LOS ANGELES (KABC) --
The undisputed king of comic books Stan Lee was honored at Los Angeles City Hall on Tuesday.

City councilmembers announced they would officially dedicate a day in celebration of Lee's legacy.

Friday, Oct. 28, will be declared "Stan Lee Day" in the city of Los Angeles.

It's also the opening day for Stan Lee's Los Angeles Comic Con.

Lee said he couldn't think of a better city to host his pop-culture convention.

"Los Angeles is the home of entertainment. This is where it all starts," Lee said before the city council. "This is the movie capital of the world, the music capital of the world, everything, it's all here in L.A."

Lee created the legendary works of Spiderman, The Avengers and hundreds of other pop-culture icons.

"I am certainly proud as can be to be here today and to have been treated as beautifully as I have been, I can't thank you nearly enough," Lee said. "Bless you all, you've made me incredibly happy."

LOS ANGELES (CBSLA.com) — An omnipresent figure in the Marvel universe made a cameo appearance as himself at Los Angeles City Hall Tuesday.

The Los Angeles City Council officially dedicated October 28 as Stan Lee Day, which will also be the opening day of his three-day celebration of comics, video games, sci-fi, fantasy, horror and all things pop culture. Previously called “Stan Lee’s Comikaze Expo,” the event will be renamed “Stan Lee’s Los Angeles Comic Con.”

The godfather of Marvel comics has helped create Spider-Man, The Avengers and the X-Men, among countless other characters. Lee is also known for making cameos in dozens of Marvel films and TV shows.

Edit
I wonder if we will now see the Comikaze Expo (Stan Lee Comic Con) in other cities, now.
