White Castle, the popular fast food chain, has added comic legend and Marvel character creator Stan Lee into the White Castle Cravers Hall of Fame. Lee has been a fan of the fast food joint since he was a kid in New York. He joins rock star Alice Cooper and Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle stars John Cho and Kal Penn in the club.

“Stan is the ingenious creator of Spider-Man, the Incredible Hulk, X-Men, and so many others – he has the incomparable power to create legendary superheroes that are favorites in homes around the world!” said Jamie Richardson, Vice President of White Castle. “It turns out, while we grew up on his comics, he grew up on our sliders. The Cravers Hall of Fame was founded to celebrate a shared love of White Castle, and, now Stan Lee will forever be celebrated among the elite Cravers!”

In a special ceremony, he was honored with a custom plaque and gifts that included a framed photograph of the first White Castle Lee went to as a child, an ID badge that gives him access to the employee cafeteria in Columbus, OH, and one Crave Case per month for as long as he wants.

“Growing up in Washington Heights and the Bronx, I loved White Castle. The infamous slider was a favorite then, just as it remains today over 85 years later!” said Lee. “I am grateful to White Castle for recognizing my lifelong Crave-ings and honored to join past and future Craver Hall of Fame inductees. And to be perfectly honest, I’m also looking forward to receiving my Crave Case each month from White Castle!”
