The 2016 Wondermark Calendar is now available for pre-order! UPDATE: It is now sold out!
We expect them to start shipping in mid-December. Here’s a first look at the (not final) cover…
Un-Named Beasts of the Forgotten Wilds; And, The Names I Gave Them
From the Personal Diaries of Dr Priscilla Dustbin, duly recorded on her many travels to the Shadowy Corners of the Globe;
Subsequently mislabeled in the Bodleian Library, and only recently rediscovered by Quite Surprised Researchers seeking Quite Different Things;
Presented here Whole and Entire, unexpurgated, unabridged, without redaction in Any Instance;
Even when it might have been wise to Do So, for the Safety and Well-being of the Reading Public;
All entries assumed True, or, at least, Honest Observations by the Doctor of what she Thought she Saw;
Further judgment Reserved.
As in previous years, the calendar rides through the year on a special backboard, which you may re-use from previous editions if you already have one.
New for this year, every order will ship with a miniature commemorative plaque. This ‘Cast Card’ will feature a portrait of one of the calendar’s characters, along with a full list of their vital statistics. It’s sort of like a baseball card, except not about baseball, and made of wood.
This Cast Card is unique in design to the calendar offering, and one will be included free with all orders. (For those keeping track, it is Cast Card release #2. We have also done one for the Multi-Purpose Cards Kickstarter, which is shipping to backers now!)
And another thing! The very first Wondermark calendar was released December 2007. If this will be your fifth calendar (or more), we consider you a Calendar Ace! If this describes you, then you qualify for a second unique Cast Card, celebrating your achievement. It is a free gift from us, to say thank you!
I’m big on commemorative plaques this season, friends.
More details on the calendar soon… Until then, you may feel free to reserve your copy now! As always, these are strictly limited, and they sell out every year. UPDATE: THEY HAVE
