This summer when the movie houses are filled with people going to see The Avengers, there’s going to be a secret history to that team that no Marvel movie will ever show: the story about Stan Lee and Jack Kirby. Although Stan Lee makes jovial appearances in nearly all of the Marvel movies to date and into the foreseeable future, the true story behind the creation of the Marvel heroes is a story arguably more fascinating than the comic stories themselves. The idea of a movie about comic creators might seem boring to some, but just thing how Mad Men made the advertising business so appealing and what a period piece about comic creators would be like.You can find the rest of this original post here
This is the place where I discuss all things Sacred and Profane. Stop by and check me out. Leave a comment (or not), as this is done for my own amusement. If you too are entertained, all the better, but that is not the motivation here. For I, am a...Writer with attitude! Comics, Sci Fi, movies, TV, Books, the Internet, Pop Culture, you name it. I talk about all of these things and more. These are the things that entertain me. I can only hope that some of them will entertain you as well.
