“One of the things that makes him so unique is that the comic book industry never had a greater spokesperson,” lead curator Michael Uslan said.SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA – JULY 18: Spider-Man attends as Comic-Con Museum debuts new exhibits and features on Stan Lee alongside “Cowboy Bebop” and “My Hero Academia” at Comic-Con Museum on July 18, 2023 in San Diego, California.
To organize the extensive life and legacy of Lee into a single exhibit was no simple endeavor. The museum worked with Kartoon Studios, which controls Lee’s likeness and post-Marvel work. Uslan, an executive producer for movies like “Batman” and “The Lego Movie,” was a confidante and colleague of Lee, making his curation a more personal experience.
Uslan later began teaching the world’s first accredited college course on comic books at Indiana University, Lee called to congratulate him and ask how he could help. On display were photographs, sketches and other artwork and comic books in the genres of western, mystery, and even horror. “Stan Lee was ahead of his time and very, very sensitive toward diversity and inclusion, always wanting to stay current and not to be considered retro,” Uslan said.
