Elliott Lemire competes in Stan Lee’s Super Kid contest

Elliott Lemire, a Grade 1 student at École John Stubbs Memorial School in Colwood, British Columbia, is competing in Stan Lee’s Super Kid, a North American contest. The competition, organized by Colossal and DTCare in partnership with the Stan Lee Foundation, offers participants the chance to appear in a comic book, attend Los Angeles Comic-Con, and win a US$25,000 grand prize.

Lemire, who is on the autism spectrum, aims to use the platform to demonstrate that children with autism can achieve great things. His mother, Kristi Lemire, an autism advocate, noted that the experience allows him to pursue his interests while promoting messages of acceptance. The contest also serves as a fundraising campaign to support the Stan Lee Foundation’s initiatives in early literacy and the narrative arts.
