What do you say about the legend that was Stan Lee?
A man who worked on Simon and Kirby's Captain America?
Co-creator of Groot, Fin Fang Foom and a whole host of monsters for Timely's monster comics of Strange Tales, Tales To Astonish, Journey Into Mystery and Tales of Suspense?
A man who revolutionized the comic industry in 1961 with the creation of the Fantastic Four for Marvel Comics (with Jack Kirby), that led to other creations like the Hulk, Ant-Man, Dr. Doom, Iron Man, Thor, the Wasp, the Avengers, the X-Men, the Scarlet Witch, Quicksilver, the Inhumans, Black Panther and (with Steve Ditko), Spider-Man, Dr. Strange and all their fearsome foes including the Sinister Six!
A man who was there as Marvel properties found their way live on your television set, with shows like the Incredible Hulk (which had movies with Daredevil and Thor), Spider-Man, and made for TV movies Captain America and Dr. Strange? Not even mentioning the various animated features (including the Simpsons, which Stan more recently lent his voice to as well).
A man whose cameos in recent Marvel movies are legendary?
We say that Stan Lee shall forever remain, "the man". Excelsior.
Rest in peace, Stan Lee; December 28, 1922 to November 12, 2018.
