2020 Calendar - Week 02

We'll keep it simple this week - only one of each calendar style - just so we don't start patterns of overkill.

For our Pin-Up Calendar, we've got an Al Moore girl staying warm in winter wear, sort of...

...and our Old Magazine Covers calendar features Rolf Armstrong from January 1919...

Let me pause to remark on how much i enjoy the ... quality of light on the faces of Rolf's portraits. That's the best way i can think to phrase it, so let's take a quick look at a few to see what i mean -

It's not surprising his work was so popular and featured on many magazine covers.

We'll be seeing a fair bit of both Moore & Armstrong on this year's calendars. And we've got Earl Moran for this week's Blue Calendar, and a bit more, in our Adult Content 'back room' - The Other Voice Of ODD! Step on back past the security guard checking ages to see the uncut version of this post.

As always, the calendars are sized to print 8"x10" at 150dpi, with 1" square spaces for notations.

What Do You Call A Group Of Artists?

As noted in the subject of today's post - What do you call a group of Artists?

Since Crows already own 'Murder' i think we're going to go with a Calendar of Artists.

And here are Nine more whom we'll be seeing on next year's calendars -

Henry Clive

Ernest Chiriaka

Peter Driben

Earl MacPherson

Robert Maguire

Al Moore

Earl Moran

Zoë Mozert 

Knute O. Munson

As noted yesterday, the calendars are still being compiled so the time is good to express your preferences.

When Is We?

Welcome to November.

As the end of the year approaches, an evil (definition: much work) urge arises - to put together a 2018 Voice Of ODD! Calendar. Perhaps not surprisingly, this has led to digging through old calendars, and an entirely different calendar feature has manifested that is planned to start the last week of this year, and run for the following two years - or until the blog dies. Whichever comes first.
But more on that in a couple of months.

For this morning, just enjoy your choice of 3 different November calendars for your convenient reference. (One might be just a tad more convenient for readers of Russian)

Please do make note that next Thursday is Bill Mantlo's 66th birthday. (That pic might be a smidge out of date)

calendars from Al Moore/Esquire (1950), Extreme X3M (2006), and Mighty Marvel (1978)
