Here are a handful that I could recommend:
Young Zaphod Plays it Safe - Douglas Adams
Bicentennial Man - Isaac Asimov
Satisfaction Guaranteed - Isaac Asimov
Insert Knob A In Hole B - Isaac Asimov
I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream - Harlan Ellison
"Repent, Harlequin!" Said the Ticktockman - Harlan Ellison
Soldier - Harlan Ellison
We Can Remember It For You Wholesale - Phillip K Dick
The Minority Report - Phillip K Dick
Unfortunately, there isn't really any short fiction work by Stan Lee or Gene Roddenberry outside of their respective claims to fame. Lee's work is mostly in the realm of comic books (aside from some TV shows and novels that were largely written or ghostwritten by other parties) and Roddenberry's writing was almost exclusively for TV (and, pre-Star Trek, was mostly in the area of crime dramas and westerns).

'A Sound of Thunder' - Ray Bradbury.
It's basically all about the butterfly effect. Great story.
