Marvel Comics Legend Stan Lee Passes Away at Age 95

Itβs a sad day for comics fans, gamers, and those within the geek community today as the legend behind the creation of many different Marvel Comics superheroes, Stan Lee, has passed away at the tender age of 95
Born Stanley Martin Lieber on 28th December 1922, Stan Lee began work for Timely Comics in 1939 as an assistant. He would start to write and create characters in the 1940s. It wasnβt until the 1960s where he would make his biggest mark as Timely Comics would be rebranded to the Marvel Comics we know and love today.
In collaboration with several artists includingΒ Jack KirbyΒ andΒ Steve Ditko, he co-created a wide array of superheroesΒ includingΒ Spider-Man, theΒ Hulk,Β Doctor Strange, theΒ Fantastic Four,Β Daredevil,Β Black Panther, and theΒ X-Men.Β With co-writerΒ Larry Lieber on the other hand, he helped create Ant-Man,Β Iron ManΒ andΒ Thor.
Stan Lee married Joan Clayton Boocock on 5th December 1947, with the couple continuing their relationship until 6th July 2017 due to Joanβs passing.

There was a point in time where he created companies such as Stan Lee Media and POW! Entertainment. However, he did go back to Marvel to make plenty ofΒ cameo appearances in the Marvel Cinematic Universe as many different characters. However, itβs not limited to just that as he has even made a cameo appearance in the PS4 Marvelβs Spider-Man game. Above is a screenshot of him which I personally took while reviewing the game.
Itβs no secret that this man made huge contributions which helped made Marvel Comics what it is today. It is a sad day for the industry as a whole, as we lost a man who has done so much and wants to continue doing more. May he rest in peace.
Pokdepinion: Not gonna lie, I couldnβt help shake the feeling that it was another hoax but unfortunately, it was true. Rest in peace, Stan Lee, and for one last time, Excelsior!
