I find myself wondering if this guy could be the 1936 Homsar. Check the hat.

That sort of hat was popular in the 30's. Not only that, but this guy looks NOTHING like Homsar. He doesn't look much like the KoT, either. -Clever Ben

Well he looks more like Homsar than 'Stickly man' looks like the poopsmith. I say we put him on as Homsar. Besides, they have every other character, so I think it's quite possible whom he's supposed to be... [[User:Thunderbird L17|⇔Thunderbird⇔]] 13:17, 27 Mar 2005 (MST)

Okay, so The Bossman wears a bowler hat. So what? Many people wore that type of hat in those days, and in all honesty, I think that The Bossman looks more like the King of Town than anyone else: check the mustache, waist line, and eyes! - User:63.114.228.2

I agree with above. When I first saw this 'toon I assumed it was 1936 King of Town, because of the eyes, mustache and position (even though the king has no real power). Saying that he is "homsar" is a huge stretch. --Tony Stony 23:12, 11 May 2005 (UTC)

Please, the 2 guys even have the same eyes! Are all of you saying there is no possibility of a KoT-Bossman correlation? Yes, that interview never mentioned him, but surely the Boosman has more in common with the KoT than with Homsar or anyone else. Fishal 16:21, 17 May 2005 (UTC)

I really don't think the bowler hat indicates a relation to Homsar. The only time a bowler hat(sans Homsar) has been used as a reference to Homsar was in garage sale, since that's what TBC said in the garage sale commentary, but a bowler hat has also been used for Perducci in Dangeresque 3, and that was obviously not meant as a reference to Homsar. Given the Perducci example, I don't see why it's automatically assumed that the Bossman might have something to do with Homsar, especially since he has no other Homsar-like features. People are just too eager to leap to conclusions. --Der Pepper
