Stan Lee Remembered (Part II)
SPOILERS for "Avengers: Infinity War". And the "Mr. Stank" is a reference to the Stan Lee's appearance in "Captain America: Civil War", where he has a delivery for "Mr. Stank", rather than "Mr. Stark". So, the seeming typo is intentional.
I'll be honest: I'm really not sure what I think about this cartoon. I am conflicted.
On the one hand, it really seems disrespectful to someone for whom I have a deep appreciation. I still smile every time he shows up in a movie cameo (with the best ones being in "Deadpool" and the trailer for "Deadpool 2"--with the classic line "Zip it, Stan Lee!"--and "Guardians of the Galaxy").
On the other hand, it was one of the first things that popped into my head after I heard Stan Lee died. It was completely unbidden, like Ray's vision of the Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man as the manifestation of Gozer the Gozerian, in "Ghostbusters" (1984)--with probably the same rampant destruction to my career. But, then I remembered I really don't have a career, so here it is!
