Stan Lee has passed away.

[Squirlz]

At age 95. A real life superhero.

Excelsior!

He lived a rich life and was responsible for iconic characters that he either created or reinvented.

Just saw this as my 15 year old who is a huge Marvel fan posted it on her instagram.

RIP

This one hurts. I've been a fan of comic books as far as I can remember. He lived a full and exciting life, but it will be weird not seeing his cameos anymore

 

[FlightlessDuck]

It's going to be weird seeing him in the next couple Marvel movies.

RIP Mr Lee....

Yeah...this one...this hurts. It's something we all knew had to happen some day but it seemed like it never would. I'm a huge comics fan and, I mean, Stan, he was like the guiding light for the entire industry. It's hard to imagine how it will all go on without him - but it will, and it must. Stan's creations, and those that he inspired, will live on forever! My deepest sympathies to his loved ones and RIP to Stan. Excelsior, good sir!

I am not a comic/superhero fan whatsoever, but I do admire his creativity and passion for it. RIP.

This one made me sadder than it should, considering what a long, full and remarkable life and career he had. The MCU won't be quite the same without his cameos.

It is a sad day.

This one kicked me right in all the feels...

Aw. My husband and I were just talking about him less than 24 hours ago while we were watching Ragnarok again. I noticed his wedding band. Looked it up and his wife had died in 2017.

So sad. His cameos will be missed. I’m glad he lead a full life. RIP

If it were not for The Big Bang Theory, I would not know who he was.

RIP

I'm not a Marvel fan, but I loved his cameo in Big Hero 6. To me he will always be Fred's dad.

 

[marcyleecorgan]

Awwwwwww such a sad moment for us all.

 

[superme80]

So sad. I was a huge fan of x-men as a teenager. I now like the Marvel movies. RIP Stan!

I was flying home on Sunday and saw his doppleganger working at the airport in Philly- Instinctively, I looked around for Iron Man and the gang. What a life he had. May he rest in peace.

 

[Kathryn Merteuil]

Very sad, I am not a comic book person but I knew who he was from like tv and movies.

We were on the Disney cruise when we heard the news. I had just seen Avengers Infinity War, and was telling my son that I bet they have pre-filmed his cameos for years to come, knowing the day would come when he is not here anymore. Plus, I think they can just reuse the scenes they have. He was a bus driver in Infinity Wars, he could be a bus driver in something else 15 years from now.

From what I've heard, there are four more cameos coming: three more in the Marvel/X-Men universes and one in Jay Mewes's directorial debut. After that, I suspect they'll go the way they did in Deadpool 2 and work the cameo in as a portrait or a picture or something in the background rather than recycling the existing clips.
