We lost Stan Lee at the age of 95 yesterday, and today Apple is honoring the legendary comic book creator with a special story in the App Store. “Storytelling wouldn’t be what it is today without Stan Lee,” reads the opening to the app collection inspired by the late Spider-Man co-creator.

Apple’s Remembering Stan Lee story continues:

“He wasn’t just the wisecracking bystander who made a cameo in dozens of superhero movies. As a writer, editor-in-chief, publisher, and chairman, Lee created many of Marvel Comics’ most enduring characters — from the Avengers to Spider-Man — and turned millions of readers into true believers. Today we celebrate Lee’s legacy with apps and games featuring his iconic crimefighters in all their masked glory.”

Inside the story is a collection of ten apps in three groups: Read and Draw, Play the games, and Act and learn. The eight comic book reader apps and games include Marvel Unlimited, Marvel: Color Your Own, comiXology, Olli by Tinrocket, Contest of Champions, Strike Force, Battle Lines, and Avengers Academy.

The latter section of the remembrance is especially interesting:

“Lee served in the Army during World War II, so it’s no surprise that he wrote many stories for an especially iconic character: Captain America. In his honor, send a letter to a service member with Sandboxx. And learn more about the master’s craft through Lee’s two instruction texts, How to Write Comics and How to Draw Comics, both available in Apple Books.”
