Line 116:
** And the Thing? Just because he's Jewish and was from the same part of New York as Jack Kirby [[Blatant Lies|does ''not'' mean he is based on Jack Kirby]].
* [[Stan Lee]] once admitted that of all his characters, he identified most with his most popular character, [[Spider-Man]], and even that he had modeled Spidey's way of talking on his own.
** He also claimed that J. Jonah Jameson - the [[Mean Boss]] at the ''Daily Bugle'' - was supposed to be a grouchier version of himself, and that he would have loved to portray the character had anyone asked.
** He also mentioned in an interview that his own traits were the basis of Reed Richards' tendency to over-explain everything (and subsequently get yelled at). Now look back on all Ben and Reed's interactions in the Lee-Kirby issues of the [[Fantastic Four (Comic Book)|Fantastic Four]]...
** He also has an in-canon avatar called The One Above All.
