This article needs a big cleanup.

This page needs a split: Stan Lee (in-universe) for the DWU character, and Stan Lee for his real world role with Doctor Who Magazine.

These problems might be so great that the article's factual accuracy has been compromised. Talk about it here or check the revision history or Manual of Style for more information.

Stan Lee was a comic book professional whom Clyde Langer hoped to displace by virtue of his own artistic talents. (TV: The Curse of Clyde Langer [+]Phil Ford, The Sarah Jane Adventures series 5 (CBBC, 2011).)

In the Daft Dimension, Dez Skinn once had a nightmare about Stan Lee being asked to write Doctor Who comics, only to completely misunderstand and turn in Timelord, an American-style comic-book where the titular character is a doctor by day who, by night, becomes an avenging superhero wielding a sonic sceptre. Throughout the conversation, Stan Lee kept repeating "Excelsior". (COMIC: The Origin of Doctor Who Magazine [+]Lew Stringer, The Daft Dimension (Panini Comics, 2019).)

Behind the scenes[]

Real life[]

Stan Lee (28 December 1922-12 November 2018[1]) was the former Publisher, Editor-in-Chief, President, and Chairman of Marvel Comics. When Doctor Who Magazine was produced by Marvel, he was credited as its publisher.

Lee was a legendary figure in the world of comics and publishing, creating such seminal characters as Spider-Man, the Incredible Hulk, the X-Men, the Fantastic Four and many more. He is credited with building Marvel Comics from a small imprint to the major multimedia company it is now. He is also credited with bringing the "flawed hero" to superhero comics, invigorating the genre and paving the way for such reexaminations of the superhero story such as Alan Moore's Watchmen.
