The Real Time host responded to the backlash over his "Adulting" blog post that criticized Lee's legacy following his death. "I am agnostic on Stan Lee. I don’t read comic books,” Maher said in an interview with Larry King. “I didn’t even read them when I was a child. What I was saying is, a culture that thinks that comic books and comic book movies are profound meditations on the human condition is a dumb f*cking culture. And for people to get mad at that just proves my point.” Maher added: "I’m so glad that I don’t follow social media like that, every stupid thing that people lose their shit about. But talk about making my point for me.”
