Comic Book / Superhero Films: US Domestic Ranking (Top 150)

In 1978, Warner Bros. released Superman which sparked the current superhero genre in film. This listing only includes theatrical releases ('78-present) and not straight-to-video ventures (1992's Captain America), cartoon character movies, or "MOTW." Just because such productions aren't included in this listing, doesn't mean they're not worthy of recognition.

From the early radio serials of The Shadow and Flash Gordon "shorts" to the 50s & 60s television shows featuring Superman and Batman. From the Incredible Hulk and Wonder Woman TV series' of the 70s to present contributions such as Roger Corman's shelved Fantastic Four film and Spider-Man "fan" production, The Green Goblin's Last Stand.

It is because of these past productions that we have this growing and vibrant genre of superhero films today. They should be praised and remembered for their contributions to the genre.
