Legendary comics creator and master of the Marvel cameo, Stan Lee passed away on Monday, his family attorney confirmed to ABC News.

His death at the age of 95 sent shock waves through the publishing and movie world, with Lee creating so many of the famed characters that you see today on the big screen in films like "Avengers" and "Black Panther."

Disney, who acquired Marvel almost a decade ago, released a statement from CEO Bob Iger that read, "Stan Lee was as extraordinary as the characters he created. A super hero in his own right to Marvel fans around the world, Stan had the power to inspire, to entertain, and to connect. The scale of his imagination was only exceeded by the size of his heart."

Captain America himself, Chris Evans wrote, "There will never be another Stan Lee. For decades he provided both young and old with adventure, escape, comfort, confidence, inspiration, strength, friendship and joy. He exuded love and kindness and will leave an indelible mark on so, so, so many lives. Excelsior!!"

Robert Downey Jr., the man who helped get Marvel movies on the map, added, "I owe it all to you,,, Rest In Peace Stan."

Tom Holland wrote, "How many millions of us are indebted to this guy, none more so than me. The father of Marvel has made so many people so incredibly happy."

Hugh Jackman, who played Wolverine for years, wrote, "We've lost a creative genius. Stan Lee was a pioneering force in the superhero universe. I'm proud to have been a small part of his legacy and .... to have helped bring one of his characters to life. #StanLee #Wolverine."

Ryan Reynolds added, "Thanks for everything."

Funnyman Seth Rogen added, "Thank you Stan Lee for making people who feel different realize they are special."
