Dia memasuki industri ini pada tahun 1987 sebagai seniman untuk Marvel Comics, mengilustrasikan judul-judul seperti Alpha Flight dan The Punisher War Journal, sebelum mendapatkan popularitas di The Uncanny X-Men . Dalam buku tersebut, Lee bekerja dengan penulis Chris Claremont, yang dengannya dia ikut menciptakan karakter Gambit . Hal ini menghasilkan seri spin-off tahun 1991 di mana Lee dan Claremont menjadi tim kreatif awal. Edisi debutnya, X-Men #1, yang ditulis oleh Lee dan ditulis bersama Claremont, tetap menjadi buku komik terlaris sepanjang masa, menurut Guinness World Records . Gaya Lee kemudian digunakan untuk desain X-Men: The Animated Series.

Pada tahun 1992, Lee dan beberapa artis lainnya membentuk perusahaan penerbitan mereka sendiri, Image Comics, untuk menerbitkan judul milik pencipta mereka, dengan judul penerbitan Lee seperti WildC. ATs dan Gen¹³ melalui studionya WildStorm Productions .

Menyadari bahwa peran penerbit mengurangi jumlah waktu yang dapat dia curahkan untuk ilustrasi, Lee menjual WildStorm pada tahun 1998 ke DC Comics, di mana dia terus menjalankannya sebagai cetakan DC hingga tahun 2010, serta mengilustrasikan judul-judul sukses yang dibuat di DC. alam semesta fiksi utama, seperti alur cerita " Batman: Hush " dan " Superman: For Tomorrow " sepanjang tahun, dan buku-buku termasuk Superman Unchained dan seri Justice League yang baru ke-52 . Pada tanggal 18 Februari 2010, Lee diumumkan sebagai Co-Publisher baru DC Comics bersama Dan DiDio, keduanya menggantikan Paul Levitz . Setelah kepergian DiDio dari perusahaan pada Februari 2020, Lee menjadi satu-satunya Penerbit DC Comics. Sejak Juni 2018, ia juga menjadi Chief Creative Officer (CCO) DC Comics menggantikan Geoff Johns.

Selain mengilustrasikan komik, ia juga pernah bekerja sebagai desainer atau direktur kreatif pada produk DC lainnya, seperti action figure, video game, mobil bermerek, dan ransel. Di luar industri komik, Lee juga mendesain sampul album, dan salah satu sereal bertema monster General Mills untuk edisi Halloween 2014.
