Hey there everyone,
I'm not sure if everybody who loves the art form of comics knows this or has even heard that in the last few weeks of September of this year that the real true granddaddy of modern comics just had a lot of missed out stuff from the summer that he felt and knew needed taking care of related to his continued days here on earth. The Granddaddy of comics is most likely to refer to himself as shavings of packaging used in mailing very delicate things such as China plates or even a rare statute be it of course a small one. It's other name is Styrofoam but the granddaddy of all comics doesn't consider his name of EXCELSIOR as that mailing package stuff what so ever!
I am of course talking of the man who has help create such "MARVELOUS characters" seen around him in the image off to the far right here STAN LEE! well as you sometimes know I can't always find it easy to sleep in the wee hours of the peek hours of late night sometimes....and last night was one of those kind of nights when at two in the morning I happen to see what was up at the website dedicated to my all time hero Spidey called the Spider-Man Crawl Space.
Where I found the photo of Lee with a cosplay gal as Princess Leia in her slave outfit from ROTJ, that acronym stands for the sixth part of Star Wars saga if you couldn't guess it? as Return of the Jedi. Anyway off to the right was captioned "If you haven't heard Stan Lee just got a peacemaker to prevent his heart from stopping. With the amount of conventions he goes to and the things he see's I'm (Bard Dougllas) glad he has a backup like Tony Stark." So whose Tony Stark your all asking right? or at least non comic fans who are reading this are thinking?
Well Robert Downy Jr recently played him in THE AVENGERS this past summer still don't know who Stark is? well maybe this scene from the first IM movie where he mistakes Lee
for another famous magazine editor better known as Hugh Hefner of the founder of "PLAYBOY MAGAZINE. And again in IM2 as a rich drunk at the bar where he tries to find out more on Justin Hammer a rival of his.......
Yet with all of this you maybe thinking of "Mister Stark " as Mister Wayne" if you read a comic which is of course Batman and he don't have no heart problems like Tony or his alter ego Ol "Shellhead "as one of Lee's many nick names for Iron Man. Whom he is standing next to for
a promoting of the first Iron Man movie. I know Batman does have broken heart like Stark does in a whole other way. I as a fan of Stan's am happy to see he did what he believes is right for not us the comic fans but because he enjoys everything he wants to do which is being the world's biggest fan of himself in a very positive way and in a way if I may borrow a line or two from Star Trek's Mister Spock you know the one I mean if your a Trek fan it goes something like this "Live Long and Propose" I have a feeling Lee just wants to give more great characters of the four colored world known as comics. I wish him the best in that as the next comic fan reads these very words........
