        And Picard is nine feet tall. I guess that’s why he’s in charge.

        They’ll probably come up with a way in the future to make you super muscular and lean without putting any hard work into it. Just consult your doctor if Muscolesta is right for you and live a moderately active lifestyle.

          There’s already a genetic mutation that does that.

          Myostatin-related muscle hypertrophy is not known to cause any medical problems, and affected individuals are intellectually normal.

          And it makes you look like this:

          That’s a house-cat, and it looks like that without having to lift weights. Some people have this mutation too, and it’s particularly dramatic in children who would otherwise never be that muscular. (I’d post pictures but I’m not sure about the ethics of sharing photos of other people’s swole toddlers even when they’re already available online.)

          A guy at the gym has some shots to sell you now.

          If you don’t mind changing into a raging asshole, horrible acne, having your balls shrivel.

        Pretty sure this was all drawn by Pablo Marcos, who was a superhero artist that worked for both DC and Marvel at different points. Figures he probably really only had consistent way of drawing people seeing that he was mainly a superhero artist.

          This is a comic from between 1990 and 1994, the height of the ultra ripped Liefeld era of comics for sure. If I’m correct that the artist was Pablo Marcos, he’d been working for years as a comic artist but he seemed to basically just stick to hyper muscular anatomy for everything he’d been doing since the 70s.
