Wazzup Pilipinas!
Stan Lee, the living legend and creator of many Marvel comic book titles and characters, celebrated on December 28 his 95th birthday.
Very few people get and deserve the mantle of being a true living legend... Stan Lee is one of those rare people.
Stan has been many comic fans' hero since the '60s! We love how his creations have been the dominant pop culture icons for so many years.
The man created the Marvel Universe. The creator of The Fantastic 4, Spider-Man, Thor, Hulk, Captain America, The Avengers and just about every other hero and bad guy in Marvels corralled!
We who love comic books owe this man a great amount of gratitude! EXCELLSIOR!!!
There’s some debate on the exact creative credits of Stan but he was definitely a showman, sales man and damn good talent finder. Comic books and certainly Marvel wouldn’t be anything close to what they are now culturally without him.
It may be tacky to tout one's own body, but the very fact of Stan's endurance as a comicbook icon leads me to forgive him (and being a DC fan all my live, it reflects even more my regard for his talent).
Stan the Man invented the letter-col, created the first costumed hero melanges, and certainly laid the groundwork for the flood of latex-clad cinema epics we've been inundated with the past decades. If all the powered characters he's created over his incredibly long career were to bellow out a "Happy Birthday" in chorus, it could well result in positive climate change.
Stan...I salute ya...!
