Who's the greatest character to come out of Marvel?
Stan Lee of course. Without that giant we wouldn't have all those other giants we see in comic books and on the silver screen.
R.I.P. Stan Lee
At first it was a shock but it's been amazing to see how much he has been celebrated the last two days.
Not many people can say they lived a full life like Stan.
Eager to see his final cameos in Avengers 4 and Captain Marvel.
I'm also keen now to read his autobiography. Anyone else read it and if so how was it?
I'm here on this messageboard because the Marvel Comics (both US and UK) kept me into Transformers long after I might have otherwise moved on.
The only thing I'm into that comes close to my love of Transformers, is my love of the X-Men comics.
Without Stan Lee's work in establishing Marvel Comics - as I've know it since 1986 - I might not have either of these two things that have meant so much to me.
I'm feeling oddly detached to this news. I would have liked to have met him like so many others have at a convention but the opportunity never presented itself.
His contributions to comics and story telling are massive. 95 is a good innings and he's managed to maintain some semblance of fitness up until very recently, a very full life he has led.
I remember when he was at Supanova where I managed to get a print signed. He was a trouper, staying back after official closing to get as many things signed as possible. The lines that day to meet him were absolutely crazy.
