The former manager of comic book co-creator Stan Lee has been charged with elder abuse against the late writer.

Keya Morgan, Stan Lee’s former manager, is facing five counts of abuse against the iconic comic-book writer.

The charges include false imprisonment, fraud and forgery, all of which stem from an incident which took place in summer of 2018.

The incident in question resulted in Lee’s attorney applying for a restraining order against Morgan, following an episode which saw police and a social worker called to Lee’s home in Los Angeles.

According to BBC, an arrest warrant for Mr Morgan – who is yet to comment – has now been issued.

Stan Lee died in November of 2018 at the age of 95.

Lee was also well known for making a cameo appearance in every movie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but was said to have endured faltering eyesight and memory loss towards the end of his life.

He created some of the most iconic movie characters of all time, including Spider-Man, The Incredible Hulk and Iron Man.
