Stan Lee (b. 1922), co-creator of The Amazing Spider-Man, The
Fantastic Four, The Incredible Hulk, and The Uncanny X-Men, is one
of the most successful writers and publishers of comics. During the
1960s and 1970s, he wrote superhero adventures for Marvel Comics.
His storylines imbued the genre with angst and contemporary
politics and focused as much on the personal lives of his
characters as on heroics. His work, in collaboration with
cartoonists such as Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko, remains deeply
influential. His role as a spokesperson and impresario for Marvel
paved the way for the superhero genre to be taken seriously by the
critical establishment and for the penetration of Marvel Comics
into mainstream American culture. Stan Lee: Conversations collects
interviews ranging from 1968 to 2005. Lee's charm, good humor, and
keen business sense are on display. He has spirited conversations
with cartoonists Jack Kirby, Harvey Kurtzman, and Roy Thomas, talk
show host Dick Cavett, and Jenette Kahn (head of DC Comics,
Marvel's rival), among others. He talks with candor about his
creative process, publishing, film and television adaptations of
his comic books, and the evolution of the comics industry. The
volume concludes with a new interview conducted by the editor.
