The creative genius of US writer Stan Lee (1922-2018) generated 'Spider Man', 'X-Men', 'The Hulk' and other complex characters. Marvel Comics with Lee at the helm became hugely successful. In January 2011, Lee received the 2428th star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. [Listener: Leo Bear; date recorded: 2006].
TRANSCRIPT: Mad Magazine was wonderful, and I was friends with most of the people Al Feldstein, Harvey Kurtzman, Al Jaffee, Dave… A lot of them had worked for us, and it was one of the great publications. In fact, I even published a magazine called Snafu, which was my homage to Mad. I wrote it all myself, it was… I thought it was brilliant I must say. And I loved… by the way, I love humor. If I had my preference, I would write nothing but funny stuff. In fact I'm working on a few movies and television bits now that are comedies. To me, writing humor is the greatest thing in the world. But Mad Magazine was just great, and as far as whether it influenced me, it either influenced me or I influenced them. I'm not sure which it was. But I'm sure I was very influenced by it, because their type of humor is my type of humor.
All Time Favorite!! Rest in peace Stan Lee Sir....you and your work will always be alive in your fans memories
Mad was what was left of EC comics after the difficulties created by the comic code authority. There has always been humour here and there in Marvel comics in the 1960s and 1970s.
