Hi, Stephen.
DJ> Im willing to concede that a great deal of the early marvels were

DJ> & ff's that Lee scripted.
DH> I've never heard that before.  Stan Lee didn't actually write a
DH> lot of the books attributed to him?
ST> Are you kidding??!! I saw him once on a local media-mouthpiece
ST> talk show once, and he couldn't even keep his characters
ST> straight!! Apparently, he hasn't had a hands-on participation in
ST> Marvel for quite some time.
ST> Like for the past 30 years.....
    When Stan Lee stopped writing comics is a matter of history... and
it happened a long time ago.  All I was saying was that I didn't know
that a number of the stories credited to him were not, in fact,
written by him.
    Besides, I think comic fans can, out of respect for his
contributions to comics, cut the man a little slack when it comes to
his memory.  After all, the Marvel Universe he helped create is the
better part of 40 years old now... I think Stan Lee can be forgiven
for not being able to instantly recall names and facts.  Let's see how
good our memories are when we get to be Stan's age.
Talk to you later.
