Legendary Comic Book Creator Stan Lee Dies at 95

November 12, 2018

Comic book writer, editor, and pop culture icon Stan “The Man” Lee has passed away at the age of 95.

Co-creator of such Marvel Comics iconic characters as the Black Panther, Spider Man, the X-Men, and Thor, Lee was the face of the comic book industry.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, “Lee died early Monday morning at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles” a family representative told the publication.

Further reported by the Hollywood Reporter, “His way of doing things at Marvel was to brainstorm a story with an artist, then write a synopsis. After the artist drew the story panels, Lee filled in the word balloons and captions. The process became known as “The Marvel Method.”

“Lee collaborated with artist-writer Kirby on the Fantastic Four, Hulk, Iron Man, Thor, Silver Surfer and X-Men. With artist-writer Ditko he created Spider-Man and the surgeon Doctor Strange, and with artist Bill Everett came up with the blind superhero Daredevil.”

Rest in Power Mr. Lee.
