Comics Legend Stan Lee Dies at 95

This video offers a good recap of his life.

Stan Lee outlived Marvel Comics by about five years, so that's something.

8 It was indeed sad, if not particularly unexpected, news. Stan was a master self promoter, but a tireless fan and promoter of comics too. Like most people he was a mixed bag but overall I think a positive guy.

And yeah, Marvel Comics its so sad what those idiots in charge have done to the brand.

It's not pottery, but the most erotic clay-working movie is Camille Claudel. She's Rodin's girlfriend and they both run their hands all over each other's bodies and then turn to their lasts to work what their fingers remember into the clay.

Over and over again. Gawd that was hawt.

55 I was reading those when I was a kid. I had several #1s. (Daredevil, Thor, X-Men). Of course, they all ended up torn to shreds. It's a rule of life that things which is given to kids die like tadpoles. Comics rolled up to play tug of war with dogs. Mickey Mantle cards in the spokes of our bicycles.

But I gave up on comics when I discovered the REAL Avengers. The one with Emma Peel.

And actual problems. He has trouble making rent, his boss hates him. His crush is unrequited.

Batman had a sad backstory but he's a Trumpionaire. Superman is, well, Superman for feck's sake.

I never got into Marvel comics. I was a DC fan when I was a kid.

Same here. I started outgrowing comics shortly after Marvel started to become popular. Read a few Spidey's and Fan4s, but that was it. Marvel was new and hip and all angsty and all.
They had an attitude, much moreso than DC Comics.
And geez, I switched over to the Firefox browser and have to teach it a whole new dictionary and a lot of common words don't seem to be included, like "moreso."

Also invented a new way of putting zippers in pants that allowed pants-makers to use a continuous role of zipper. Never got any money from it, though, since he worked for the zipper company at the time.

Never knew any of that stuff until after he died.

The four stages involved the subway.

Stage 2. You say to yourself, Wait a minute. Could that be . . . ?

He had his secretary write me back with a signed letter of thanks encouraging me to continue to draw and create comics and suggested I buy a copy of his book "How to Draw Comics the Marvel Way." Pretty cool to take time to respond to a little kid.
