I can only repeat what he said after Kirby left us.
From Yancey Street to Asgard, it was a hell of a ride.There came a time when the Old Gods died! The Brave died with the Cunning! The Noble perished locked in battle with unleashed Evil! It was the last day for them! An ancient era was passing in fiery holocaust!

Its only fitting Facebook would crash right when this would happen. RIP Stan Lee.

Gonna be weird to watch Marvel movies without his cameo appearance.

Real talk? Aw wow, RIP. I first heard the name Stan Lee as the narrator on Spidey and his Amazing Friends, I thought dudes name was Stanley.
This place breaks a good number of news for me... go figure.
Rest in Peace Stan Lee. Still a fan of the comic medium in general and that's due in a large part to his co-creations so long ago. Sad.Beefing up the old home security, huh?You bet yer ass.

The effects he had on all of our lives was extraordinary. A more academic analysis of his role vs the role of others in the rebirth of superhero comics may nebver be clearly defined, but he was what we noticed. He got our attention and the empire he helped create kept it there. Thank you, Stan. Excelsior!

Mr. Lee created one of my favorite Marvel characters, and quite possibly favorite fictional character, when he made Spider-Man. I thank him deeply and may he rest in peace.
Somewhere, a nerd cries. I feel nothing.

I had an inkling that Stan might be passing soon. Knowing how old he was and seeing all of this personal crap happen to him, I felt that he wasn't in a good place, that maybe life was catching up with him. Yes, so there was that.
BUT, I sure as hell am not going to let this post be calluous or morbid. For me, Stan Lee will always be the man. Yeah, there were all the unexpected cameos in the MCU films that made us smile from ear to ear, but I also remember the guy who narrated, guest-starred, and appeared in my Iron Man, X-Men, and Spider-Man cartoons. I remember Stan's soapbox, Stan Lee presents, and "no prizes" in my comics. I remember that voice, brimming with enthusiasm and old school NYC charm, who hyped me up for the next thrilling adventure of the uncanny, fantastic, and amazing! And of course, he was the guy who made those characters that inspire us today.
Stan, you made us all true believers! Excelsior!"I am a man of peace."

When I was a monthly Marvel reader during the late 1970s and early 1980s, reading "Stan's Soapbox" on the Bullpen Bulletins page was something I looked forward to almost as much as the story.

Agreed.

He gave a lot of us a lot of joy along the way.
I'll miss him.
