He actually had a fan letter in one of the old fantastic four issues.
I've been seeing some debate why Stan Lee should or should not be recognized at the Academy Awards. The juggernaut of the MCU aside, I think he should. The guy has influenced so many writers throughout the years, impacting popular culture--including movies.
So in this case you have a young George RR Martin reading comics that Stan Lee wrote, recognizing what he did with protagonists/antagonists. Martin went on to write(ing) the Song of Ice and Fire books, which was adapted into the extremely popular HBO show Game of Thrones.
Tell me again why Stan shouldn't be recognized. Tell me one more time stuffy movie critics that probably donβt frequent here so I don't know why I am antagonizing you.
Neither Stan or GRRM have had any works recognized by the academy, so anything more than a spot on the in memoriam presentation does not make sense.
And that is perfectly alright. The MCU does not need Academy recognition. They are action blockbusters which have never faired well with academy, but yet the MCU has seemed to have some modest success without any awards.
