What is up with Dc's weight system?

Seriously the weights for characters in the DCU are insane.

Superman is only two hundred and thirty five pounds! according to the dc wiki while batman is two hundred and ten,

That means that somehow they both weigh less then Captain America whose listed as two hundred and forty.

The most insane though is Wally West.

Look at him.

That dude is a solid brick of muscle and he's only listed at 190 lbs. I understand you want to say the Flash is quick and light but there is no way the guy in the panel above me is under two hundred pounds. That's Ridiculous.

Yea, many of the human-esque males should weigh more given how big they are drawn (on average). Superman especially, since Kryptonians supposedly have a denser cellular make-up

Artistic license

Except Aquaman, who is much denser than his proportions appear and weighs near 400 lbs, and Wonder Woman, who should definitely weigh more than 120 according to her height and build.

The Wedge!
