Just me talking...
It's funny to think one man changed the world. I write today just to write as I sit here reading what all of you wrote on the great Stan Lee.
I usually don't bother with movie stars, comedians and musicians passing. It's more like "eh" sad, but it’s not like they were family...I lost a lot of friends growing up, maybe that's the reason...a lot of them didn't see 21...which I thought I would not see as well, old age, what the hell is that in the hood. So today I sit here reading and Yea I'll say it again it's funny to think I reached my 40s and he might have had a part...well my mother's prayers as well...as she would break night by the window praying to God I didn't get killed and make my way back home and off to work she would go with no sleep, it sucks. Thanks to comics they steered me a bit off although I still got involved in a lot of crap there was those days I picked up a comic and stood home those days I picked up a comic and drew my favorite hero or villain, like Bullseye, spiderman, hulk etc...I liked Daredevil a lot, the idea was amazing like a hero version of Zatoichi the blind swordsman...but Yea I have Stan Lee to thank, open or closed caskets friends, family passing when I wanted to give a break to the madness life was, at times I would read one, no matter which one it was....whether it was the avengers, x-men or something else I'm not saying I stuck to Marvel, I cheated on him with DC, Darkhorse, TopCow and Image, maybe even Vertigo...but yea he was great. He changed the world, Thank you Stan Lee. We sit here reading or writing from so many different backgrounds but all talking about, that one great man that helped us during hard times, helped us escape or just for a quick read, The man who was the face of something so great...it’s crazy, it took me reading what you guys wrote on here...so Thank you.
To all those that wrote about him and sparked something in me to see how he changed so many lives, in so many different ways Thank you.
Just me thinking out loud.....
