After 8-year-old Jamel Hunter was featured in a New York Times article last year, he received a very special gift.
The young boy has autism and usually dislikes parties because of the noise. The Times chronicled how Atwood, who is disabled, had worked hard this year to throw him a party he would enjoy.
She chose a Spider-Man theme because Jamel loves the character.
"I was happy at my birthday party," Jamel said.
She was touched by the story, and asked Lee if he could do something special for Jamel.
"This was a unique experience," Lee told the Times. "Corky called me and said there was a little boy. ... She wanted a sketch, so I did one."
Lee is not the illustrator of Spider-Man but was able to do a sketch of the character saying "Hi, Jamel!"
