Lee's distinctive, crisply hatched line art style and rigid, idealized anatomical forms established a new stylistic standard for superhero comic-book illustration and reinforced a popular trend away from brushed to penned inking in the late 20th and early 21st century. Lee is currently one of the most successful artists in American comics.

He has received a great deal of recognition for his work in the industry, including the Harvey Special Award

Quotes by Jim Lee  (?)

“The fatal problem for the media, the official media, is that it is now in direct competition with social media, the unofficial media. All of the opinions that had been so carefully suppressed by the mainstream have suddenly got an airing and have proved widely popular because the people have been starved of them so long. They always wanted this kind of material, but the media deliberately prevented them from getting it. The West is now having its own Samizdat Moment, and loving it.”
Jim Lee, In (Unlikely) Praise of Donald Trump: Embracing America’s Shadow

“Mutants, super beings, gods, aliens, a guy who sticks to walls at one extreme, a creature who eats planets at the other; Each one that comes into being, they feel, diminishes the rest of humanity, ordinary homo sapiens, that little bit more.”
Jim Lee, X-Men: Mutant Genesis

“One of the reasons why the old media is dying so rapidly is that it has got so out of touch with what the people are actually interested in and what the people actually think and believe. Social media has filled the vacuum, so there's no further need for the mainstream media.”
Jim Lee, In (Unlikely) Praise of Donald Trump: Embracing America’s Shadow
