I interviewed Stan Lee for the Houston Chronicle back in the 70s.
I had an old Millie the Model comic book he had written. (Found it in an old fashioned wooden icebox that I bought at an auction) I asked him to sign it. He didn't want to because he thought it had no value. I assured him it had little value either way.
It's about time he made a cameo in Tank.

What I meant to write was:

I asked him to sign it. He didn't want to because he thought SIGNING IT WOULD BRING DOWN the value.

Nice job! I would have recognized him even if you hadn't dropped his
name in the first panel.

I'm not sure I would've recognized him without the name-drop,
though the 'Excelsior!' cry makes it pretty plain. (I don't have a strong
mental impression of what Stan Lee should look like; my comics-reading
period was a long time ago and confined to bizarre choices, by whichI
mean, yeah, i was the guy reading the New Universe line.)
