The legend behind characters like Spider-Man, Thor, Iron Man, Black Panther, Fantastic Four and X-Men had passed away at the age of 95.

Lee began business in 1939 and created characters like Spider-Man, Black Panther and Ant-Man among countless others. The writer died early morning at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in LA.

Lee has had few health issues in the recent years and was hospitalised earlier this year. Things went worse for the legendary writer ever since he lost his wife, Joan, last year. Lee is survived by his daughter J.C. and brother Larry Lieber.

Lee’s contributions to the comic industry cannot be overstated. He created some legendary characters alongside Jack Kirby, Steve Ditko and Bill Everett. All Marvel fans will certainly miss spotting the legend in cameos in all the MCU films.

Rest in power, Stan Lee!
