to not note and praise the spectacular artwork which is drawn with spectacular perspectives in each panel of each of the comic. Each one has such realistic three dimensional depths to them.

And like Kip Williams pointed out the other day, the second one today makes efficient is of more number of but compact panels to tell the tale.

Once again, a big thumbs up for the master cartoonist Foxo Reardon and his marvellous masterpiece Bozo.

Do zoom in and view every panel while you relax, my friends. Going through these hastily does no justice to these excellently done cartoons. They’re all drawn with such great care by such talented hands. It’s a joy to see such realistic perspectives and depths in a cartoon world. The scenes depict the three dimensional depths so beautifully. Don’t take my word for it. Observe them yourself and enjoy them!

Happiness is a lamppost that’s already warmed up for you.

1. The copper so worried about his resting spot, he don’t see the peeping Umbrella Guy across the street.

2. Bozo says, “These flowers are straight from heaven”.

3. Bozo thinking, “I hope I didn’t overpack”!

how can any woman resist being serenaded under her window in the middle of the night by a schmo playing a harmonica?? Is there no romance in her soul at all???

Panel 2 kind of explains what I replied to Gent a couple days ago….here is what I posted: Being an old military guy, (a Scrounger) I would sort of be like Bozo, let Gent buy it, Borrow it, give it to my lady as a gift, and read it when courting her. No matter how bad, make it try and work. I guess “Bozo Integrity!”

(❶) “Beat it, Bozo! And the next guy I catch sleeping here is going to be in big trouble.”

(❷) “Oh, Bozo, you shouldn’t have.” Bozo: “Yeah, I was going to say the same thing to you.”

(❸) “Here are our tickets, Miss Bozann. You don’t mind if I come along too, do you?”

1) Do unto myself what others do: Bozo is just sleeping leaning on a lamp post. The beat cop rousts him away then takes over snoozing.

2) Music to anger the savage beast:Bozo plays his harmonica and angers a woman who hits him wit plant in a flower pot. Bozo turns around and gives them to her.

3) A lovely woman waiting with her luggage for the ship. Bozo as a tramp gives her her tickets for that plethora of cases.

As per the grand usual of the strip sometimes the umbrella man isn’t around. However I find the need to scrutinize every bit of Foxo’s artwork to see what other business goes on in the retreating background. It is times like these that I wish we could expand them.

3 I just hope their staterooms are bigger than Groucho’s.
