I believe you all have seen Marvel movies before. But do you know who created those superheroes? It's Stan Lee, the father of Marvel. People of all ages love him.
Stan Lee was born in America in 1922. His real name is Stanley Lieber but his pen name is much more famous. With the help of his uncle, Lee became an assistant* in Marvel in 1939. During that time, he was paid only 8 dollars a month. In 1941, his first work Captain America came out and later he became the main comic book writer and editor. He created more than 80% of Marvel's characters, such as Iron Man and Spiderman, so he became as well-known as those characters.
Lee carefully designed the Marvel world so that we can see most of the superheroes in it together. And he even became a character in his stories and played a role of his comic book heroes.
The following is what he once said, "I was embarrassed* before, because I thought I was just a comic book writer while other people were doing great things. But then I began to realize that entertainment is one of the most important things in people's lives. I feel that if you are able to entertain, you are doing a good thing. Without it, they might go off the deep end."
Lee died in 2018 at the age of 95. Though he has left, his superheroes will keep living on.
