"I used to be embarrassed because I was just a comic-book writer while other people were building bridges or going on to medical careers. And then I began to realize: entertainment is one of the most important things in people's lives. Without it they might go off the deep end. I feel that if you're able to entertain people, you're doing a good thing." - Stan Lee

"Another definition of a hero is someone who is concerned about other people’s well-being and will go out of his or her way to help them — even if there is no chance of a reward. That person who helps others simply because it should or must be done, and because it is the right thing to do, is indeed without a doubt, a real superhero." - Stan Lee

This man was a legend among men. He created most of our childhoods, and me personally his life and works have inspired me to the point that a lot of my hobbies revolve around Marvel Comics. A couple years ago I had an opportunity to meet him and sadly I skipped it and now I regret it heavily. I'm sure he was a great person, and had a wonderful family, not just biologically, but those who were affected by everything he's done. So here, have this quick sketch I did as a tribute to Stan Lee.
