From Your Calendar Bull: Calendars for January 2022 and the whole dang year, actually!


cover of Popular Comics #13 (Dell, February 1937), artists unknown

Happy New Year! Well, I'm a little late, but I know you've been awaiting patiently (I hope) the beginning of my posts for Calendars from Past Comics Books That Work in 2022! That means (checks my handy clockwork wind-up Perpetual Calendar copyright 1907 by Smith & Tinker, Inc.) any calendar for 1949, 1955, 1966, 1977, 1983, 1994, 2005, or 2011...the Golden Age of Comics! (And, uh, the other ones.)

All of these you can cut out from your computer (please turn the power off first) and paste them up on your wall for January 2022 (or, as mentioned above, the whole dang year) for everyday calendarin' enjoyment! Note: before you use scissors, please get the permission of a parent or guardian or the nearest otter.
