    Tis true, he's gone. Good to see he reaped the benefit of his creativity in his last years.

    He seemed like a man that would live forever... Marvel movies just won't be the same without his guidance and little cameos. RIP

    I think he's done his cameos for Captain Marvel and the next Avengers. I think the Netflix shows have shown how it'll be in the future with pictures to spot in the background

    The movies are as mainstream as can be, nowt nerdy about liking them.

    Comics are a perfectly valid source material, dealing with various topics.

    Anyway, RIP Stan.

    With the amount of success that Marvel has brought Disney they should stick a statue of him up beside Walt or at least somewhere.


    Wonder if he had any more cameos left, are we going to get a bitter sweet last one in something.

    Was never a comic book fan and superhero movies arent my cup o'tae.

    However, Stan Lee was a legend and lived like one for a long time. He always seemed to make time for his fans and liked a cameo.

    I always envisioned Stan Lee as the innocent alter ego of Hugh Hefner.


    R.I.P Stan the man.

    If he had went before the "Snap" that would have been a brilliant ending, tear the guts out of people.

    CGI, and confirm he's one of The Collectors, and Stan's your uncle.

    He did a interview and talked about his wife, Marvel released this right after his wife passed.

    Thought it was longer but he survived his wife by a year and 4 months.

    An absolute legend, will be missed. But he lived to a ripe old age of 95 doing what he loved to the end.

    RIP Stan.

    Stan Lee the Legend :(

    Proposed to his wife two weeks after dating and married 70 years until her death last year :(
    A rare story in Hollywood.

    RIP Mr. Lee

    The sad passing of a Legend, the likes that will never be seen again.

    I remember as a kid in the eighties reading marvel comics , it was a picture
    to another world , I loved reading the Bullpen Bulletins page at the back of the comics were kids use to send in letters to Stan Lee and he would reply back.

    Exciting times to see the comic geek world balloon into such a Global world success.

    R.I.P Mr Stan Lee.
