Press release
When comic book legend Stan Lee throws a party, everyone wants to attend. And lucky for us, we are all invited! Stan Lee’s Comikaze, Los Angeles’ largest pop-culture convention, opens on Saturday, September 15, 2012 at the Los Angeles Convention Center.
Welcome to the Classic Comic Book Page! We scour our memories and hundreds of comic book issues to bring you pages that we think are classics.
Next up is a page from the instant classic Amazing Spider-Man #50 “Spider-Man No More!” (July 1967) written by Stan Lee, penciled by John Romita & inked by Mickey DiMeo.
The Comic Book Greats, hosted by Stan Lee, was a documentary series produced by Stabur Home Video from 1991 to 1992. In each episode, Stan Lee interviewed a different comic book artist.
As far as I know, the series was only released in VHS format and has been unavailable for some time. The user iDraw has several episodes of The Comic Book Greats split into parts and posted on his YouTube page.
Stan Lee is teaming up with online community MASScanvas, encouraging fans to design and illustrate “HERO-themed” T-shirts. A portion of the sale of winning T-shirts will benefit the John Wayne Cancer Institute.
Starting Thursday, November 4, 2011, fans can submit designs for the ‘WORLD OF HEROES’ challenge until November 20, 2011 at masscanvas.com. ALL entries will be featured on masscanvas.com, the only requirement being they reflect the theme of “WORLD OF HEROES.” Entrants and fans can comment on designs throughout the challenge and VOTE for the top 20 designs. On December 8, 2011, Stan Lee will choose 5 winning tees (each receiving a $1,000 cash prize), from the top 20, that he feels best represent the theme. The 5 winning tees will be custom printed in limited quantity, individually hand-numbered, and sold in support of the charitable cause.
