JC Lee says the late co-creator of Marvel was helping her develop Dirt Man, after 'trying to get him to do a character with me my entire life'.

The late Lee's daughter has revealed that the comics legend was working on one final superhero before he died: Dirt Man.

JC Lee told TMZ that she had been “trying to get Stan Lee to do a character with me my entire life”. “We have been working on a character called Dirt Man. The last little angel we've got tucked away is called Dirt Man,” she said. “I said, 'Daddy please, no clatter, no steel, no any of that. Let's get down and dirty… Let's do Dirt Man.”

An audibly choked Lee revealed nothing else about the character, but said: “It is very interesting. It's not over yet, we still have a little trickery,” and saying that she hoped it would be made into a film.

Lee died on 12 November at the age of 95, leaving the world iconic superhero characters including Iron Man, Thor, the Hulk and Spider-Man. His death prompted an outpouring of tributes from fans around the world.
