Stan Lee wrote on his X (earlier Twitter) that:
“Never give up on your dreams! When I first wrote Spider-Man my publisher said I was crazy because people hate spiders and insects and he was not going to publish it. But I never gave up, until it was published.”

But he is STAN LEE! it’s not that easy to crush his vision especially when it’s about a superhero. The renowned writer then wrote in his X:
“I think @TomHolland1996 is a great Spider-Man. He is the exact height and age I envisioned when I first wrote Spider-Man. Spidey was never supposed to be too large. How is my friend Tom doing?”
