See it big here- http://dusty-abell.deviantart.com/art/Retro-
Marvel-Comics-Calendar-for-May-2016-604164144
This is my take on updating the CLASSIC Marvel Comics
Calendars from the the mid 1970's that I grew up loving as a kid,
particularly the 75', 76' (Bicentenial Year inspired artwork in that
one was crazy fun) and 77' releases. Unfortunately the format
was abandoned in the early 80's which has given way to 25 years
worth of pretty uninspired calendar releases if you ask me. Well,
this is what i'd want to see up on my wall and I hope you might
enjoy it a bit as well. Do a search online too see what the
"original" calendars looked like to see what I was going for. The
corny lines were DEFINITELY part of the original as were the
creators Birthdays, which was when the veil behind the scenes of
comic books was first parted for me, offering a glimpse of the
creators who produced the comics I loved so much.
I hadn't done one of these in 3 years and just had the urge to do
another one. I hadn't used the color green yet as an accent color
so that made using the Hulk as the main illustration a pretty
straight forward proposition. When I found this excellent
throwback style Hulk piece by Bruce Timm, I knew I had the focal
point I needed to build the rest of the month around. A dream
would be to have Marvel commission me to actuall produce a
whole year of these for an OFFICIAL Calendar release, I know all
the Fans Of Old Marvel would love it!!!I'm using some of my
favorite illustrations by many of my favorite artists in the comic
book business, often little seen commissions and rarer published
material that may have been relegated to a back cover or used in
the commercial advertising end of the industry. This piece
includes a magnificent splash piece of The Hulk by artist Bruce
Timm and various pin-ups, clip art and comic art by Chris
Samnee , Paul Smith, Don Perlin, Sal Buscema, Michael Golden,
John Paul Leon, Steve Rude, Jack Kirby & John Byrne.
Download it and tack it up on your wall, it's the next best thing
we'll unfortunately probably never see officially.
The Anya Corazon Spider-Girl (the only Mexican/American Marvel
superhero of note I could find surprisingly) was drawn by
sirdefnesaur here on deviantart and @ sirdef on Tumbler.

Don't forget to download the image for the best resolution
possible if you print this off to put up on your wall!
