The 2012 Time Travel Calendar by Alex Griendling

The “2012 Time Travel Calendar” by graphic designer Alex Griendling is a wall calendar that lists 2.6 billion years of notable time travel events from movies, TV shows, comics, and videogames. Griendling is raising funds for the project on Kickstarter.

There are 97 different properties in the calendar. Each one has a unique icon that represents it. Some of these only show up once (Calvin and Hobbes, I’m looking at you), while others show up multiple times (Star Trek, anyone?). All together, there are 155 instances of time travel. Aside from learning about time travel movies you’ve never heard of, it’s always fun to see properties you’re familiar with line up with each other. Did you know that while Marty was saving Doc Brown from Mad Dog Tannen in 1885, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles were battling Leatherhead aboard a speeding train? Now you do.
