Yeah, he was ill for a while, on top of being quite old. 95. But he led an enviable life that few, if any, could match in terms of influence on both the societal and cultural level. The only one who comes within a stones throw is George Lucas, and he sold out decades ago. But Lee was always ahead of his time by reflecting the times he lived in. Politics is downstream from culture, but culture was downstream from Lee. He was revolutionary in that he was proactive, not reactive.
