His greatest work was accomplished throughout the mid-20th century in the halls of Marvel Comics, but Lee was never better known than during the post-2000s boom of superhero movies. Co-creating the Fantastic Four, Spider-Man, the X-Men, and Iron Man made him a legend, but countless big-screen cameos made him a mainstream icon. Lee’s final Marvel movie cameo was, fittingly, in Avengers: Endgame,...
