Welcome to the Legion!

Stan Lee has been the man of a thousand faces when it comes to making cameos in Marvel superhero films, playing everything from the Fantastic Four’s loyal mail carrier Willie Lumpkin, to a hapless Smithsonian security guard, and even Hugh Hefner! Now Variety has confirmed the Marvel Comics icon will appear on yet another Marvel Studios production, the wonderfully entertaining Agent Carter.

Our own Jenna Busch heard it straight from the Generalissimo’s mouth back in December at Hammer Museum’s Marvel event, but now we know exactly when ol’ Smilin’ Stan will grace our living rooms alongside Peggy, Jarvis, and Howard Stark. Variety reports that Lee will appear on the January 27th episode of Agent Carter, titled “The Blitzkrieg Button.” He’ll be playing a character who has a brief interaction with Howard Stark at a shoeshine stand, judging by that header photo.

Here’s another shot from Variety of Stan Lee with the cast, and it looks like Howard’s sporting quite the shiner! Kinda makes you wonder if Howard tells Stan to go fetch his shinebox, and gets a right hook for mouthing off to the living legend. Excelsior!
