Stan Lee’s Comikaze Expo To Be Renamed ‘Stan Lee’s Los Angeles Comic Con’

Earlier today Stan Lee was honored by the city of Los Angeles. Recognizing him for his decades-longs contributions to the city’s entertainment industry. So the City of Los Angeles decided to give Stan The Man his very own day – “Stan Lee Day.” In recognition of this honor, “Stan Lee’s Comikaze Expo,” will now officially be renamed “Stan Lee’s Los Angeles Comic Con.”

As part of the ceremony, Los Angeles Councilmember Curren D. Price will designate Friday, October 28 as “Stan Lee Day” in recognition of his substantial contributions to the City’s entertainment community and involvement, and in helping create Los Angeles Comic Con, held annually on Halloween weekend, as a world-class event celebrating the city’s comic book, pop culture and entertainment community.

Stan Lee has had a busy 2016 so far, earlier this week Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige revealed that Stan had already filmed his next 4 cameos for the MCU including a quick easter egg in the upcoming ‘Luke Cage’ for Netflix.

We here at Geekscape have always seen Stan Lee affectionately as our very own crazy Grunkle Stan, since back in the day when we used to be known as Dickscape. We also have always had close ties to Stan Lee doing various interviews and have been apart of Comikaze Expo since the very first one in 2011. Stan Lee even sent us his well wishes during Geekscape’s 400th episode extravaganza. We are looking forward to standing by his side for many more Expos to come so make sure you look for us this year.
