The Man on Japan
May 6th, 2008
I keep forgetting to link to this, and I haven’t seen this posted anywhere else. Otaku USA’s Patrick Macias interviewed Stan Lee about his upcoming collaboration with Shaman King creator Hiroyuki Takei called Ultimo. Besides being the name of a bra manufacturer, Ultimo was already the name of an Iron Man villain. The Man is known for many things, but good memory is not one of them.
Lee’s description of the work process with Takei sounds like a variation of the Marvel Method that was responsible for much of Lee’s success at Marvel. After all the bad business decisions he’s been involved in over the last decade, I hope something worthwhile comes of this. Wait, did he say “dream ranch?” That can’t be good…
