Stan Lee’s drawings showed the heroes on a human level, conveying their emotion and vulnerabilities; this was uncommon practice at the time.
In 1961, he created the Fantastic Four with Jack Kirby, cementing Marvel’s place in the comic world. The worth of Stan Lee’s paintings continues to increase, along with the value of first editions of his famous comic books. Stan Lee’s drawings are world renowned, and in 2008 he was awarded the National Medal of Arts for his contribution to art.
