Final Jeopardy Explanation – Monday, January 29 2024

Stan Lee, the iconic comic book writer and creator of numerous superheroes, referred to the title character of “The Scarlet Pimpernel” as the first superhero he ever read about. “The Scarlet Pimpernel,” a novel set during the French Revolution, was written by Baroness Emma Orczy and first published in 1905.

The story revolves around Sir Percy Blakeney, a wealthy English aristocrat who leads a double life as “The Scarlet Pimpernel,” a daring and elusive figure who rescues individuals destined for the guillotine in revolutionary France. The character’s use of disguises, a secret identity, and his commitment to a noble cause, along with the book’s adventurous and suspenseful plot, evidently left a lasting impression on Stan Lee and influenced his later creations in the realm of comic book superheroes.
