I had forgotten about comic stuff. But I think the 90s did see a low point for comics. There was COOL STUFF though - alternate covers that were shiny, holographic, variant artwork, gatefolds etc. More gimmicks, less story. (Some would say we are seeing a return of that in various circles, but I think current writing is pretty damn good).
