Stan Lee, an innovative creator, screenwriter, and publisher for Marvel Comics, unfortunately, passed away earlier this week at the age of 95. It has been reported that he died early Monday morning at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles. The late writer, whose intelligence was undeniable, is credible for creating iconic superheroes such as Spider-Man, Thor, Iron Man, Black Panther, the Fantastic Four, and even the X-Men. Despite his recent passing, Stan Lee’s contributions to the comic world will never be forgotten. His imaginative comic books and even his fun cameos in Marvel movies really made Stan Lee a special and loved person.
Many actors and actresses took this devastating news to media platforms and expressed their grief over his passing as well. Chris Evans, most renown for his role of Captain America, put out a heartfelt message saying, “There will never be another Stan Lee. For decades he provided both young and old with adventure, escape comfort, confidence, inspiration, strength, friendship, and joy. He exuded love and kindness and will leave an indelible mark on so, so, so many lives. Excelsior!!”

Hugh Jackman, the man who plays Wolverine, also went to Twitter and tweeted, “We’ve lost a creative genius. Stan Lee was a pioneering force in the superhero universe. I’m proud to have been a small part of his legacy and …. to have helped bring one of his characters to life.”

The people who took part in his ingenious productions weren’t the only ones mourning Lee’s passing, but his fans were extremely devasted as well, with one fan saying, “It’s the sad passing of an icon. There will not be another man like Stan in this industry for quite some time. He was instrumental in the creation of so many of the stories that are used in comics and multimedia. He will be missed.” It couldn’t be any clearer how greatly Lee impacted the lives of many. He made dreams come true and he created a whole new world for those with an imagination.
Stan Lee’s influence on comics and entertainment surely spread worldwide, but only through Marvel was he able to create his career and name. Not only did he connect with the world through his comics, but he also connected directly with his fans, creating a personal relationship with those who looked up to him so dearly. Stan Lee wanted to inspire the imagination of his audience so we could make the world a better place, and for that, his legacy will stick around forever.
