19. Stan Lee
Any comic book or superhero fan surely knows Stan Lee. He was 39 when he created his first superhero team, The Fantastic Four. During his teen years, he had several experiences working as an usher, office boy, delivery boy, and an obituary writer. – wow, this boy strived hard! His later work included co-writing Romeo and Juliet: The War, a graphic novel which landed a spot in The New York Times’ Best-Seller List and led to the launch of the Youtube Channel, Stan Lee’s World of Heroes.
