Speaking of Marvel, in addition to Spider-Man, Iron Man, Thor, Black Widow...
In addition to those on-screen superheroes, there is one person who deserves to be remembered forever, Stan Lee.
His characters with full images, saving mankind, saving the world, saving the universe,
But in reality, when Stan Lee is on the verge of his old age and can't take care of himself,
But no "superhero" can save him.
Born in 1922 in New York, Stan Lee grew up in a poor family, his parents were Jewish from Romania, and he had a younger brother.
The family was crammed into a small apartment with only one bedroom, Stan Lee and his brother slept in the only bedroom, and parents crammed into the sofa in the living room.
Although living in poverty, gold always shines.
In school, Stan Lee has always had excellent grades and constantly skipped grades. He loved to read and dreamed of writing America's greatest novel.
He won numerous awards in essay contests, his writing ability was recognized, and in order to subsidize his family more, after graduating from high school at the age of 16, Stan Lee joined the Marvel Comics company founded by his brother-in-law.
At first, his job was simply to pour tea and water for others, until the following year, when he began to work in the comic book business, showing his creative talent.
In a 2002 interview with 60 Minutes, Stan Lee said that Spider-Man's character creation was not revolutionary, and that he was just trying to pay rent and make ends meet with the new character.
In fact, when the publisher learned of his idea for Spider-Man, the idea was rejected. The publisher said to him, "Stan, people hate spiders. ”
But Stan Lee stuck to his ideas, and only then did he have the spider-man who became a household name.
In Marvel's superhero series of movies, people always feel extra kind when they see the familiar figure of the old man who came to make a cameo.
Over the past 30 years, he has guest starred in numerous Marvel movies.
He has always expressed his love for these superheroes in his own way and his pride in his work.
His superheroes are not perfect, and even gods have flaws and adversity.
Just like his own life.
Although Stan Lee has the "superpower" to create many beloved characters in audiences, he has long been plagued by legal disputes.
Since Marvel claims ownership of its characters, Stan Lee didn't make any profits from the film.
In an interview with 60 Minutes, Stan Lee said he had an interest in a percentage of the profits in his contract, but no one seemed willing to abide by the terms of the contract.
"I've been writing stories about superheroes all my life, and they're all good guys, and they always do the right thing. I've always thought of our company as a good company, we always do the right thing, we always take artists, writers and editors seriously. But suddenly, I felt like I wasn't being treated well and was really, really hurt. ”
In 1998, Stan Lee exchanged the rights to his film for $10 million.
In 2005, he received the support of a judge who awarded him 10 percent of Marvel's profits in the Spider-Man movies and other films.
Marvel also gave the old man Marvel Enterprises the honorary chairmanship.
In 2010, Disney bought Marvel for $4 billion, and Stan Lee sought compensation from billions of dollars in profits from Disney's acquisition.
In 2013, a federal judge ruled against Stan Lee Media, the company Lee was running for at the time, giving Disney full rights to its character.
Stan Lee died in November 2018, and the "Father of Marvel" fell at the age of 95.
I thought that all the disputes would end here, and people mourned the death of the old man and regretted his talents.
But I didn't expect that after the old man died, he was exposed to being controlled, abused, and embezzled before he was born...
This man is still the person closest to him.
On Saturday, the Associated Press released news that Keya Morgan, Stan Lee's former business manager, had been arrested on suspicion of elder abuse.
The old man referred to here is, of course, Stan Lee himself.
Everyone will grow old one day throughout their lives, whether they are barren or rich.
Even if there is some achievement, with money and fame, it will face the same twilight.
Stan Lee, on the other hand, was physically controlled after his wife's death in 2017.
Forced to separate from his family and colleagues and other close relatives, he was moved from a residence in the Hollywood Hills to a heavily guarded apartment in Beverly Hills, where he was subjected to undue influence.
There, Stan Lee was cut off from outsiders and could not ask for help.
All the information came from his closest "caretaker", morgan, who had great control over Stan Lee.
Beginning in February 2018, Lee's business began to be managed by Morgan.
In a court filing last year, Morgan was accused of embezzling and embezzling $5 million of Li's property.
Police said Lee's property, which totaled worth more than $50 million, had no clear protection, allowing opportunists to meddle in his life and take control of his property.
No one had legal representation of Lee, and Morgan controlled and influenced Lee.
Stan Lee's 25-year aide was restricted, new accountants (Morgan's friend) were hired, and even housekeepers and gardeners who had worked for decades for the old man were sent away.
With the sick eye barely visible, Stan Lee's phone number was changed, emails were monitored...
The documents that were always handed in did not know what they were signed, and he could only seek Morgan's help.
In April 2018, a document claiming that Li was controlled and amassed wealth by Morgan and others was exposed, attracting public attention.
Lee himself then posted a video on social media saying the documents were nonsense and that Morgan was trustworthy. But the video was suspected to have been recorded by him while under control.
In June, Lee's former lawyer came forward to tell the court that Lee had been mistreated by Morgan and applied for a restraining order against Morgan.
In August, the court granted a restraining order order ordering Morgan not to come near Lee and his family.
Kea Morgan, 43, was arrested in Arizona on Saturday morning on charges of theft, embezzlement, forgery or deception of seniors, as well as unlawful imprisonment and ill-treatment of seniors.
Police said Morgan was also involved in a signing campaign by Stan Lee, but the more than $262,000 in proceeds was missing.
Documents show that Stan Lee's daughter J.C. former partner Jerry Olivarez, Lee's guardian Keya Morgan, and J.C.'s lawyer Kirk Schenck, the three people who had problems and were "people who plotted against him."
The documents say Olivarez, Morgan, and Schenck had a negative impact on J.C. "She has few adult friends, and these three are close to J.C. ”
And all this, so that Stan Lee was completely controlled.
Thinking about all this makes people shudder.
Even Stan Lee, who is already famous, will encounter such misfortunes in his later years.
It's not someone else who does all this.
It was the one who accompanied him every day and trusted him the most.
Nowadays, the old man has been gone for more than half a year, and the old man's life experience and the truth of the matter have just been known by more and more people.
May heaven be unharmed, and the old man be at ease and happy there.
Stan Lee will always be the "Father of Marvel".
