Growing up a comic book nerd, he was a GOD among men. He influenced and created the modern super hero as we know it. Well past a legend, he was The Man. I expect to see a lot of tributes in the next few weeks. But Silver and Golden Age of Comics were among his greatest creations. We will never see another one like him for generations. Thank you Stan.

Dude... What a legend. I'm happy that he's immortalized in all the movies he's contributed to and comics he's created over the years. RIP, Stan Lee.

I have about 200 comics, mostly X-Men. This is sad news but hard to be too broken up about a dude who lived to be 95 and seemingly lived a fun full life.

Not really a comic book guy, but I have mad respect for Stan Lee. He will forever be remembered for the characters he created and developed. Not to mention, an entire segment of Hollywood owes their billions to him!

Came in to say that. You've already said it better than I.
