Go, Read: Alex Pappademas Profiles Stan Lee

I thought this profile of Stan Lee over at the long-form sports and culture journalism site Grantland was a pretty good one. I liked the other thing I read from Alex Pappademas on comics there, too, which I can't recall right now. Not only is it a surprisingly sophisticated walk through the basic creators rights issues that are going to be a part of Lee's legacy, Pappademas gets at the difficulty of writing about these subjects and I think nails at what makes worth noting the fact there was any discussion at all of these issues on the event of a movie release. I also think that he gets an honest, unaffected answer out of Lee about his basic take on creator's rights, and that's going to be a boon to the medium's history.
