I bet you thought this month would be all about
Captain America, huh? Well, who else did you think would be featured on a July calendar
that you can print out and hang on your wall because it works this month, too,
Doctor Octopus?*
Naw, instead devote your attention instead to the mildly marvelous magical Doctor Strange as he fights
Sandman Nightmare, then spend the whole month staring at important events in the Marvel Universe like Bardo Mordo's birthday and Dormammu's Bar Mitzvah. Now he is a
man (with a head that's on fire).

* Stay tuned in October for
Doctor Octoberpus!
If it's not Colan, it's a darn good imitation.
ReplyDeleteLooks Colan/Giacoia to me.
ReplyDeleteI had that calendar -- you better believe that's Colan. Apparently I loved it so much I came across the calendar's pages in with some old files of mine!
