Most recently, Gunn has become the first major MCU director to make the jump to the DCEU, with his upcoming movie The Suicide Squad.
With his latest post honoring Lee, Gunn has proven again that his work at DC has had no impact on his affection for the MCU, and Marvel Comics in general.
After gaining acclaim for his Marvel debut movie Guardians of the Galaxy, Gunn was removed from the directorial position for the sequel due to some objectionable Tweets that the filmmaker had made decades ago.
The fan backlash was so intense thatJames Gunn was brought back into the MCU, and went on to make Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 2.
