Bozo by Foxo Reardon for November 12, 2021

1 Bozo politely offers his seat to a lady.

2 Bozo (and the cop) are rounding up strays.

3 My aren’t the beggars getting fancy?

The least surprising part is the first strip, where a man dressed like a clown for no reason was licking his lips and sweating profusely at the idea of being wedged between two unsuspecting bystanders.

1. A Streetcar Named “Do Sit Here” (if you can squeeze in, lady)

2. bring one, get a dozen for free in exchange

3. what a COINcidence you’re beggin’ here! Hats off!

Suggested missing daily titles:

1 – Squeeze Right In

2 – Learned From the Master

3 – Check? Mate!

2nd batch in a row without comments after the Bozo title. I think those were added by someone from the syndicate and not Foxo.

1. Have a seat, ma’am. This reserved for your size.

2. Doggie brought his new pals home. Say, what’s a S.P.C.A. means?

3. Here ya goes, ya poor unfortunate fellow. Bozo think this guy is on rented suit too.

…

And of course, a big thumbs up and a big hand for Foxo’s marvellous masterpiece, the picturesque pantomime, the wordless wonder called Bozo. A fun comic whose awesome artwork is unparalleled. In both pantomime comics and daily funnies, Bozo is undoubtedly unparalleled.

Gentleman. Gentle man. Gentile man?

Caption suggestions:

1) It’s the thought that counts.

2) Who let the dogs out?

3) Bozo’s Fashion Tip.

1. Here lady, I felt pressured to give you my seat.

2. Bozo’s pup instigated a pound break. Must be Bozann’s picture on the wall.

3. No matter where you go, you can’t seem to be able to get away from the bums.

⓵ I’d sure like to see panel 5!

⓶ After seeing previous strips I can’t figure out if Bozo likes dogs or not. But they sure like him!

⓷ Mr. Rich isn’t sure why our Bozo is standing there, and we’re not too sure either!

1 I’m picturing rather a lot of hip action.

2 They recognize him as a fellow mutt.

3 He’s waiting for Bozann to finish freshening up in the Ladies’ Room.

My Mother would be proud of Bozo for offering his seat to the lady (even though it also had another reason. When I was around 5 or 6, Mother and I rode the bus to town. If a lady or an elderly person would come, I knew to offer my seat to them. (Secretly I enjoyed hanging onto the pole in the center, pretending I was a fireman.)

Even though Bozo is a ladies man, he has his true love Bozanne’s photo in his bedroom. Makes you wonder if he entertains on the side, her picture comes down.

1) Chivalry at Large: Crowded cars with big men and women. Bozo offers his seat to another wide bodied matron to sit.

2) Doggonit!: Bozo takes the dog we saw yesterday to the S.P.C.A. unfortunately the dog loves him so much he breaks out and brings the rest of them to Bozo’s bed!

3) Hat’s Off!: Bozo in his upper class finery is hatless, another member offers his hat, and Bozo tosses him a coin!

In strip #3, panel #2, Bozo’s cane appears to be in the mouth of the Hat & Coat manager and Bozo’s hat seems to be on his head.

The strip’s surrealist ambience boggles my mind, as in panels #1 and #2, where the Hat & Coat manager appears to emerge from deep-freeze storage and takes off his heavy weatherproof coat.

Bozo appears boggled by the entire event.
