Added DiffLines:

* Even after the passing of Creator/StanLee, fanfic writer Creator/CVGWJames occasionally gives him cameos in his stories, such as [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13847060/1/Sonic-and-the-Chitauri-invasion-A-Sonic-and-Marvel-crossover "Sonic and the Chitauri invasion"]] and [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/14172362/1/In-The-Silver-Moonlight-a-Sonic-x-Black-Cat-story "In The Silver Moonlight"]]. It's not just the short stories either--the cameos also happen in his bigger projects, like (again) ''Fanfic/TheCaseOfTheGhostBiker'' and ''Fanfic/MysteriesOfTheUniverse''. It should be noted, however, that none of these appearances refer to Stan Lee by name, due to a policy on [=FanFiction=] that doesn't take kindly to writers including real celebrities into their stories.
