Stan Lee

I found it interesting to see Stan Lee of marvel Comics driving the bus. This leads me to believe that my assumptions are correct that this could be a prequel to X-Men. All of the elements are there as are the super powers. Also it seems Stan makes and appearance in everything he write or produces. I would love to see X-men on the small screen, however, I think to come right out with it would be a dud. This is a good way to sneak it in to the general public. Will we have crossover heroes such a Thor, Spiderman, Cable? I see the sky being the limit for this show, but how will some of the supervillans be introduced? The ones with never ending superpowers?
