That literally means nothing, as for what you said. Ross is an incredible artist who paints, draws, and stylized superheroes to look realistic in their respective eras. The fact that Marvels looks as good as it does and doesn't change a single thing regarding the original designs says a lot about the work of Ross. And "superficial"? Get real. It's comic art, but a different type of comic art. They can't all be Ditkos and Frenz's.
