Stan Lee and Digital Comics

Huff Post reports on comic book veteran Stan Lee's newest venture:

MTV ... is joining forces with Lee's POW Entertainment to create a new digital comic series called "The Seekers."

"It involves superheroes, it involves a very high-concept plot, it's a story such as you never have seen before, and it spans the centuries," Lee said ...

Stan Lee Media had a short, red-hot run in the 1990s. But it ended up like many other dot com businesses of the time, owning a profit and loss model that did not work. (And it was less than helpful that Mr. L.'s business partner turned out to be not entirely honest ...)

He's made a living off of making deals instead of good ideas or content.

Content? That's where we come in! Don't scorn the talents of those who can spin bullshit into gold & pay your wages with it.

Nope. Prime example? Cartoon Network. All spun bullshit with no content, no ideas, and no entertainment.
