Book Description

November 15, 2007
In the great lineage of comic books, no one has explored heroes and villains quite like NERDCORE. In this 12-month, 2008 calendar, heroines and their evil counterparts square off in quite revealing ways a fully nude firestarter igniting her surroundings, a super lass undresses after a hard day s night of battling bad guys, and a katana-wielding vixen, wearing a headband and not much else, shows a few ninjas who s the real boss is. These are the powered-up ladies that watch over downtown Los Angeles from rooftops and can turn invisible with the snap of a finger. They are the heroes and villains of the 2008 Nerdcore calendar. In the tradition of the best-selling 2007 Nerdcore calendar, this 2008 edition reunites famed photographer Cherie Roberts and designer/artist Jason Adam, and features tasteful, giant photography of nude girls in heroic and villainous settings. Featuring geek goddess Justine Joli, former Playboy "Cyber Playmate" Jessica Kramer, and 2007 Nerdcore cover girl Karlie Montana, and many other beauties. NERD DATES - Regular and nerdy holidays, including over one hundred important holy days for geeks, including: Major movie releases like Iron Man, Speed Racer, The Dark Knight, Indiana Jones 4, Harold and Kumar 2, and The Incredible Hulk; conventions like San Diego Comic-Con, Alternative Press Expo, etc. ; anniversaries for Night of the Living Dead and more cult classics; birthdays for Stan Lee, Quentin Tarantino, Jean Luc Picard and others ; even Sarah Connor s assassination, the morning Oceanic Airlines Flight 815 departed, and the day Marty was sent back to the future. OVERSIZED DIMENSIONS - 12 inches wide x 18 inches tall (much larger than standard calendars), with a spiral binding for easy flipping and hanging. QUALITY - Printed on heavy, archival-style paper stock, as well as a glossy, UV coating, giving the calendar an extended lifespan long beyond 2008.


Editorial Reviews

Review

Last year the Nerdcore Calendar was all about 80s video games. This year the calendar taps the aesthetic of comic books. But don't worry you still have an excuse to buy one if you're a gamer. They've made sure to include dozens of important gaming dates in there, like the day of Atari's incorporation. --Kotaku

For all you guys out there, the second Nerdcore calendar is available. Personally, I love movies, games and girls so this is just awesome. I give a huge props to everyone who created this calendar. If you have not heard of the Nerdcore calendar before, you are in for a treat. Imagine sexy ladies posing while playing video games or as your favorite superhero in the nude. Very HOT! --The Blog Connection

Following up on last year s 2007 Nerdcore Calendar (which featured shapely young women playing video games in the nude or near-nude) this year s upcoming 2008 Nerdcore Calendar moves to the literary domain of most nerds; comic books. More specifically, female heroes and villains. Or as the calendar description says, ...heroines and their evil counterparts square off in quite revealing ways; a fully nude firestarter igniting her surroundings, a super lass undresses after a hard day s night of battling bad guys, and a katana-wielding vixen, wearing a headband and not much else... However this calendar is not just an excuse to indulge in fanboy fantasies. The 12-month calendar makes note of the usual, everyday holidays, but also includes over one hundred important holy days for geeks, including: Major movie releases like Iron Man, Speed Racer, The Dark Knight, Indiana Jones 4, Harold and Kumar 2, and The Incredible Hulk; conventions like San Diego Comic-Con, Alternative Press Expo, etc; anniversaries for Night of the Living Dead and more cult classics; birthdays for Stan Lee, Quentin Tarantino, Jean Luc Picard and others; even Sarah Connor s assassination, the morning Oceanic Airlines Flight 815 departed, and the day Marty was sent back to the future. --Athena Guides

5.0 out of 5 stars Most Awesome Calendar Ever!!!, December 4, 2007
This review is from: 2008 Nerdcore Calendar: Heroes/Villains (Spiral-bound)
I'll keep this short: every year the passes, the Nerdcore calendar only gets better. Hell, it's not like any other calendar. It's big (12x18 inches), it's printed on quality paper, and even after the year passes, it's still worth holding onto. The 'Nerdy Holidays' are the coolest part -- lots of interesting dates from major movie releases to comic book anniversaries to, one of my personal favorites, the day Marty went back to the future. The guys who made these are really, real dorks. I'd recommend this has a gift to every, single one of your geeky friends... or just buy a whole bunch for them.
