Media company Kartoon Studios<\/strong> (formerly, Genius Brands<\/strong>) announced a “complete and near-instantaneous” sale of over 8,000 Stan Lee digital collectibles for $120,000 in revenue.<\/p>\n

On July 24, the company said that it, through its partnership with the VeVe<\/strong> marketplace, saw these collectibles flying off the shelves.<\/p>\n

Stan Lee, working alsongise Marvel<\/strong> writers\/artists, especially Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko, produced some of the globally most popular characters. Some of his brain children include the Hulk, Iron Man, Spider-Man, Thor, the X-Men, and Black Panther, and many others.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The ‘Celebrating Stan Lee’ collection features four digital collectibles created in Chibi style – a popular caricature style originating in Japan and commonly seen in anime and manga.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The collection includes: The Amazing Stan Lee (2,922 editions, rarity uncommon), The King of Cameos (Lee was well-known for his cameo appearances; 2,400 editions, rare), Excelsior! (his famous comic book sign-off; 1,922 editions, ultra rare), and \u2018Nuff Said! (one of his signature expressions; 1,050 editions, secret rare).<\/p>\n

Price Soars At Least 240%<\/h2>\n

According to VeVe, 8,294 NFTs were available for sale, each with the list price of $15 – meaning that the drop netted $120,000 in revenue.<\/p>\n

By Monday, they had risen by least 500%, Bloomberg reported, with the cheapest collectible selling for $81 and the most expensive for $749.<\/p>\n

On Tuesday morning (CET), per VeVe Setlist, the cheapest one available for sale, The King of Chameos, was up by 240% to $51 (down 9% in a day), while the priciest one, \u2018Nuff Said!, jumped nearly 5,000% to $755.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Excelsior! was $98 (down 10% in 24 hours) and The Amazing Stan was selling for just below $84.<\/p>\n

\u200dVeVe said that a 2.5% secondary market fee would be added to all sales.<\/p>\n

Lloyd Mintz, Senior Vice President, Global Consumer Products at Kartoon Studios said that,<\/p>\n

“That there was a complete sell through, and the fact that it was nearly instantaneous is a very strong indicator of the extraordinary passion that fans have for Stan Lee, and where we see the future of the Stan Lee brand.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

David Yu, CEO of VeVe Digital Collectibles, described the sale as “an important turning point in the digital collectibles market.”<\/p>\n

Kartoon Studios, together with POW! Entertainment<\/strong>, owns the global rights to Stan Lee’s name, physical likeness, voice, signature, etc.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It is currently engaged in Stan Lee Centennial campaign, which celebrates his 100th birthday and is the first phase of “a much broader” Stan Lee Universe program.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, this was not the first time the sale of Stan Lee-related NFTs had been swiftly finished: in December 2021, the first drop of the Chakraverse NFT collection, based on superhero \u2018Chakra The Invincible,\u2019 sold out in 51 seconds. A day later, the second batch sold out in 49 seconds.<\/p>\n
