Bozo is the first pantomime-style comic strip, was created by the cartoonist Francis X. Reardon (with the pen name Foxo Reardon, or FoXo Reardon), who penned it beginning from 1921, until his death in 1955. Bozo is called America's original pantomime comic strip. Bozo ran both as a daily comic strip as well as on Sundays.
The word "bozo", that was practically unknown in the 1920s, was popularized by the cartoonist Foxo Reardon through this weekly newspaper strip, decades before the appearance of Bozo the Clown. (da Wikipedia).
