I AM IRON MAN!!!

Stan Lee

1922-2018



Stan Lee, the American comic-book writer, editor, actor, publisher, and film producer passed away back on November 12, 2018 at age 95. Earlier in his career, Stan was the editor-in-chief of Marvel Comics, as well as the Chairman. Stan is probably most famous for creating Spider-Man.


Stan Lee wore a stainless steel Rolex Datejust on an Oyster braclet and in the photo above we see his white dial with Roman numerals. Stan Lee's name is interesting because when you say his first and last name together it sounds like you are saying his name is "Stanley", even thought it's Stan Lee.


Stan Lee created and launched Spiderman with Steve Ditko's illustrations in August of 1962:


As a child I spend many afternoons watching the Spiderman cartoon on the Boob Tube...Talk about a Deja Vu sandwich!!!


Stan Lee and Marvel Comics (MC) launched The Incredible Hulk Comic Book in May of 1962.


The Incredible Hulk was adapted into a TV show in the late 1970s that featured Lou Ferigno as The Incredible Hulk. Notice in the old-school photo that Stan was wearing his stainless steel Rolex Datejust...



Marvel Comics and Stan Lee launched The Iron Man Comic Book in March of 1963.
