Artist Pays Tribute to Stan Lee with Eerily Lifelike Bust

It’s been over two years since we lost comic book legend Stan “the Man” Lee. And yet, his pop culture creations continue to live on for all time. Right now, we’re all obsessing about WandaVision and all its characters. Well, Stan co-created Wanda, Pietro, and Agatha Harkness. The man’s creative fingerprints are everywhere. Therefore, we will always “stan Stan.”

But for those of you out there that need a more permanent reminder of the man who helped put Marvel Comics on the map, Etsy seller monsterscollectibles has got you covered. They’ve made a very realistic bust of Stan Lee, one that’s so lifelike it’s kind of creepy. You can check out images of this wildly lifelike bust right here, thanks to Geeks are Sexy.
