Bozo by Foxo Reardon for March 04, 2024

1. The lady’s cigarette case was empty. Bozo, ever the gentleman, offered her one of his.

2. Bozo knows that some light reading can put one to sleep.

3. Bozo shows us he has a caring heart.

You know, for a moment I thought her cigarette case was a cell phone! Then I remembered this was a better time—before those dam things.

1) Good day to quit. ☺

2) Sleep well, Bozo. Hi, Fuzzy ☂️❤️

3) Nice Bozo ♡

1 – It’s not all that unusual for a gentleman to start passing out cigars in a waiting room.. but you have to wonder what a lady might be doing in there with the expectant fathers.

1. Ran out of stuff to smoke?

Take mine before you run amok

2. The silence in the library

Makes me high and then sleepy

3. That’s NOT I tell emphatically

How “cross-dressing” is supposed to be

1 What are you waiting for Bozo, make your move already. (Waiting For A Girl Like You — Foreigner)

2 Bozo took a shortcut to the top of the stacks and found just what he was looking for in a book. Don’t Worry ‘Bout Nuttin’ by Bozo. (I Could Write A Book — Frank Sinatra)

3 Bozo should have gone for a second pair of pants. (Sharp Dressed Man — ZZ Top)

1~ She’s there to see about her cough.

2~ It looks like Bozo booked a room for the night.

3~ New clothes for all! At least the kid looks sharp!

1. Here haves a ceegar while you is waits.

2. Bozo don’t worry about nuttin!

3. Bozo poor. But he gots a heart of gold. :’-)

…

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!

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!

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 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 thankses to Micheal Reardon for bringing BOZO back for us all!

And wishing a speedy recovery and all the best of health for him.

1. Please Me Lady, try one of mine. Hand rolled from Tobacco warehouse floor sweeping by me. 2. Bozo goes to the Library daily for inspiration. 3. Lord shed a tear over Bozo’s Charity = Love.

1. Have no fear. Here, my dear.

2. No need to worry. Not in a hurry.

3. Everybody’s crazy ’bout a sharp dressed man. Bozo makes a switch-a-roo. Does all that he can.

1. Stogie offer

2. Upper shelf sleeping

3. Suit swap

1) Need a smoke? Bozo’s happy to oblige.

2) Bozo needed a good place to come in and doze, not browse.

3) This kid needed new clothes worse than Bozo did.

All three show the qualities and character of a true gentleman . Bozo you’re alright ! Even that one in the bookstore . Bozo is being unobtrusive .

HIS BRAND- Ah the lovely lady has no cigarettes, ah Bozo offers a full cigar (Bozo only likes stubs.) Today the office would be NO SMOKING! BOOK WORM- Ah Bozo has found the right book and right spot for absorption of the TOME! CLOTHES MAKE THE MAN- Title says it all, our Mighty Mite with a big heart rather make a child happy, than strut the stuff!

Note the title of the book “Don’t Worry ‘bout Nuttin’” – Bozo is a fast leaner.

Bozo is thoughtful, kind and learned.

Stogies ain’t for ladies! ☺️

Bozo is at the height of his reading…

Bozos such a swell guy! Generous and I think he liked the kids hat better….LOL

Did the clothing salesman say “YYYYEEEEESSSSS???” as Bozo walked in?

Bozo’s numbers have been jumping since I was away, now 1204 and climbing. And remember, these are all genuine Bozo subscribers as Bozo is in no way connected to social media. Most GoComics comics are so connected to social media as I was told by my contact person at GoComics some two years ago. In other words those huge numbers you see might just be just numbers a creator or producer attaches from his/her social media account, while in reality such people might never view the strip/panel at all. Thanks to all Bozo subscribers: Michael Reardon, producers of Bozo on GoComics and son of the late cartoonist.

Can anyone read the author’s name in middle strip? Several have cited the volume’s title but I can’t quite make out the bottom line

#2: Several years ago a friend bought a used sideways-rolling ladder like the one in the strip. Later when he built a new house he added tall built-in book shelves with a low 4-foot high crawl space above the top shelf, and a rail to support the top of the ladder. The space has carpeting, pillows, and a reading light. His kids loved it and now his older grandkids do too.

1) Smokin’ – Boston 2) High on a Mountain Top – Loretta Lynn 3) Little Lion Man – Mumford and Sons

1. Close, but no cigar.

2. Bozo’s hidaway.

3. Bozo suits the boy.
