A treat for all of you who want to amount to more in life than just roid filled biceps and abs.
I hung at Stan Lee's house yesterday in Beverly Hills and talked shop with the two absolute gods of comics; Stan Lee and Roy Thomas. If you don't know, between them they both created Spider-man, Wolverine, Carol Danvers aka Captain Marvel and the Avengers. Basically the guys who have made Disney/Marvel BILLIONS and Marvel the biggest film franchise of all time.
This was the first time in over 30 years that Roy and Stan got together privately and talked comics and I was there with them for this historical moment (in awe).
DREAM BIG!

INDI-LAD, WOW!!!
Although I am no fan of anyone nor anything, I feel a bit jealous!
How did you manage that?
I have family members who work on and in these Super Hero movies but I don't think anyone even saw nor met Stan Lee while on set.
And Stan should hopefully get some kind of an Acadamy Award this season before it gets too late to accept it in person!
And sorry to say but..... I am not familiar with Roy Thomas who must have entered the comic book scene many years lafter than Stan.
And is it possble that you have met a Mr. Witherby who does the 'ink-lines' for Marvel?
And you might want to consider that photo as 'priceless' in years to come!
Thanks for posting this!

Thank you sir.
And yes, I knew what the moment meant while it was happening. Heck, the entire day was a dream. I worked very hard to get to where I am and this was a true reward for all that work.
A taste of Roy Thomas' legacy. The industry owes Roy a thank you almost as it much as it does Stan.

Great stuff Indie-Lad! Great to see you living your dreams, this must have been an amazing day for you and all concerned.
Just curious, you said how much money these two have made for Disney and the movie industry......has some of that money made its way back to these guys? I believe Stan has cashed in but not sure to what extent and not in the know about Roy Thomas at all. Hopefully they have both been properly compensated for their ideas and innovation.

Did Stan ever get the stuff sorted out with his nurse stealing from him? That’s some shit right there.

Cool stuff bro!!

INDIE, Are you in the motion picture business or the comic book business or something related to either one of the above?
I'm gonna send you a message to see if we have mutual friends. And possibly put me in contact with long lost ones.

No. I'm in the comic side of the business although I've dealt with a few people on the movie side.
Not really sure if I can help you.
I've read your message. Sounds like you know some creative people. Good for you.
Good luck on trying to reconnect with them.

INDi, Thanks.

Yes, I'm in the last photo ever taken with Stan Lee. I'm immortalized forever with the two biggest comic legends ever. Last thing I did was hug Stan and he said "God Bless you John..." less than 48 hours later he died. It was bitter sweet.
My name is not Indie-Lad, it's John Cimino.
Excelsior.

Roid filled biceps and abs > grown man reading comics, playing with hulk figures and wanking himself stupid after meeting an old man

Wait...did Stan Lee always wear the same clothes? Or did he die years ago wearing that, and ventriloquists and puppeteers just carried him around and spoke for him?
-
He did appear......wider than Heath.

^^ John, if that's your real name: this is one of the most meaningful things I have ever read on the internet, thank you.
Stan changed a lot of people, inspired them.
Thank you so much for visiting, commenting site and posting on gettBig, despite being told to go to another site. I always clicked on your links as the marvel universe occupied a lot of my life. Kind of always wondered what your mission was posting here, and always appreciated it.
If that is not your real name........eish! humba lo, skebenga! (That's "WakandaLese")

Remembering Stan Lee
-
My Stan Lee story:
When l was in HS l belonged to the comic book club.
We were able to get an appointment for a tour of the DC offices in NYC.
After the tour we said what the hell, let’s see if we can get into Marvel, which wasn’t too far away.
We got turned away because we didn’t have an appointment. On the way out, Stan Lee just happened to get in the elevator with us. We were elated of course! Stan was very cool. We bullshitted with him for a few minutes and he gave each of us his autograph. He was about the age l am now. An experience I’ll always remember!
