A comic book legend will be on hand for Friday night's hockey game in Glendale.

Stan Lee, the co-creator of Spider-Man, X-Men, The Hulk and numerous other comic books, will be part of the ceremonial puck drop before the Arizona Coyotes' game vs. the visiting Edmonton Oilers at Gila River Arena at 7 p.m. Friday.

In addition, the first 10,000 fans at Friday's game will receive an Oliver Ekman-Larsson bobblehead.
