Panel Use Efficiency In Comics, Do Today's Comics Have Less Efficiency or Use?

[CarlManvers2019]

I was reading Marvel Masterworks and right now the earlier 1970s What If? Marvel-Works, and just noticed, they seem to do paneling and quicker yet simple story telling better than even the mini-series I'm used to seeing for modern comic books today or at the very least 2000-2010 ones, well except for European comics....so much told in a mere 50 pages there

Is it something anybody else here notices? Or have I not read enough 2000-2010 or 20th Century comics to properly generalise or see if a pattern is present or not

I don't read comics but I sometimes watch people talk about them because I have nothing better to do in that moment.

Recently I watched a three parter by a Youtuber called Literature Devil where he went over this sort of thing specifically in reference to Comicsgate. The series is called "Is Comicsgate wrong?"

EDIT: Part 1

This is more about the efficiency of panel and progression and maximization of plot in like 20-40-60 pages than SJWism, that should be for another thread, no offense
