    It's 1975 again!

    Apparently 1975 matches up with 2014 calendar-wise, so this cartoonist scanned every page of his 1975 Marvel calendar for people to download and use on their computer!

    Click this link for the article with links to the high-res scans:

    Cool! I noticed the calendar in the DC Christmas Tabloid from 74 would work as well.

                I actually rotate my 70's Marvel calendars (well, I also use '80 and '81) to mach the current year. I love these things. One year is Spiderman-specific and another is only Hulk, but they're still fun. It also only works for 7 years and there is a couple years I have to go without. Got to get my '75 back up.

                  NICE! Those would be fun calendars to follow this year! Very appropriate too with so much Mego product coming out.

                          Next year I might do this with a real calendar that matches up. The last few years the modern equivalent using vintage artwork is produced on in the UK, so I have have it imported every year.

                            these were the datys when comics were comics and comic artist knew how to draw, and the companies knew how to treat the characters. I miss those good old days.

                              At the risk of sounding like a curmudgeon, I must heartily agree. Last night, I read a John Romita Captain America & The Falcon Marvel Masterworks, and the story was so beautifully drawn and accessible to both kids and adults. There was an era when Marvel really cooked.
