Spiderman, Iron Man, The Hulk, Daredevil, The X-Men and much more! all share one thing in common, its not the fact their all superheros with amazing powers but the more humble point of that they all share the same creator. Stan Lee along with other Artists such as Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko co-created some of the worlds most well known and loved Superheros and Villains.
Today he is well known for being one of the most well known figures in comic book history. Often wearing his tinted glasses and sporting his trademark cheeky grin Lee is a bigger than life man who’s personality is as colourful as the character he create’s.Although Lee has only become a mainstream name in his later years due to blockbuster hits such as SpiderMan and X-Men he is a god like figure to comic book fans of all generations. Today Lee is loved for his comic book style and influence, and is as loved as much as his characters.
Stan Lee became editor of Marvel Comics (known as Timely Comics then) shortly after his service for America during world war ll. During the start Marvel was overshadowed by D.C Comics but thanks to Lee in the 1960′s Marvel became a strong rival to D.C by creating and introducing Superhero’s who were different to heros such as superman from D.C side.
