Stan Lee, Marvel Comics’ Real-Life Superhero, Dies at 95
The feisty writer, editor and publisher was responsible for such iconic characters as Spider-Man, X-Men, Thor, Iron Man, Black Panther and The Fantastic Four — ‘nuff said.
Stan Lee, the legendary writer, editor and publisher of Marvel Comics whose fantabulous but flawed creations made him a real-life superhero to comic-book lovers everywhere, has died. He was 95.
Lee, who began in the business in 1939 and created or co-created Black Panther, Spider-Man, X-Men, The Mighty Thor, Iron Man, The Fantastic Four, The Incredible Hulk, Daredevil, Ant-Man and other characters, died early Monday morning at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, a source told The Hollywood Reporter.
Lee’s final few years were tumultuous. After Joan, his wife of 69 years, died in July 2017, he sued executives at POW! Entertainment — a company he founded in 2001 to develop film, TV and video game properties — for $1 billion for fraud, then abruptly dropped the suit weeks later.

Jair Bolsonaro, a fascist, pro military dictatorship, racist, misogynist, and homophobe, has been elected Brazilian president. My heart goes out to all Brazilians who are in danger and living in fear right now because of him and his horrid followers.

Why is it that no gun control laws have been passed? When 9/11 happened, the government acted right away. Airport security changed dramatically and nothing like that ever happened again. There have been 22 school shootings just this year, that’s about 1 every week. Are our lives not important enough?
