Stan Lee · 9:43pm Nov 12th, 2018
I'd like to call for a moment of silence for the Smilin' Stan, the Man, Lee, but I think those have been called enough today. Instead, I want to reflect on the person that just passed away. Many will remember him as the creator of half of Marvel Comics (the good half, some may add). Others, who know the stories of Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko, may have troubles over what to focus on right now. And of course, because generational change is inevitable, some will just miss the funny old guy from the cameos in all those movies.
Either way, I suggest you, my loyal (and patient) readers to not go in silence at the end of a life as complex as Stan Lee's. Instead, as he did with back in the days, I invite you to reflect on the world around us. I invite you to meditate on what did Stan Lee meant. Learn and tell his story to those who may ask. But tell it well, the good along the bad.
The rest will become silence. But before that happens, if only for one las time, let us remember Stanley Martin Lieber as he usually advises us to go on with our lives. Always upward and onward
'Nuff said.
I'm going to take a page from the Blockbuster Buster here. Just to be completely honest here. Feel free to imagine this in MLP voices if you're into that.
Alright. Everyone, stand! And I'm not kidding. Get out of your chairs (if you can/if you can read from there) as we pay tribute to one of the greats, Stan Lee.
We are gatherd to honour our friend... and comrade.
The man who came from the beyond to show us all that heroes aren't born, but made
Of all the souls I've ever seen, his was one of the most... human.
Despite any differences we may have had, I have nothing but respect for the man. I hope tat he knew... knows that. Wherever he is..
In the end, he showed that the world doesn't need supermen... just ones who are willing to be.
Rest well, king among gods.
