Marvel’s Stan Lee Returns to ‘The Simpsons’ as Guest Star

Stan Lee, 90, is best known as the co-creator of such Marvel superheroes as Spider-Man, The Hulk, and The X-Men, but in an upcoming episode of the ‘Simpsons’, he will be handing out love advice.

The ‘Simpsons’ next season (it’s 25^th) will see Comic Book Guy in a blossoming relationship, according to Entertainment Weekly. As usual, Homer manages to get in the way, standing to ruin Comic Book Guy’s happiness with “an attractive young Japanese woman/Manga fan.” Lee stops by Comic Book Guy’s store to provide some advice on comics and romance.

Lee previously appeared in the 13^th season of ‘The Simpsons’ in The Android’s Dungeon & Baseball Card Shop.

Stan was a joy to work with once again,” ‘Simpsons’ exec producer Al Jean tells EW, “and we look forward to having him back on the show in another twelve years.”

The 25^th season of the ‘Simpsons’ will also see Seth MacFarlane, Gordon Ramset, Joe Namath, and Aaron Sorkin guest-starring.
