Bozo by Foxo Reardon for January 05, 2023

1. Apparently if you order the fish, it’s the fresh catch of the day.

2. Is this personalized umbrella insurance?

3. I got a feeling this was left over from Bozo’s doggie bag from the restaurant in strip #1.

1 It Happened in Sun Valley- Glenn Miller.

2 Bus Stop- The Hollies

3 The Race is On- George Jones

1. C. Y. O. F. (Catch your own fish)? OMG!

This way you only sell iced tea!

2. Dewdrops are falling on Boz’ head

And just like the Fuzzy-guy who uses it I think even in bed

He, too makes use of it

To keep those dewdrops from falling on his head, keep from falling…

3. A fish (from panel one?) to get the cat a-movin’

The cat to let the dog be grooving

That’s a triple hybrid power unit

Environmentally sound and neat

Comnendable and snow-smoothing

Happy Birth Anniversary, FoXo Reardon ❤

1) Well, technically it’s not “outside food”. ☺

2) Fuzzy seen twice and the Cop running for someone we can’t see. Very intriguing strip. Bozo easily solves his problem. ☺

3) I wonder if the restaurant refused to cook the fish and Bozo decided to use it in another way ☺

Bozo just keeps getting better. Have a great year everyone. And just laugh it up and pass it on. Great medicine. BOZO, my dose of morning med. Thank you dearly Mr. Reardon and family.

1. Catch of the day

2. Splash guard

3. Tobogganing

Spot on. My spot. On, Spot! huh. You know, this is one of those days where I don’t think I am spelling “Spot” correctly for some reason. Perhaps a nap is in order.

Bozos catch of the day ….should share it with Fuzzy…

Com’on Bozo! All you had to do is move over…LOL

Gasp! Fuzzy is sledding so Bozo follows suit.

1) You catch ’em, we cook ’em?

2) Bozo’s in a hurry to catch the bus, so he leaves the price tag on the umbrella, Minnie Pearl style!

3) Bozo’s ready for the sled dog/cat/fish race!

1) Blue Skies – Willie Nelson 2) Always On My Mind – Willie Nelson 3) On The Road Again – Willie Nelson

BOZO 1- Hey GAS ON! is your fish fresh? If not, I will have this one fried, with some of them fried taters. Ya got any of them biscuits back there? BOZO 2- Watch out for them icicles….they will put your eye out! BOZO 3- Sort of like the Nursery Rhyme redone: The sled follows the dog, the dog follows the cat, the cat follows the fish, and Bozo rides the sled….around and around!

1) FISH ME A FRESH ONE: At a Winter outdoor restaurant set on the lake ice Bozo decides he wants the most living fish and catches one himself after breaking the ice with his superhuman strength! But will they cook it for him?

2) NECISSITY IS THE BOZO OF INVENTION: Waiting for the bus Bozo gets ice water down his back. He goes inside and purchases a $5 umbrella. (The cops are very busy today and can run real fast for a long time now!)

3) ONE MORE SHOULD DO IT: More Winter hijinks and Bozo decides his dog Scraps needs a little help to pull his sled and gets a cat and a fish to get the cat to run faster!

Both FoXo’s sharp wits and artistic talents are in full display in above strips.

1. Me not knows whether this was a thing back then or this entirely FoXo’s imagination, but this idea of having restaurant above ice is something very interesting. Also note FoXo’s splendid perspective artwork, placing peoples, objects, and elements in different focal points from the audience, this creating a great effect which makes every panel appear like a picture of a three dimensional cartoon world of realistic-looking depths and details. And FoXo’s splendid perspective artwork is seen not only in this one but in other strips too. BOZO one of the gloriously gems from the golden era of cartooning which was unknown to many or forgotten untill now.

…

This way it always ensure that customer always has fresh fish.

…

2. Now Bozo is new umbrella guy.

3. Bozo the master of jugaad always finds a way..

…

And FoXo always ensures excellent entertainment. And why wouldn’t he for he creates each one of them with splendid skills and fantastic finesse.

So it no wonder that these wonderful wordless wonders called BOZO still comes like a fresh fragrant breeze even today after so many decades and era later and still brings great joy and sheer cheer to many.

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 more!

…

And yes, yes of course another big thumbs up big applause, and three cheers once again for the marvellous master cartoonist FoXo’s magnificent masterpiece, the most pleasant picturesque pantomime, the ever entertaining ever energetic ever enjoyable ever excellent evergreen entertainer BOZO!

Yeah, well, we’re all Bozos on this bus, amirite?
