Remember, each day, click on that day's door to see what cover is for that day (you can also continue to look at previous day's covers), all the way until the #1 cover, on Christmas Eve!!

Right on. But why is that first cover one of the 24 best? It seems pretty basic and straightforward.

"Right on. But why is that first cover one of the 24 best? It seems pretty basic and straightforward."
I think it may have been chosen in tribute to the late Mike Wieringo, although admittedly 'Ringo did draw some much more vibrant covers than that one in his time.

I think it was one of the 24 best of this past year, but yeah, I'll admit, there were a couple of covers really close (I narrowed down from 36 to 24), and the fact that Ringo passed away may have been a deciding factor.
Still, I did pick that cover as my #1 for the month it came out. So simple, yet so strong.

Will this be "stickied" (or the equivalent thereof) to ensure it's always on top? Or, will a new calendar be posted daily? Or...?

New Calendar every day, but effectively, I guess it'll be LIKE a sticky.

Brian, this is a great idea. I get an advent calendar every year, and now I get two!

This is awesome, Brian! I really liked that Spider-Man/FF cover, too. Cool concept, executed very simply.

Really cool idea, but wouldn't it be better to feature Christmas covers throughout the years? Just a thought

good stuff, but advent calendars test my patience. This will be the first one that I can't skip ahead. Damn it!!

Cool! I'm hoping that x-mas day has an image of Scott Pilgrim's head on a stake!
