An Evening with Stan Lee and Kevin Smith - A Report

NEWSARAMA: "The past met the present, with about 1000 close personal friends in tow, on the campus of UCLA on Saturday night, December 2nd. Stan Lee and Joe Quesada entertained a raucous crowd at “Marvel Then and a Now,” a fundraising event put on by The Hero Initiative (www.HeroInitiative.org). Stan and Joe shared their stories and observations of over 60 years of Marvel history, aided and abetted by Kevin Smith, who hosted the event.

Stan Lee showed up sporting a full beard, the likes of which he hasn’t been seen with since he starred in Smith’s film, Mallrats. Smith, in a nod to that shared past, showed up wearing his old “Silent Bob” long green coat."
