Dear Reader,
If you are a nerd like me, the recent death of Stan Lee may have you feeling dismayed. Mr. Lee's work inspired countless artists and authors around the world. His work was passionate and filled with life. From all accounts, Mr. Lee was a gentleman and a great friend to his fans. I aspire to be half as influential and inspirational as Stan Lee. As much as we may argue if the movies were better than the comic books and quibble over which character is better, I think we can all agree that the real hero was Stan Lee and his infinite genius.
He created characters and stories that excelled at both entertaining us and informing us as to something about the human condition. His work tackled cultural issues with as much vigor as they entertained us. It is my sincerest hope that what ever afterlife Mr. Lee is welcomed to, he is greeted with as much joy and has as much joy as he has given the world with his life's work.
Excelsior ad infinitum.
