To say that Stan Lee was a significant force in the art of comics is a significant understatement. He, and collaborators such as Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko, changed forever just how relatable, impactful, and flawed yet noble characters in superhero stories - no matter the medium - could be. In this episode, the SSN Crew discusses Stan Lee's career and his impact on entertainment. In addition, we review Steve McQueen's new film "Widows," and discuss Channing Dungey's exit from ABC, the final upcoming season of "Game of Thrones," and how "She-Ra and the Princesses of Power" might be Themyscira After Dark.
