That's some great new additions.  I read that ASM 126 hundreds of times as a kid.  I loved the Jim Mooney inks over Ross's pencils.  That calendar is my all time favorite Spider-man collectible that isn't a comic.  Still remembering buying it off the stands in th Army PX in Fort Benning, Ga.  I remember waking up every morning and reading the box for the day of the month.  Just a great memory from my 11 year old self.

To go back to that year in 78 and buy that calendar would have been awesome. It is the only non comic item I have as well. Was waiting for a nice copy to surface and scored on this one.

Oh, I'm still trying to figure out where that Spidey/X-Men image on Christmas Day first appeared.

That drove me nuts the last time I looked Reggie :insane:

I never found it in any of the obvious titles. If it was printed, it's tucked away somewhere unexpected...

Not bad Reggie, thanks. Just pottering away on comics as usual. Still can't get that 25/12 picture source. Bloody thing.

Yes, maybe the calendar is the only place it ever appeared.  It would make it unique in that sense, because nearly all of the other images are from somewhere else.

I almost want to say that George Perez month of October is my favorite from the Calendar.  Just something about having all those villains on one page.

It's a lovely colourful thing, isn't it. And always good to see the reptilian boys back together....

I think the Jackal looks pretty menacing as well.

Yes.

Dracula looks less menacing. And he seems to have a cold hooter, too:

I suppose he would though wouldn't he, being undead and everything.
