The co-creator of Marvel Comics, Stan Lee, has died at the age of 95.
According to TMZ, an ambulance rushed to Lee’s Hollywood Hills home early this morning and was taken to Cedars-Sinai Medical Centre.
During his long career, which started in 1939, Lee pioneered a long list of comic book characters in the Marvel Universe including Thor, Black Panther, Iron Man and Spiderman.
While he was able to work alongside big names such as Chris Pratt and Scarlett Johansson, Lee was often the star of his movies as fans anxiously awaited his cameos.
Even though Lee made headlines several times this year for health issues including vision issues and pneumonia, his death has come as a shock to many.
Super-fans and fellow coworkers have begun to share memories they had with the legend.
Sad sad loss today. Stan Lee helped shape a lot of our childhoods and well into our adult lives, filling them with hero’s and stories that will live on forever. RIP, Mr. Lee, you’re a legend!

Just heard about Stan Lee passing away. Sad to hear the news but extremely happy to have had the opportunity to enjoy his work. He brought smiles, entertainment, and hope to so many hearts and minds. His characters play a huge role in who I am today. Thank you for inspiring me.
