Stan Lee has inked a deal with Disney to create exclusive new content for online distribution. The indefatigable creator will develop new entertainment properties through his POW Entertainment production
company for viewing on iPods and other portables devices.
Speaking at the San Diego Comic Con, Lee declared that he was full of admiration for games developers, saying that “in a videogame, you’re writing many stories within the story. It’s a totally different structure and a totally different philosophy of writing and, I think, a much, much more difficult one. I get the feeling more work goes into these videogames than even goes into the movies.”
One of the first Lee/Pow/Disney projects is Time Jumper, about a teen who travels through time using a mobile phone. Best known for co-creating such iconic characters as Spider-Man, The Fantastic Four and Iron-Man, Stan The Man is also apparently working up a private detective series called Nick Ratchet, an action series called Blaze and a character called Tigress, about a heroine with tiger-like abilities, presumably after being bitten by a big radioactive cat.
Lee adds: “I marvel at the fact the games look as good, and in some cases better, as the most expensive movies. When you watch one of these games it’s like watching the greatest superhero movie, except you’re part of it.”
