Amy Crehore (Boing Boing's monkey T-shirt artist) says:

The newest print set by Cloudy Collection has just been released and I am in it. In this set, there are 12 different 6"x 6" 3-color screen prints by 12 unique artists. It is a very special edition with only 50 sets available. That's right, you get 12 individual fine art prints suitable for framing in each set. This print set also happens to be a "2012 Calendar of the Impending Apocalypse". Each artist picked a month and interpreted the theme. Shown above: my own version of what would happen if a giant Krampus took over the earth (month of December).

Artists in this set include: Emory Allen, Joe Alterio, Ana Benaroya, Kali Ciesemier, Amy Crehore, David Huyck, Adam Koford, Joe Lambert, Phil McAndrew, Luke Pearson, Vincent Stall, Jaime Zollars.

    Very nice.  The style recalls illuminations in the margins of medieval manuscripts.  I’m surprised they didn’t choose as a wry touch to end the calendar on December 21st.

    Nice, but almost half the months have creative numerical layouts that make them useless as calendars, since you can’t tell what day of the week a given date falls on.

    If the world ends in 2012 I’ll be so pissed.  The second coming out of Tobias Funke is set for 2013.

    Sweet artwork, but I’m disappointed that this calendar doesn’t end on the 21st. Kinda takes a lot of the edge off it.

      I’ve made a Topless Mayan Calendar for 2012 which ends on the 21st of December.
