- Kye 8y agoThe Stan Lee cameo.
- toyg 8y agoDon't be flippant. The man changed the cultural landscape way before any movie of his creations had been shot.
- Kye 8y agoThat wasn't flippant. Comics were already pushing $2 an issue by the time I noticed them. TV, movies, and Netflix are my only exposure to his creations. The cameo is something just about everyone knows about and enjoys. People who couldn't afford comics growing up and couldn't get into them later know it. It's iconic. That's great.
- Insanity 8y agoI agree here. I am not a fan of comic books nor superhero films. My wife loves them though so we have seen most Marvel movies and it id probably where I know Stan Lee from. Though IIRC he appeared in "the big bang theory" as well. Of course - his legacy are the characters and stories and not just the cameos :)
- slowmovintarget 8y agoBut cameos drawn into the comics were notable even before they were movies. That the movies continued the tradition made the cameos even better.
- toyg 8y agoCommercially, the FF - the title that kickstarted a universe. Culturally, SpiderMan - the superhero with superproblems. Literarily, Silver Surfer or Dr. Doom, the most tragic figures in the early Marvel Universe.
- aswanson 8y agoFor me personally, Iron Man. As a kid, that comic had me amazed at the power of technology.
