Bozo by Foxo Reardon for January 27, 2023

1. Why did the lady cross the road? To punch out Bozo!

2. Now the piano is properly tuned to match her voice.

3. You couldn’t trust the sign, could you Bozo.

1. Mean ol gwanny.

2. Background sounds gotta match the cacophony of voice. (Would still sound better than the “music” these days).

3. Bozo not expect paint on finger to dries so soon.

…

These fabulous fun funnies called BOZO always turns Crydays into fabulous Fridays!

And why wouldn’t they for they is pure gold coming from a golden era of cartooning, created by tremendously talented FoXo Reardon who never needed his characters to say a single word to tell his funny tales and told them all with his awesome artwork alone!

These excellent epitomes of pictures speaking thousand words are also drawn so skillfully that every panel looks like a photograph of three dimensional cartoon world of realistic-looking depths and details. Such was fabulous FoXo’s powerful perspective artwork.

A genuine master and true professional, FoXo’s work quality only kept improving despite his health deteriorating over time from cancer and despite losing an eye towards his end days, FoXo kept delivering fabulous funnies of splendid quality. FoXo a rare combination of both sharp humourous wits and artistic talents which is both rarely seen together in the same cartoonist.

Not takes my word for it, friends. Just zoom in an look at any of BOZO comics and see for yourself! And more about FoXo and BOZO in the About section above.

So it 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 more!

…

And 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!

1) A misunderstanding she could have easily explained before crossing. ☺

2) Bozo is good at “adjusting”. I’m glad there’s no sound. ☺

3) Skeptical Bozo, now be sure not to scratch your nose with that finger. ☺

1 Fresh! (The Little Old Lady from Pasadena—Jan and Dean)

2 Don’t just stand there. Sing! (The Sound of Music—Julie Andrews)

3 Bozo doesn’t think much of that color. ( Walk Right In, sit right down—Rooftop Singers)

1ˢᵗ ~ It’s your fault Bozo. You saw she was armed!

2ⁿᵈ ~ She has a terrible Treble!

3ʳᵈ ~ Bozo’s lie detector. He can’t lie there.

Bozo was so kind but looks like she wasn’t going that way! OUCH‼️

Although she sings soprano, Bozo likes the HonkyTonk sound!

Seeing is believing but Bozo just didn’t buy it!

Fuzzy managed to sit on a bench that was dry,

1. Cranial contusion

2. Caterwauling

3. Dubiety

1) So much for Bozo’s Good Deed For Today.

2) Here, let me adjust the piano to match your singing!

3) Darn, Bozo was going to sleep on that bench today!

{Continues from yesterday… } On another occasion Foxo accompanied Mike to the impeachment trial of a political figure. No photo taking was allowed. But the moment that the verdict was announced, Mike immediately stood up and took a picture. Within seconds he was surrounded security personnel, who demanded the photo plate. Mike, looking both flustered and angry, took a plate from the camera and slammed it to the floor, shattering it into many pieces. The next morning the photo appeared in the Times-Dispatch. Unknown to those present, Mike immediately after taking the photo, slipped the plate to Foxo, who hid it among his drawing utensils, and in the same action replaced it with a blank plate.

BOZO 1- Ah the sweet Lady thinks Bozo is a Boy Scout trying for a Merit Badge. After she sees he is a grown man, Umbrella Bang is his Badge. BOZO 2- Barney Fife’s sister is taking music lessons, poor thing her voice is flat and sharp with the piano, Bozo fixes the piano for the sharps and flats. Flow Gently Sweet Afton has never been sung so “Sweetly!” BOZO 3- And I ask you, is there not one of us who has never checked to see it was Wet Paint?

1) You’ll Never Walk Alone – Gerry & The Pacemakers 2) Sing a Song – The Carpenters 3) Paint It, Black – The Rolling Stones

1) POLITE DOESN’T MEAN YES: Bozo helps an old lady across the street. She hits him and walks back! (She was too demure to tell him “no” just to clobber him in the noggin.)

2) DISCORD DUET: Bozo’s piano isn’t in tune to the racous singer. He adjusts it to fit her discordant voice!

3) WHAT THE SIGN SAYS: Bozo reads “we paint” yet still touches it and gets paint on his finger. Well duh Bozo!

Regarding #3… if Bozo had only removed his jacket and sat down on the freshly painted bench seat his pants could have then matched with his shirt and belt. Missed opportunity for color coordination! :^)
