Stan Lee on the Walk of Fame

Stan Lee, creator of most of Marvel's comic book characters including the more famous Spider-Man, Iron Man, the X-Men, the Hulk and Thor, has been awarded a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in Los Angeles, USA. The 89-year old comic book legend is the 2,428th person to be given a star on the famous strip. "Wouldja believe I'm on the same block as Paul Newman and Sophia Loren," an excited Lee told the Washington Post. "I really still can't believe it. I think they have me confused with someone else, but I'm not gonna tell them!"
