Why are so many comic superheroes manlets or average height?

[CelestialEmpire]

So many superheroes are in the 6'0-6'2 range, which would make them below average in upper class white places like ivy league colleges or wealthy vacation spots (St Tropez/St Moritz/Mallorca/Mykonos/Aspen/Montauk). Captain America literally used super steroids and ended up at a manlet 6'2 JFL. Even Superman, the "pinnacle of alien might" is only 6'4. The actors are even shorter (6'0 Chris Evans and 6'1 Henry Cavill), I'm talking about comic heights which is "idealized" and not constrained by actor's physical heights.

The minimum height IRL to look menacing and intimidating (in high class white rich young settings) is barefoot 6'5 nighttime stadiometer height (AKA 6'6-6'7 for normies), which is enough to be noticeably larger than UFC/Boxing heavyweights as well as NFL/Rugby players and hold your own in a NBA team. Imagine fucking Captain American from the comic books gets transported to a D1 football team and nigga is below average height and weight wise.

Because the average ideal male proportion and what was considered height back in the 1900s when most of them were made was 6’0-2

Nowadays u have these lanklet horsefaced giants but the % of guys who are 6’6 and actually look human and have a frame that passes as human are very very small

Like if I were to be 6’6 I’d want the best genes because as someone that tall ur gonna basically need to take steroids

The muscle mass that will make a 5’7-10 manlet look like a literal competing bodybuilder will make u look like an athletic dude who sometimes goes to the gym

Guys who are that tall and not absolute twinks are rare asf I never saw one here in Germany and there are plenty of 6’6 dudes

Ideal height for normal genetics is 6’1-2 if u wanna have a descent body without popping animal needles that will age u 10 years in 1

And that’s not even to mention the 90% chance of a horse face

7'6?

7'6?

would look like an uncanny freak, he should be tall enough that almost no normal healthy human without gigantism/acromegaly can heightmog him. say 6'10 range.
