Stan Lee
Obviously, any jokes made about the nerdiness of comic books comes from a place of love, because Stan Lee is the freaking man. This should essentially go without saying, given that he created or co-created Spider-Man, the Hulk, the X-Men, the Fantastic Four, Iron Man, Thor, the Avengers and a crapload of other hundred-million dollar franchises, so he really doesn't need your approval or mine. But I once tried to paint a giant mural of Spider-Man on my bedroom wall (my mom stopped me, so it just ended up as a giant red streak of paint), so it's safe to say he has my approval.
