The legacy of Marvel’s legendary comic creator Stan Lee is unprecedented, and it seems that Marvel Studios will take it up a notch by showcasing a brand-new tribute to him on Disney+.
Although Stan Lee died in November 2018, it still hasn’t stopped comic book fans from celebrating the life of the Marvel legend through the years. In addition, the same is true for the MCU as Phase 4 entries like She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, Spider-Man: No Way Home, and WandaVision all had Easter eggs tied to the late comic book writer.
Interestingly, a past report also revealed that Marvel Studios inked a 20-year deal with Stan Lee Universe to use the likeness and name of the comic creator in movies, TV, Disney theme parks, merchandise, and other experiences, thus further allowing him to have a consistent presence.
