That was me before I started reading comics. The overly buldging muscles put me off from picking them up cause I thought that's how they were ALL drawn. The 90's were a horrible period.

It's changed though and completely artist dependent. I've found artists have really moved away from EXTREME 90'S ART and have gotten better at proportions and slimming down heroes.

On DC, Green Lanterns (apart from Guy who is on the stockier side), Flash, and Batfamily characters and a number of second stringers have slimmed down considerably.

And on Marvel's side most X-men (besides snkit-bub), Spidey, Daredevil, Iron Man, and others are noticeably lanky or lack HUEG muscles and have somewhat plausible builds.

It's mostly Superman, Bane, Batman, sometimes Green Arrow, Captain America, Hulk, Thor, and Luke Cage who I mostly see fall into Dorito Build with hulking muscles and that's usually because of their builds and part of who they are.

But yeah, 90's art can be hard to read and it really can depend on the artist. Nowdays for me, its boob socks that are an instant no for me which still happens with disappointing frequency.

Ah yes, the boob socks are unfortunately still very present. Getting better though. I certainly see it less now than in the early 2000s.
