R.I.P Stan Lee.
A great man, a great mind, and he's left us with a great legacy. He will exist forever, even subconsciously, in the thoughts of every creative mind. We will find him in the dust that lingers over the comic pages we hold so dearly to our hearts. He will echo in our own voices everytime we laugh or cry aloud to every film, book, or comic of his making or participation. Stan lee spent his whole life creating hero's- and in the act, he became one.
He's left us today for a better place, but his presence will ripple throughout generations until he becomes an ingrained, subconscious part of our collective existence.
Let it be known, to all those who care:
When we are afraid, he will be our bravery
When happiness runs dry, he will be that careless thrill of joy we feel when we are young
When our minds become dark, he will be the light that make us shine
Because that's what SuperHeros do.
And wherever we find need for a SuperHero, we will find Stan Lee.
