Stan Lee Meets the Real Tony Starks at Legacy Effects
When it comes to iconic character creators, Stan "The Man" Lee has few rivals. His comic book superheroes (and supervillains) are household names around the globe. And with the help of the Character FX magicians at Legacy Effects, Stan Lee's characters have soared off the pages of comic books and onto movie screens worldwide.

A Behind the Scenes Tour of Legacy Effects with Stan Lee
We recently filmed Stan's visit to Legacy, where co-founders John Rosengrant, Shane Mahan, Alan Scott, Lindsay Macgowan, and the entire staff gave him a hands-on tour of the workshop, showing him step-by-step how they bring his legendary characters to life. It was an unforgettable day spent with a brilliant man, and we're happy to share a glimpse of the visit in the video at the top of the page.
