I really don’t know what comics and pop culture would be if we lose Stan Lee. Even though he’s nearly 90, Stan “The Man” Lee is still going strong, so I’m glad to hear that he’s recovering well from recent heart surgery. He made a statement on his company’s site announcing that the surgery has made him a bit more like Iron Man:

Attention, Troops!

This is a dispatch sent from your beloved Generalissimo, directly from the center of Hollywood’s combat zone!

Now hear this! Your leader hath not deserted thee! In an effort to be more like my fellow Avenger, Tony Stark, I have had an electronic pace-maker placed near my heart to insure that I’ll be able to lead thee for another 90 years.

But fear thee not, my valiant warriors. I am in constant touch with our commanders in the field and victory shall soon be ours. Now I must end this dispatch and join my troops, for an army without a leader is like a day without a cameo!

Excelsior!

Hopefully he gets back on his feat real quick as he needs to do cameos on all of the upcoming Marvel movies!
