[Requiem for Three Great Brothers] - Comedy Open Mic Round #38

in #comedyopenmic6 years ago


Source - Yeah, a lot of characters were born from his endless imagination.


Stan Lee, the last of the famous Lee brothers, is dead. Writer and comics editor, popular icon, creator of characters so rooted in popular culture as "The Amazing Spider Man", "Iron Man" and "Doctor Strange" among many others, died yesterday November 12 at 95 years of age at Cedars-Dinei Hospital in Los Angeles.


Source - You will always remembered with that smile. Rest in Peace.


Stan (December 28, 1922) second of the Lee brothers, was born months after Christopher (May 27, 1922) and eighteen years before the youngest of the family, Bruce (November 27). Unlike his brothers, Stan achieved worldwide fame and recognition behind the scenes, creating endearing characters and plots that immortalize him, stories that leave the deepest and most beautiful imprint on world popular culture. Stan with his stories taught us the value of courage, gave us hope, amazed us and above all, was able to make entire generations dream.

Ironically, Stan in his beginnings never imagined that his face and name would be as well known as his brothers actors. He began as a dark writer after Jack Kirby's brilliant illustrations, forming with him one of the most creative and productive couples to which reference can be made. Success soon arrived and his works went from humble comics to the engine that drove the growth of an entire industry. The modern comic owes much to the great Stan Lee.

Already at an advanced age, his face became known thanks to numerous cameos in the films of the very famous cinematic universe created by Marvel and based largely on his characters and arguments.

Stan, a natural-born creator, genius after infinite adventures and dreams, survived in 1973 the premature death of Bruce, the youngest of the brothers, an icon of martial arts and famous actor victim of a cerebral edema due to an allergic reaction to a medicine at the age of 32. Stan, affected by his death, created the great dragon Fing Fang Fong, a character that is rumored to appear in upcoming Marvel Universe movies.

Christopher, older than Stan for a few months was an imposing actor specializing in villains, popular icon for his incarnations in celluloid of Count Dracula and already in advanced age, Saruman in the cinematographic adaptation of "The Lord of the Rings". He lived a long and prosperous life that ended at the age of 93 in London on June 7, 2013 due to respiratory problems and heart failure. In his honor, Stan created the character Dr Strange played by Benedict Cumberbatch in the Marvel universe, a superhero who shares his elegance and fights against mystical threats to protect the world; inspired by his interpretations of supernatural characters.



Source - Yeah Dracula and Saruman, Cristopher was a real badass actor!


But Stan's life was not without controversy, the best known being his dispute for economic and creative control of his works with cartoonist Jack Kirby, co-creator of many of his characters. Or the confusion of the general public continues because of his physical resemblance to the late Hugh Hefner, creator and magnate famous for Playboy Magazine.

Stan Lee has died but his work makes him immortal, Spider-man weeps, Hulk's anger today is melancholy, Strange escorts him to his destiny by astral planes and here, in the real world, men mourn the death of a great dreamer. Thanks for everything Stan, you can leave in peace, you will never be forgotten.

That may be the saddest funny I have ever read. Gods speed Stan.

Yeah I know is hard to make humor from dead people but I tried to make him and "his" brothers a little tribute, it was never meant to cause laughs, just a smile and maybe, some tears. Hope you like it!
