Marvel fans old enough to remember or nerdy enough to have cared in their childhood should be thrilled to see Stan's Soapbox on book shelves nationwide come November.
The comic book icon is known for helping build the Marvel universe, creating a unique method of writing comics while marketing his unique brand of dementia to a group of loyal followers. Come November, his famous "Stan's Soapbox" series of articles, featured in Marvel comics for decades, back in the glory days, when Stan led a bullpen at Marvel hellbent on bringing us bigger, badder villains and zany, down-to-earth heroes, will be on sale in a dazzling collection spanning 144 pages. The collection is organized so as to provide the reader with a historical context, and will feature the writing of Joe Quesada, and a bunch of other people who Joe allowed to be in the book. He's so humble.
But, the book goes to a good cause. Stan explains:
"...Every Stan's Soapbox book sold means more money for the great Hero Initiative cause. No wonder I'm so proud of this book and the cause that it serves! Heck, I might even buy two copies!"
He'll never change.
