Stan Lee is a super-human

At age 82, Stan Lee is proving to be somewhat of a super-human. Among some of his activities, he attends comic conventions signing books, works on movie productions (Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer is slated to be released in 2007 and Stan is listed in the writing credits), he had a reality TV show called Who Wants to Be a Superhero?, he runs his own entertainment company called POW (Purveyors of Wonder) and he’s writing Stan Lee meets… to commemorate 65 years with Marvel Comics.

“Retirement is a dirty word,” he said by phone from his Beverly Hills office. “Most people think when they retire, they will finally get a chance to do the things they always wanted to do. I’m already doing what I want to do. I don’t want to play golf or walk along the beach contemplating my navel.”

Kind of makes Aaron McGruder look a bit small by comparison.

Stan Lee makes a lot of people look small by comparison. McGruder is microscopic in comparison.
