Marvel Comics former head, Stan Lee, is back home after a brief hospital stay. The 95-year-old Marvel icon was admitted to Cedars-Sinai hospital in Los Angeles, California, on Wednesday night after he suffered from shortness of breath and an irregular heartbeat. He has now been released from the hospital.
In a Skype interview with Eyewitness News, Lee said he is absolutely fine and feeling great.
“All I really want to do is tell you that I’m feeling great,” Lee said. “I’m glad I spent that evening in the hospital. It did me a lot of good. It probably did my fans a lot of good. It kept me off their backs for the evening. But I’m feeling good now and I can’t wait to get in there and tangle with all the competition.”
Lee also said that he is happy to know that there are fans who care about him and that he is grateful to them for their love.
“It’s nice to know that somewhere in the world there are still people who care about what I say or do,” Lee said. “And it’s nice to know that somewhere in the world there are always people who are fans who care about what people do – the people they’re interested in. And I think having fans is one of the greatest things. I can never say how grateful I am for it.”
It cannot be ignored that Lee has been facing health issues for quite some time now. He had to cancel a number of appearances at Salt Lake City Comic Con and Big Apple Comic Con last year due to health problems.
The last time when media photographed Marvel legend Stan Lee was at the premiere of the Black Panther movie on Monday. He posed with star Chadwick Boseman. Notably, Lee created the character of Black Panther along with artist Jack Kirby in 1966. Spider-Man, the Hulk, Doctor Strange, the Fantastic Four, Daredevil, and the X-Men are some of the other popular characters created by Lee. He also co-created Thor, Iron Man and Ant-Man with writer Larry Lieber.
Fans can rest assure and hope to see the Marvel legend film more cameos for MCU’s upcoming phase 4 and more to come.
