Bernie Wrightson's opinion of Lee as editor
Patrick Ford
19 March 2017
Rejected by Stan Lee.
Norris Burroughs: Wrightson told me that everyone hated the art on that entire story. I loved it, although the reproduction was terrible.
Patrick Ford: Wrightson was supposed to be the regular artist on the title but Lee didn't like his work.
Norris Burroughs: What a loss.
Aaron Noble: Talked to Bernie last year about this story. He wanted the color to bleach out to black and white for the climactic panel in which "silence screams". Stan looked at him and said "we publish comics in color." I said "what a dick!" Bernie said "Stan Lee was a total fucking dick!" RIP

Patrick Ford: I'm glad Aaron Noble commented concerning Wrightson's recent comments on Lee. I strongly suspect that he revealed his true feelings in TCJ interview when he called Lee a phony glad-hander and that in saying he had come to see Lee as more than that he was just being polite because he was selling work to Marvel at the time.
