There will never be another Stan Lee. For decades he provided both young and old with adventure, escape, comfort, confidence, inspiration, strength, friendship and joy. He exuded love and kindness and will leave an indelible mark on so, so, so many lives. Excelsior!!

At Marvel, “the only things we DON’T have room for are hatred, intolerance and bigotry. That man next to you? He’s your brother. That woman over there? She’s your sister.”#RIP #StanLee

What a man. What a life.
When I first broke into Hollywood, he welcomed me with open arms and some very sage advice I’ll forever take to heart.
A true icon who impacted generations around the world.
