Stan Lee Supports Free Comic Book Day
Smiling Stan Lee, the MARVEL COMICS dynamo who was among the core creators of the first-generation, now multi-billion $$$, MARVEL Empire, even in the twilight of his career...
[...sorry Stan Lee, we figure even YOU realize you're @ least 1/2 way through your comic-reading-&-creating-days, yes?...]
......still knows a great idea, when he sees it,
and FREE COMIC BOOK DAY certainly fits that description!
"Face front, true believer!"-----Stan
STAN 'The Man' LEE is the major originator & forefather of most everything classically sacred at Marvel, who, with other co-creators such as artists JACK KIRBY, JOHN ROMITA Sr, STEVE DITKO, and many others, pioneered the path which brought more serious, relevant North American superheroes to the pages of comics in the 1960s & 1970s...
Stan Lee co-created as a writer Spider-Man, The Hulk, The Fantastic Four, Iron Man, Thor, The X-Men, The Silver Surfer, Daredevil, Nick Fury, Hawkeye, & S.H.I.E.L.D among the hundreds of Marvel Comics based characters he's famous for....
Born on December 28, 1922 in New York City,
the man who would come to hearld in "The Marvel Way" almost 40 years later seemingly had a knack for editing, being a fairly smart teen, graduating high school at a young age, which, along with having a family connection, allowed him to steadily raise his profile beginning in the late 1930s at new publishing company TIMELY COMICS, soon to be renamed ATLAS COMICS in the 1950s, before settling using the MARVEL COMICS brand in the 1960s...
"We tried to make our characters as human and empathetic as possible. Instead of merely emphasizing their super feats, we attempted to make their personal life and personal problems as realistic and as interesting as possible. We wanted to make them seem like real people whom the reader would like to spend time with and want to know better." -----Stan Lee

"My name is Wally West and by age fourteen I know I'm trapped...locked into a future that's one dark tunnel of sorrow and despair. A life sentence waiting to be served. But then the impossible happens. Thanks my Aunt Iris, I meet my hero, The Flash. And in one split-second my tomorrows, every last one of them, are transformed from a single bolt of lightning. Now and forever I'm fast...I'm free...and nothing will ever hold me back."
