Who was Stan Lee’s first superhero?

Stan Lee was a comic book writer, editor, publisher, and producer from the United States.

Stan Lee’s first superhero was Destroyer, which was created in 1941 with the help of Jack Binder.

Captain America, a comic-book superhero created by writer Joe Simon and artist Jack Kirby, was similar in appearance to the character.

The Destroyer made his debut in 1941’s Mystic Comics #6. While imprisoned in a concentration camp  Marlow is given a super-soldier serum, similar to that given to Captain America, by fellow prisoner Professor Eric Schmitt, an anti-Nazi German scientist.

Marlow, reacting to the chemical and lacking the beneficial “Vita-Rays” used to chemically stabilise Captain America’s serum, becomes a prime human specimen who escapes.

He dons a sleek, dark costume with a skull motif and a skintight blue mask that made him appear inhuman, and adopts a fearsome identity with which he fights the Nazis on their own turf.

While less popular than the company’s Captain America, the Destroyer went on to star in issues of nearly every Timely superhero comic-book series, becoming the company’s most-published character outside of those three stars and the Angel.

The Destroyer distinguished himself from other wartime heroes by operating solely within occupied Europe.
