@rookie54 saidIt was hardly unexpected, but he will be missed. It's rare that someone that influential remains so widely loved in tje comics world. Most of the famous greats end up either controversial or outdated - I've never heard Stan Lee described either way.

@Ponderable
The "old days" when Presidents were presidential!
Didn't agree with his politics but he certainly was a respectable Head of State.

@wolfgang59 saidI’ve enjoyed hearing all about him on the TV this am and of the respectful tributes paid by former and current presidents and prime ministers. He must have missed his wife dreadfully after her recent death. I recall the minster at the funeral of my father in law saying that he had not found it unusual for a man to die within a year of the death of their long term partner.
