Stan Lee (born Stanley Martin Lieber /ˈliːbər/; December 28, 1922–November 12, 2018) was an American comic book writer, editor, publisher, and producer. He rose through the ranks of a family-run business called Timely Comics, which later became Marvel Comics. He was Marvel's primary creative leader for two decades, expanding it from a small publishing house division to a multimedia corporation that dominated the comics and film industries. In collaboration with others at Marvel—particularly co-writers and artists Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko—he co-created iconic characters, including Spider-Man, the X-Men, Iron Man, Thor, the Hulk, Ant-Man, the Wasp, the Fantastic Four, Black Panther, Daredevil, Doctor Strange, the Scarlet Witch, and Black Widow. These and other characters' introductions in the 1960s pioneered a more naturalistic approach in superhero comics. In the 1970s, Lee challenged the restrictions of the Comics Code Authority, indirectly leading to changes in its policies. In the 1980s, he pursued the development of Marvel properties in other media, with mixed results. Following his retirement from Marvel in the 1990s, Lee remained a public figurehead for the company. He frequently made cameo appearances in films and television shows based on Marvel properties, on which he received an executive producer credit, which allowed him to become the person with the highest-grossing film total ever. He continued independent creative ventures until his death, aged 95, in 2018. Lee was inducted into the comic book industry's Will Eisner Award Hall of Fame in 1994 and the Jack Kirby Hall of Fame in 1995. He received the NEA's National Medal of Arts in 2008.

Dr. Bruce Banner, tormented by the monster within, ventures to the Arctic intending to end his life. As he pulls the trigger, he transforms into the Hulk, the shot drowned by a primal roar. Beneath the fractured ice, a frozen figure—Captain America—is briefly visible, buried in the glacier. Now in hiding, Banner seeks a cure, meditating daily with a metronome to suppress the Hulk, focusing on Betty Ross to find calm. His ally, Rick Jones, helps him evade military pursuit and access classified data. Banner contacts Dr. Samuel Sterns, a cellular biologist, who aids in developing a potential antidote using samples of Banner’s blood. Meanwhile, General Thaddeus Ross revives a super-soldier program. Emil Blonsky undergoes gamma and serum treatments, becoming Abomination—a destructive force. A climactic battle in Harlem sees Hulk defeat Abomination. In the chaos, Sterns is contaminated by Banner’s blood, mutating as his mind expands. Hulk disappears, and Ross is left to reflect on the consequences. Post Credits: Ross drinks alone at a bar. Behind him, Tony Stark watches silently from a booth. Colonel William Stryker approaches Ross, handing him a sealed file labeled “Weapon X.” Stryker: “Banner’s not the only one. You want a real weapon? I’ve got something better.” Inside the file, a black-and-white photo of a man with claws—Logan.
