I like the pose. I think it's refreshing, tells a story, it's museum without being cliche museum. But yea, I'm really distracted by the muscles. While this is more comic book (which I like), it's almost the cliche 90s where EVERYBODY was jacked comic book.
It's like Bel did an anatomically correct Rob Liefeld inspired statue with feet.

Depends on who’s Batman it is
Batman is weird anyway because with his physical feats he’d have to be super jacked but he’d also have to be light enough to do what he does. But as Bruce Wayne he can’t seem too big. He’s just about impossible.
But we have a perception…there’s what comics present, and reality. We know comic book bodies are exaggerated and stylized, but it seems like for larger scale statues most of us, when it comes to the “normal” sized human bodies (so Green Lantern, Flash, Batman as opposed to Bane, Sabretooth), prefer a balance of realistic proportions with some slight comic book exaggeration, but not too much exaggeration.
This Green Lantern for many seems to cross the line into “too much” exaggeration. But, it looks straight out of a comic book, which the character is. If that was the goal, its been accomplished. Because the muscles are certainly in line with some comic art.
I’m getting the Michael Turner vibes though
But overall I agree, this one should’ve been reigned in a bit.
