Happy New Year everyone!
Did you know calendars repeat occasionally? There’s a 28 year cycle wherein certain years will begin on the same day of the week as other years. (There’s a more detailed explanation here.) For example, 2015 has the same days and dates as the years 2009, 1998, 1987, 1981, 1970, etc… Neat, huh?
So while there’s a lot of nice 2015 calendars out there, I’m going a little old school and using this 1981 Marvel Comics calendar instead. And as long as I was scanning everything in, I thought I’d share them!
There’s some amazing work here: Bill Sienkiewicz, Joe Sinnott, John Romita Jr., Frank Miller, George Perez… WOW!
Click on the images below and you’ll get nice big 2560 x 1200 images with both the top image page and the bottom calendar page. Feel free to grab them and use them as some awesome desktop wallpapers.
Have a Marvelous 2015/1981!

[…] because it was fun and the days matched 2014. Well 2015 matches 1981, and it just so happens that Andertoons has the entire 1981 Marvel calendar up for download. Happy Christmas and New Year, Internet. […]
I noticed the bottom of March with the Hulk is cut off in the full size scan. Any way I can get a scan directly for that month? I’d like to print out my own!
