Stan Lee had a profound influence on both my childhood and adulthood. I can't even imagine how many other people he's inspired and touched through his works. Rest in peace Stan Lee; you will be remembered by all of us.

I don't know what this has to do with HN, other than he's a prolific figure from American male culture. I guess it's a "nerd culture" thing too? Is this a nerd culture site?

From the guidelines on what's topical: "Anything that good hackers would find interesting. That includes more than hacking and startups."
Given the amount of non-topical stuff that makes it to the front page ("Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon.") I'd say this is more closely aligned with the interests of many HN readers.

I'd say yes.
