The Marvel icon, Stan Lee, was finally seen for the first time after facing multiple sexual misconduct allegations from former house nurses and even a masseuse. Now, one factor that's clear to remember is that these are only allegations, nothing has been proven and sources have said that only the masseuse is taking clear legal action, as for the nursing company, no lawsuit has surfaced and no authorities have been involved. As a big Stan Lee fan myself, I hope that these allegations only remain to be allegations, it'd be extremely disappointing and heartbreaking for the Marvel community to deal with a situation like this.
What are the details?
According to the source of the allegation behind the incident with the masseuse, while Stan Lee went to Chicago with his Road Manager, Max Anderson, Max arranged a massage session with a masseuse. The masseuse claims that when she arrived, both Stan and his manager were drunk and while she was massaging Stan, he began to masturbate, asked for sexual intercourse, and groped her. She is currently demanding money and is going back and forth between lawyers.
Regarding the house nurses, numerous accusations have been made that Stan Lee, on multiple occasions, has asked for oral sex in the shower, strolled around naked, and wanted to be pleasured in the bedroom. But again, there is no evidence of a current lawsuit or police complaint.
Stan Lee's lawyer has recently released a statement on Stan Lee's stance towards the accusations:
"Mr. Lee categorically denies these allegations and he fully intends to fight to protect his stellar good name and impeccable character. Mr. Lee has not offered any money to settle this claim, and no negotiations have ever occurred regarding any payment to this accuser. This accusation is another example of a demand that Mr. Lee has received to pay money and threat that if he does not do so, the accuser will hold a press conference and go to the media. Mr. Lee will not be extorted or blackmailed and will pay no money to anyone because he has done absolutely nothing wrong."
I've loved Stan Lee my whole life and I'm supporting him on this one, I pray that I'm right.
Stan Lee is gifted the key to the city of Glendale!

Despite all of the uproar from the allegations, Stan Lee was enjoying his time at Ace Comic-Con in Arizona yesterday at a private event in which the mayor of Glendale presented Stan Lee with a special coin and this coin is turned over, it displays the key to the city.
The mayor told Stan Lee:
"My part for you is not a proclamation, my part for you is a challenge coin. This is the city of Glendale and I want you to have my challenge con and then on the opposite side it says from the office of the mayor, of course, Glendale Arizona, and then your own key."
Stan Lee graciously accepted it and jokingly said:
"Isn't that great it's heavy, too. It'll break a hole in my pocket. I'll have to pay the tailor extra money for it."
Stan Lee won't be letting these allegations hold him completely down, even though the Arizona Coyotes canceled his pregame appearance at a hockey game. All in all, let's hope that the backlash remains somewhat calm until these issues have been resolved.
It's happened countless times where people have attempted to drain Stan Lee's pockets by making false allegations towards him and threatened to go to the media. From what I know, Stan Lee is an amazing individual who has shaped a lot of Marvel fan's childhoods, including mine, in astonishing ways with the creation of so many iconic superheroes. Stan the Man is already 95 years old, we all want him to live the rest of his life at peace. So what do you think about these allegations? Do you believe they're true or not? I'd love to hear your opinion on it so comment down below!
