Stan Lee's Life Takes Another Bizarre Turn as His Blood is Being Used To Stamp His Name on Comic Books
It's been a rough year for Stan Lee with his health problems and all of the people who have been taking advantage of him. He's been hospitalized for heart problems, he was battling pneumonia, he was robbed of $1.4 million, and he was being accused of sexual assault in an effort to shake him down for money.
His life has taken an even more bizarre turn. According to an insider that talked to the Daily Beast, "It’s a real fucking mess over there. I think his money will be gone in a few weeks… Stan and [his daughter] JC are literally being picked apart by vultures."
To make things even stranger, TMZ is reporting that a former business partner associated with Hands of Respect allegedly forged medical documents last October to instruct Lee’s personal nurse to drain several vials of blood from Lee. Their sources say "the nurse pulled enough blood from Stan for him to feel lightheaded and dizzy."
That blood was then used to stamp Lee's signature onto several recent Marvel Comics and sold at Marvel Avengers S.T.A.T.I.O.N. store on the Las Vegas Strip. Each edition came with a certificate of authentication that details the item as a "Hand-Stamped Signature of STAN LEE using Stan Lee's Solvent DNA Ink." Wow! This is a letter that was sent out by the collectible comic shop after they made the deal with Hands of Respect. Mind you, they thought this was all legit and didn't know what was really going behind the scenes.

Once the store found out this wasn't on the up and up, they removed the comics from the shelves. The statement claims Cleansnap was behind the ink, the thing is... Cleansnap doesn’t even exist. A legal rep for Marvel Avengers S.T.A.T.I.O.N. made the following statement:
"We’re a retail store which purchased product from Hands of Respect LLC and DLK Brand Consulting LLC that appeared certified and obtained with authorization. The books were removed from our shelves immediately."
What in the hell is wrong with people!? Lee is 95 years old! Leave him alone! It amazes me that people actually think they will get away with this shit. This kind of stuff isn't just happening with Lee, there are lots of elderly people who are being preyed upon by vultures like this.
