If you're looking for something to binge, go inside the Marvel-ous mind of the man responsible for bringing to life some of the most iconic characters in the history of comics.

It's the first day of summer and some places like Houston are experiencing extreme high temperatures, so why don't you stay inside, where it's nice and cool, and binge this new special on Disney+?

Gelb told ABC13 that he takes us through Lee's origin story. Starting from when Lee, who grew up poor during the Depression, would pick up whatever he could get ahold of to read in order to entertain himself. He then highlights Lee's passion for creating superheroes who are just like normal people. In the documentary, we learn that the Marvel series didn't actually come right away or very easy for Lee.

"It shows that if you can take a risk, if you really believe in something, take that risk and don't let somebody else say that it's a bad idea. Just go for it, and he did it, and it really paid off," Gelb said.
