STAN LEE'S WIFE JOAN PASSES AWAY...

I'm sure that all Criv-ites would like to pass on their con-

dolences to STAN LEE and his family, on the sad death of

Stan's beloved wife JOAN.  British-born Joan was a model

when she and Stan met, and it's believed that Stan came up

with The FANTASTIC FOUR in response to Joan's sug-

gestion that he write comics the way he'd like to see

them written.  The rest, as they say, is history.
