Damn Straight, one of the things I love about Jim Lee's art. But your right majority of comics back in the 90's were about Steriod Muscles, and Big boobs. Reference JLA #1 in 96.

" What is your favorite time period of the X-men(Australian, Blue/Gold, O5, All-New, etc) and why?
Personally, my favorite was the Blue/Gold years. It had everyone I consider "core" X-men and some of my favorite writing(Claremont at his peak) and art(Jim Lee).

Me too I love the Blue and Gold years.Shatterstar said:

Your right it is I was like 10 yrs old when I first read the X-men back in 92, and I remember reading the relaunch of X-men #1 that introduced both teams, I liked it because I got to get a different feel with each title. X-men Blue had mostly scrappers on that team so majority of their battles was espionage and slashing battles.
X-men Gold had more of the power heavy hitters like Bishop, Forge, Colossius, Storm, Archangel and Iceman on that team. Both books offered not only heroics but also soap opera drama at times which I absolutely love. Not to mention in those days the titles crossed over much of the time.
Unfortunately I had to stop collecting X-men in 94 due money problems then life happen, and now at age 25 I am now coming back to X-men,
What is the O5 era? I remember New X-men by Grant Morrison, and the Astonishing era we are in now.
