The 95-year-old Lee, who is best known for co-creating some of the iconic superheroes characters such as Spider-Man, the Hulk, Iron Man and the X-Men, shared the news through an emotional video, reported TMZ.
"Hiya heroes, this is Stan Lee. I haven't been in touch with you lately. I had a little bout of pneumonia I've been fighting, but it seems to be getting better," Lee said.
"I want you all to know I'm thinking of you, of course I always think of the fans, and I hope you're all doing well, and I miss you all. I miss your enthusiasm, I miss all your notes, all your photos and emails and I want you to know that I still love you all," he added.
