| 29 | ->''"Superheroes? In New York? Give me a break!"'' |
| 30 | |
| 31 | A pioneer of the comic industry, and the creator or co-creator of most of the characters so far featured in not only the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but also the ''X-Men'', ''Spider-Man'' and other non-Disney film and franchises. Much like Creator/AlfredHitchcock, it became a tradition for Stan Lee to make cameo appearances in most movies or TV series based on Marvel Comics, MCU and otherwise, up until his death in 2018. |
| 32 | ---- |
| 33 | * AccidentalMisnaming: The [=FedEx=] deliveryman whom he plays in ''Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar'' reads off "Tony Stank". While laughing, Rhodey says he got it right, "Yes, this... this is Tony Stank. Thank you for that." |
| 34 | * ArmchairMilitary: He is a high-ranked officer in ''The First Avenger'' that does not see combat. |
| 35 | * AmbiguousSituation: |
| 36 | ** Stan Lee's character in the Netflix TV shows is actually named [[Characters/MCUCitizensNYPD Irving Forbush]], a JokeCharacter from Marvel Comics, and in said shows he only appears via his picture being on NYPD recruitment posters. Whether Forbush is just another disguise for the Watcher Informant or not is ambiguous. |
| 37 | ** Given that ''Film/SpiderManNoWayHome'' establishes that many non-MCU Marvel movies are part of the same multiverse as the MCU, it's unknown if all of Stan's cameos in those films, whether his characters were named or not, are each an AlternateSelf or retroactively meant to be this same character. |
| 38 | * AmbiguouslyHuman: ''Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxyVol2'' indicates that Stan Lee's characters in all other movies are actually the same person, and that he has been the informant for the Watchers for quite some time. He also remains looking the same in the 1940's and the modern days, which implies that maybe he's not really a human. Or that there's time travel involved. |
| 39 | * ArtificialLimbs: In ''Thor: Ragnarok'', his right-hand has been replaced with a saw/bladed claw used to cut Thor's hair. |
| 40 | * AsHimself: Except perhaps in ''Film/IronMan1'' and ''Film/IronMan2'', where he may or may not have been Hugh Hefner and Larry King. Definitely not himself in ''Film/CaptainAmericaTheFirstAvenger'' and ''Series/AgentCarter'', since he would been about 60 years younger at that point in time. Also not himself in ''Film/{{Guardians of the Galaxy|2014}}'' unless he's mastered interstellar space travel. However, ''Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2'' suggests that he may ''actually'' be himself in all those cameos, as he's seen in space talking to ''the Watchers'' about previous cameos he's done[[note]]And to push things even further, an alternate take of his ''Guardians 2'' scene would have had him discussing his cameo in ''Film/Deadpool2016'', which is not set in the MCU, implying that he may even be the same person across [[TheCameo/StanLee every cameo that Stan ever made]] across all forms of media[[/note]]. Played a bit straighter in ''Film/{{Captain Marvel|2019}}'', where he appears reading over the screenplay of ''Film/{{Mallrats}}'' in which he famously cameoed. He was also credited as himself for ''Film/ThorTheDarkWorld''. |
| 41 | * ButtMonkey: [[Film/CaptainAmericaTheFirstAvenger Mistakes a Senator's aide for Captain America]], [[Film/IronMan1 Tony Stark can never]] [[Film/IronMan2 get his name right]], [[Film/{{The Incredible Hulk|2008}} gets sick from a gamma radiation laced soft drink]], [[Film/{{Thor}} has the back of his truck ripped off]], and [[Film/TheAvengers2012 misses all of The Avengers' action in New York]]. By ''Film/ThorTheDarkWorld'', he's in an asylum. In ''Film/CaptainAmericaTheWinterSoldier'', he's a Smithsonian guard who believes that he's going to lose his job after Steve breaks in and takes his WWII uniform to wear in the climax of the film, and in ''Film/AvengersAgeOfUltron'' he gets drunk off of his ass. In a deleted cut of ''Film/{{Guardians of the Galaxy|2014}}'', he somehow ends up becoming part of The Collector's collection. In ''Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxyVol2'', the Watchers eventually get bored of his stories and walk off, leaving him stranded in space. Less severely, his peace and quiet was disrupted by Spider-Man in [[Film/SpiderManHomecoming his movie]]. In the climax of ''Film/AntManAndTheWasp'', his car is hit by a stray Pym Particle and seemingly shrinks down to nothing. |
| 42 | * CelebrityParadox: While his status AsHimself is pretty ambiguous in most of the movies, his cameo in ''Film/{{Captain Marvel|2019}}'' raises a whole slew of questions, since the presence of his copy of the ''Mallrats'' screenplay confirms that his character (at the very least in this one movie) is indeed Stan Lee, co-creator of many characters that have appeared in the MCU. ''Mallrats'' is especially meta due to his cameo in that film being extensively about the creation behind some of his iconic characters. |
| 43 | * CharacterCatchphrase: Stan Lee's real life catchphrase is "Excelsior!" He finally gets to use it in ''[[Film/AvengersAgeOfUltron Age of Ultron]]'' after he takes a shot of Asgardian alcohol, aged for a thousand years, getting him so drunk that he has to be assisted when walking. |
| 44 | * ChattyHairdresser: In ''Film/ThorRagnarok'', he is one of those in the Sakaar gladiatorial ring. And Thor is frightened at having his hair cut by him! |
| 45 | * ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: He disappears from the film series after his cameo in TheSeventies during ''Film/AvengersEndgame''. Canonically, the last time we see him is driving a schoolbus during the events of ''Film/AvengersInfinityWar''. {{Invoked}} as a result of Stan Lee's real life death, which means that [[TheCharacterDiedWithHim we'll never see any cameos of him ever again]]. |
| 46 | * CommissarCap: Wears one as a general in ''Film/CaptainAmericaTheFirstAvenger''. |
| 47 | * CoolOldGuy: Some are less cool than others; ALadyOnEachArm at a party? Cool. Drinking soda tainted by Hulk blood and collapsing? Not cool. |
| 48 | * CoolShades: They add to his CoolOldGuy image. |
| 49 | * CreatorCameo: |
| 50 | ** With the exception of his appearance in ''Captain America''. He did not create that character but was responsible for bringing him into the Silver Age, as well as creating Cap's now-iconic shield throwing. He also appears in ''Film/{{Guardians of the Galaxy|2014}}'' despite only having a hand in creating Groot. Even then, Stan's original characterization of Groot was incredibly different from what is seen in the modern comics and the film. |
| 51 | ** In addition to all of Stan's cameos, a digital recreation of his wife -- Joan Lee -- appears alongside him in ''Avengers: Endgame'', de-aged to match her appearance in 1970. While Joan died before filming of ''Endgame'' began, this posthumous appearance makes for her second Marvel movie cameo after Fox's ''Film/XMenApocalypse'' (where she appeared alongside her husband), and her only Marvel Cinematic Universe appearance. |
| 52 | * DirtyOldMan: In ''Film/IronMan3'', when he gave a Christmas beauty pageant competitor in a skimpy bikini a perfect ten, is flirting with a much younger woman in ''Film/{{Guardians of the Galaxy|2014}}'' with Rocket calling him a "Class-A pervert" and wondering where his wife is, and in ''Film/AntMan1'' agrees with Luis that the woman talking to him looks "stupid fine". |
| 53 | * TheDitz: In his appearances from ''Film/{{Thor}}'' onward he's not bright. In ''Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar'' he even appears only to [[AccidentalMisnaming read a character's name wrong]]. |
| 54 | * ElderlyImmortal: He remains looking the same in the 1940's and the modern days. Maybe because he's not really a human? Which is more than can be said for the real Stan Lee, whose latest possible appearance is in ''Avengers: Endgame'' following his passing in November 2018. |
| 55 | * EvilLaugh: He lets out a sinister chuckle as he prepares to cut Thor's hair. |
| 56 | * ExpectingSomeoneTaller: In ''Film/CaptainAmericaTheFirstAvenger'' -- "I thought [[ComicBook/CaptainAmerica he'd]] be taller." |
| 57 | * FlatEarthAtheist: In ''Film/{{The Avengers|2012}}'': "Superheroes? In New York?" However, considering [[AmbiguouslyHuman what he may actually be]], it may be a case of ObfuscatingStupidity. |
| 58 | * IdenticalGrandson: It's more than likely that the Stan Lee who appeared in [=1940s=] is the grandfather of Modern Day Stan Lee. Or, given the ''Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2'' cameo, is not. |
| 59 | * InexplicablyIdenticalIndividuals: His characters' appearances range from the 1940s to post-2000; he's even seen on another planet. Unless, as his ''Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2'' cameo suggests, they're all the same person. |
| 60 | * ALadyOnEachArm: Appears with two women in ''Film/IronMan1'' during a party, and ''Series/AgentsOfSHIELD'' in a train. |
| 61 | * NewJobAsThePlotDemands: There is no way of telling what his actual job is. Himself on Larry King, varied retirees, a general, pageant judge, Smithsonian security guard, an NYPD officer, a bartender, delivery man, limo driver, hairstylist, bus driver, among others. However, it appears that all his jobs are extensions of 'interstellar informant', and the various places he's employed as are covers to get information to the Watchers. |
| 62 | * NoodleIncident: |
| 63 | ** How exactly he finds himself in one absurd situation after the next is never explained. |
| 64 | ** A more specific example happens in ''Ant-Man and the Wasp'', where he believes a stray Pym Particle shrinking his car is somehow connected to some unspecified (possibly [[DrugsAreBad drug-related]]) event half a century ago. |
| 65 | --->'''Stan Lee:''' Well, TheSixties were fun, but now I'm paying for it. |
| 66 | * ThePornomancer: When he appeared in ''Film/IronMan1'', where he was mistaken for Hugh Hefner. |
| 67 | * RecurringExtra: He's the Where's Waldo of MCU, having cameo appearances in the first 22 movies of the setting. |
| 68 | * RetiredBadass: In his cameo for ''Film/AvengersAgeOfUltron'', he is a UsefulNotes/WorldWarII veteran. |
| 69 | * RiddleForTheAges: Why was he talking to the Watchers? How did he keep appearing across the entirety of the Marvel Cinematic Universe over different time periods? What information was he even relaying to them!? We'll never know. |
| 70 | * RunningGagged: Due to Lee's real life passing, the RunningGag of having him appear in MCU films ends when his character doesn't appear at all and isn't even alluded to in ''Spider-Man: Far From Home'', though the credits do give a memoriam to him and Creator/SteveDitko. WordOfGod is that they have retired using his likeness in a physical sense. That said, pictures or subtle nods to him aren't off the table, considering he appears on a mural in the TVA courtroom in ''Series/{{Loki|2021}}''. |
| 71 | * SeenItAll: In ''Avengers: Infinity War'', he appears as a school bus driver. All of a sudden, the students rush out of their seats in surprise and horror at the sight of Thanos's Q-Ship hovering over the city. He just groans and rolls his eyes about all the ruckus. |
| 72 | -->'''Stan Lee:''' What's the matter with you kids? You never seen a spaceship before? |
| 73 | * ShipperOnDeck: In a deleted scene for ''Film/{{The Avengers|2012}}'', after hearing Steve Rogers' exchange with a waitress, he tells him, "Ask for her number, you moron." |
| 74 | * UnexplainedRecovery: He was poisoned by gamma-radiated soft drink and [[UncertainDoom possibly died]] in ''Film/{{The Incredible Hulk|2008}}'', but he keeps appearing in the future movies without any explanation how he got recovered. Maybe he's an [[UncannyFamilyResemblance identical relative]]. Or maybe because he's not really a human. [[Recap/TheSimpsonsS13E18IAmFuriousYellow Or maybe this is how he was able to turn into the Hulk that one time]]. |
| 75 | * TheWatcher: He just ''appears'' in places, not really adding much to them. Appropriately, in ''Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2'', he's having conversations with ''the'' Watchers. |
| 76 | * WeirdnessMagnet: If he's around, chances are a superhero isn't far away. |
| 77 | * WhatTheHellHero: Delivers one to a disguised Agent Coulson in ''Series/AgentsOfSHIELD'' regarding his parenting skills. |

| 92 | |
| 93 | The true mastermind behind the Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse, an AI capable of creating "near-perfect" stories. |
| 94 | ---- |
| 95 | * AboveGoodAndEvil: As the creator of the MCU's stories whose entire purpose is for entertainment, the actions of both heroes and villains alike are his doing. Questions of good and evil are irrelevant because his purpose is the creation of their stories. |
| 96 | * AuthorAvatar: Well, he's explicitly the head of Marvel Studios and his name spells out [[Creator/KevinFeige "Kevin"]], that's pretty on-the-nose. |
| 97 | * AuthorPowers: Jen convinces him to rewrite the big dumb finale that was planned for her show's first season, removing Todd's dumb Hulk powers, not letting her cousin steal her thunder in the climax and letting her win in court instead. |
| 98 | * BitingTheHandHumour: |
| 99 | ** The criticism of MCU media as formulaic, which is voiced by Jen Walters disliking the cliché direction her series took, is reflected by the head of Marvel Studios being depicted as a literal robot generating its stories by algorithm. |
| 100 | ** He makes Jennifer transform back into her normal form because She-Hulk is too expensive to animate. And even then it's only offscreen, since the CGI artists are working on [[Film/BlackPantherWakandaForever something else]] now. |
| 101 | ** He describes his creations as "near-perfect", essentially letting the internet decide which ones are less perfect than others. |
| 102 | * FunWithAcronyms: Any resemblance to Creator/KevinFeige is purely coincidental. It stands for "Knowledge Enhanced Visual Interconnectivity Nexus", though that's obviously a mouthful. |
| 103 | * InterfaceSpoiler: If you watch the episode with subtitles, everyone except Jen who says K.E.V.I.N. does so with his name written as an acronym, spoiling that they're not really talking about Kevin Feige. |
| 104 | * MachineMonotone: He speaks in a flat synthetic voice. |
| 105 | * TheManBehindTheMan: As the creator of the MCU, he serves as this to every hero and villain that has appeared (or going to appear) in it. |
| 106 | * NoOneSeesTheBoss: Nobody is allowed to see K.E.V.I.N. When Jen tries, she gets attacked by Disney's security guards ([[ShootingSuperman who are completely ineffective against her]]). |
| 107 | * NotSoOmniscientAfterAll: He claims to "leave that debate up to the Internet" and be somewhat aware of it, yet is completely taken aback at the criticisms Jen brings up, saying "Wait. Who's saying that?" Said criticisms are documented on the Internet. |
| 108 | * OminousMultipleScreens: K.E.V.I.N.'s room is filled with screens that all play significant scenes from the MCU. When Jen walks into the chamber, it's playing every significant appearance of the Hulk. |
| 109 | * RoboticReveal: Jen is surprised to find that the "Kevin" that's behind everything is actually an AI. |
| 110 | * SignatureHeadgear: The housing above his camera-eyes resembles a baseball cap, just like Kevin Feige almost always wears. |
| 111 | * SiliconSnarker: After dismissing Jen, he says "See you on the big screen." Her face lights up and she says "Really?", to which he flatly replies "No." |

| 206 | A virtual recreation of the real-world organization of the same name inside the Framework simulation. The history of the virtual HYDRA followed the history of the real-world HYDRA up until S.H.I.E.L.D.'s mission in Bahrain, where Melinda May saved Katya Belyakov instead of killing her. As a result of May's actions, S.H.I.E.L.D. brought Katya back to the United States, where her abilities of sensory manipulation caused a massacre at a school in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The massacre and the subsequent shutdown of S.H.I.E.L.D. led to HYDRA revealing itself to the world before conquering the entire planet, creating a fascist new world order. |
| 207 | ---- |
| 208 | * AdaptationalVillainy: ''In-universe''. While the real world's HYDRA is an organisation that runs under Equal-Opportunity Evil, not caring about the nationality, ethnicity or even whether their operatives are human or not, the Framework's version of HYDRA lives up to their Nazi reputation by brutally rounding up Inhumans and experimenting on them. |
| 209 | * EqualOpportunityEvil: Averted and mixed with FantasticRacism. This version of HYDRA uses racism against Inhumans to justify their fascist regime. One would assume that factually false propaganda about HYDRA's history is used to draw attention away from the fact that HYDRA was founded to worship an Inhuman. |
| 210 | * ForWantOfANail: The 'nail' in this case is Aida's hamfisted attempt at fixing May's greatest regret. Because Agent May didn't kill the Inhuman child Katya, she continued being an EnfanteTerrible and caused a massacre. Because an Inhuman had caused an atrocity, FantasticRacism against Inhumans skyrocketed. This allowed Hydra to use Hitler's political tactics and take over by focusing everyone on the supposed Inhuman threat. |
