DC Comics Celebrates Stan Lee’s Centenary With ‘Tales From Earth-6: A Celebration Of Stan Lee’ One-Shot

While I am more than sure Marvel will be cooking up something special to celebrate what would have been Stan Lee’s 100th birthday, DC Comics are also laying a claim to “The Man” too with a new one-shot featuring the reimagined DC Comics’ characters Lee ushered in in 2002 – 2002 in his series of Just Imagine one-shots.

Tales from Earth-6: A Celebration of Stan Lee, is a commemorative one-shot anthology featuring 10 new stories based on Lee’s (and film producer Michael Uslan’s) interpretations of core DC characters. The writers announced will be Michael Uslan, Mark Waid (Kingdom Come, Batman vs. Robin, Batman/Superman: World’s Finest), Jerry Ordway (Superman, Action Comics), Kenny Porter (DC: Mech), Stephanie Williams (Nubia & the Amazons, Trial of the Amazons), Michael W. Conrad and Becky Cloonan (Wonder Woman, Batgirls), Collin Kelly and Jackson Lanzing (Batman Beyond: Neo-Year), Meghan Fitzmartin (Tim Drake: Robin), Steve Orlando (Martian Manhunter), and Zac Thompson (Batman: Urban Legends).

Art comes from Lee Weeks, Kevin Maguire, Jerry Ordway, Karl Mostert, Juan Ferreyra, Anthony Marques, Pablo M. Collar, Belén Ortega, Max Dunbar, and Hayden Sherman and Jim Cheung (Justice League), who will be contributing a wrap around cover. Variant covers will feature art by Steve Beach (Batman), Riley Rossmo (Justice League), Jason Howard (Green Lantern), Kelley Jones (The Sandman), Ariel Colon (Superman), Kyle Hotz (Shazam!), Christian Ward (The Flash), Clayton Henry (Wonder Woman), Jorge Corona (Aquaman), Belén Ortega, and Dan Panosian (Catwoman), plus a 1:25 ratio variant cover by Cully Hamner.
