(WJBF) - Stan Lee, the creator behind many Marvel Comics characters, has died at 95.
According to TMZ, as well as The Hollywood Reporter, Lee was transported from his Hollywood Hills home Monday morning and was taken to the hospital where he later died.
Lee started at Marvel Comics (then known as Timely Comics) in 1939 as an assistant. He became editor-in-chief in '41 at the age of 19. He stay in that role until 1972 when he became publisher.
In the 1960's he, along with Jack Kirby, created a number of now legendary comic book characters beginning with The Fantastic Four and later Spider Man, Black Panther, the X-Men, The Incredible Hulk, Iron Man and many more.
But Avengers 4/Infinity War Part II is a heck of a note to close out the most brilliant career in comics on.

Again, 18 months before he resigned, Nixon had a sky-high approval rating of 67%. Harvey Weinstein was winning Oscars until one day, he definitely wasn't."-John Oliver

I'm glad that Stan Lee lived long enough to see his creations spread to other forms of media, proving that comic book stories aren't just for kids. In fact some of his stories and characters pushed the creative envelope and destroyed many stereotypes.
Yes, he lived to 95 and achieved resounding commercial and critical success by creating beloved characters who have left an indelible mark on our culture, and will remain long after he is gone. Its terrible that he's gone, but he certainly made the most of his time on this Earth.
Rest in Peace, Mr. Lee.

It didn't let me edit: they need to do a fast and the furious type send off for him, maybe the watchers calling him home or he's revealed to be the-one-above-all.
If a black-hawk flies over a light show and is not harmed, does that make it immune to lasers?
"Beware the Beast, Man, for he is the Devil's pawn. Alone amongst God's primates, he kills for sport, for lust, for greed. Yea, he will murder his brother to possess his brother's land. Let him not breed in great numbers, for he will make a desert of his home and yours. Shun him, drive him back into his jungle lair, for he is the harbinger of Death.."

They did show him talking with The Watchers in Guardians vol 2. The joke was he's Earth's Watcher.
However they show him in the Avengers and Capt Marvel, he'll be amazing. Hell, he may have already filmed the cameos for Spiderman 2, right?
........ Damn I'm gonna miss that old man.

Me: Nope, that's why I have you around to tell me.
Nitram: You -are- beautiful. Anyone tries to tell you otherwise kill them.

Nobody left an impression on the industry like he did, and the enthusiasm with which he stayed involved to the end (even if it was only cameos) was breathtaking. Rest in Peace, Stan the Man Lee, in the knowledge that your legacy flourishes

Farewall to a industry legend. Well the Stan Lee cameos will forever become portrays now.
RIP to the comic master.
