In the part one, "Creating Spider-Man," Stan Lee talks about getting the original idea, collaborating with Steve Ditko, developing side characters, and the eventual TV and film adaptations. Part two, "Here Come the Heroes," explores his other creations, including the birth of the Fantastic Four, the Incredible Hulk, and the X-Men. Both parts are presented in a widescreen transfer with Dolby Digital Stereo sound. This disc includes Stan Lee's original poem God Woke, and a previously unreleased Fantastic Four short. Extra features include a two-minute behind-the-scenes featurette; an interview with the artist's wife, Joan Lee; and home movie footage. ~ Andrea LeVasseur, Rovi

    Kevin Smith isn't much of an interviewer, but this is a really nice set of documentaries.

    Interesting to watch. Only if your a comic book fan. You would definately think this was boring if you weren't a fan of Stan Lee or Kevin Smith. Good information in this interview.

    A really good sit down with the godfather of modern comics. Kevin Smith is really likabe and Stan the man Lee is great

    Good information for the comic book geek, but I was much more impressed with Smith's skill at extracting answers than I was with Lee's stories. It was funny to me that KS seemed to know more about some of the history than Stan 'the man' Lee himself. Very soild overall though.
