In his life, Stan Lee made an immense impact on comics and film, and Marvel super fan or not, his cameos in Marvel films are Easter eggs that never fail to prompt cheers from the audience.

Although many Marvel Cinematic Universe fans will know him as the guy who shows up in the majority of the movies released by Marvel, Stan actually started doing cameos long before the superhero movies were made. As far back as the 1960’s, Lee would be occasionally inserted in the covers and pages of Marvel comics he was overseeing.

here is every single cameo stan lee has ever done.

“The artists back then would draw me in as a joke or just to have fun,” Lee told the Business Insider. “And I would put some dialogue balloons there and it looked as if I intended it. I didn’t try to do cameos in those days.”

Speaking on his cameos in the films, Lee said that he particularly liked his cameo in “Avenger’s: Age of Ultron” (2015) because “it’s so funny.” He also liked his appearance in “Fantastic 4: Rise of the Silver Surfer,” where he wasn’t allowed in to Reed Richards and Susan Storm’s wedding because the bouncer didn’t believe he was really Stan Lee.

As a tribute to the former president and chairman of Marvel Comics, who has died at the age of 95 today, we’ve compiled a list of every cameo he’s ever done in the Marvel universe.

  1. “The Trial of the Incredible Hulk” (1989)

Stan made his first cameo ever almost 30 years ago in a TV movie. He played the role a of a jury member in David Banner’s imagined trial.

  1. “X-Men” (2000)

Stan’s first feature film cameo was in the premiere “X-Men” film (unfortunately, his “Blade” appearance was removed from the final cut). Fans spotted him selling hot dogs on the beach during Senator Kelly’s emergence from the sea.

Stan reportedly filmed three other cameos on the same day he filmed this one; “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2”, “Spider-Man: Homecoming”, and “Thor: Ragnarok”. In this one, he’s a bus rider so engrossed in a book that he doesn’t notice Doctor Strange and Mordo fall onto the side of the bus.

  1. “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2” (2017)

Dressed as an astronaut, Stan tells celestial beings stories about his life, including the time when he was a postman – a reference to Stan’s role as the FedEx deliveryman in “Iron Man 2”, which caused fans to theorise that Stan actually plays the same character in every MCU film. Kevin Feige confirmed this idea, saying, “We thought it would be fun to put that in there because that really says, ‘So wait a minute, he’s the same character who’s popped up in all these films.”

Stan yells out of a window at Spider-Man for causing a commotion in true old-man style.

Stan’s car gets shrunken by a particle disk just as he’s about to get into it, he reacts saying “Well, the ‘60s were fun, but now I’m paying for it,” LOL

  1. “Venom” (2018)

Stan plays an insightful man walking his tiny dog who tells Eddie Brock “Don’t give up on her… either of you,” as Eddie leaves his ex-fiancé, hinting that he knows about Eddie’s Venom persona.

Venom was the latest film to be released with Stan Lee before his death. But, luckily for us, we’ll have at least one more Stan Lee cameo to look forward to. Back in April, Joe Russo told BBC Radio Scotland that Stan Lee has already filmed his Avengers 4 cameo and will indeed appear in the film, so watch out for him then ok, guys?

We’re gonna miss this legend! Did you manage to spot Stan Lee during all these movies?
