As I’ve mentioned once before, I count the days using a calendar courtesy of Cinema Sewer magazine, a publication published by cartoonist Robin Bougie that deals with all sorts of trash, from horror to porno to roller derbies and everything else your fevered little mind can imagine. The calendar is great, and I was looking forward to picking up the 2007 edition, but it looks like I’ll have to get a calendar with Ziggy instead. Illustrator Danny Hellman ponders the reason why the calendar isn’t being made over on his blog.

Bad news from the Bougieman: owing to Tower Records’ recent Chapter 11 bankruptcy, the plug has been pulled on the Cinema Sewer calendar for 2007. I’m not sure exactly what kind of arrangement Robin had with the folks at Tower; perhaps they were funding the print run, or maybe their distribution was key. In any event, Tower has pulled out, and the calendar is kaput.

The various illustrations can be found on various artists’ blogs and sties. Here’s the rundown.

The cover, a Christmas-themed page showcasing Santa Claus moonlighting as a vampire hunter, I Love Maria, Ichi The Killer, Lady Snowblood, Blood Freak, Klaus Kinski, The Foul King, The Ghost and Mr. Chicken, Majin, Rock N’ Roll Nightmare, Suburbia, and Sex and Fury.
