Save 15% on The Broons and Oor Wullie Calendars for 2022 – but you need to be quick!

The Broons and Oor Wullie Calendars 2022

DC Thomson’s strips The Broons and Oor Wullie are Scottish favourites in the weekly Sunday Post newspaper’s Fun Section since 1936. Indeed, in showing that humour comic strips could be popular with the newspaper’s readership, they paved the way for the launch of, firstly, The Dandy in 1937 and then The Beano in 1938.

The artistic creator of both The Broons and Oor Wullie in 1936 was Dudley D Watkins, who would continue to draw both strips, as well as many others for the company, until his untimely death in 1969.

DC Thomson have been producing calendars for both strips for many years, as Richard Sheaf has documented over on The Boy’s Adventure Comics blog with The Broons here and Oor Wullie here.

For 2022, both calendars feature artwork by Watkins, with each month displaying either a selection of strip panels or a single panel from each strip sensitively coloured from the original published black and white.
