Stan Lee has written many comic books about super heroes. Now he has going to write a series that includes himself. Reuters reports that Stan Lee's upcoming comic book series, Super Seven, is about seven aliens who are stranded on Earth. Stan Lee acts as a friend and mentor to the stranded aliens.
"Nothing is more exciting to me, as a writer, than creating a new type of story or introducing a new theme. Although I've briefly appeared in other comics, 'Super Seven' is the first time that I'll actually be a continuing character in a far-out, original superhero series," Lee said in a statement.
Lee and his then collaborator Jack Kirby appeared as themselves on the cover of a 1963 "Fantastic Four" comic book, and Lee has appeared in cameo roles in many of the movies based on the characters he helped to create for Marvel Comics.
MTV's Splashpage says Stan Lee's Super Seven will also debut as an animated tv series this fall.
