Favorite Stan Lee Character.

Post by SkyPikachu »

What is your favorite Stan Lee Character and why?

Mine is Spider-man being a nerdy kid/teen myself when I started watching Spidey I was able to relate to him very easily and I really love the humor behind Spidey that other comics don't seem to have.

I also kind of want to shout out Wolverine as he would never have been made without Stan Lee creating the X-men. Stan Lee however didn't personally create Wolverine though.

Spider-Man would have been my easy pick, but I'm giving him to Jack Kirby. Doctor Strange might have been my next pick just because of the crazy psychedelic art I remember loving as a kid, but I'm giving him to Steve Ditko.

So with those caveats, I think it's going to come down to Daredevil (I like the character, even if I don't enjoy many (most?) of his storylines) and Black Panther.

My picks are Spiderman and Hulk. I've read comics of these as a kid, watched TV series and cartoons of both before the X-men, Fantastic 4 and Avengers became popular.

I didn't see this post somehow! Daredevil for me, and it's an easy choice. For my tastes he's Marvel's most compellingly conflicted character (alliteration in Stan's honour), and when you factor in the disability-as-superpower, it all comes together. I'm with Kong - DD can be a hard pick because there's a whole lotta suck in his catalogue. But in the right hands, making good use of his ethical and moral conundrums as lynch pins for the action... it just doesn't get better. Daredevil hands down.
