1. The Dark Knight
2. Dredd
3. The Avengers
4.Hellboy
5. Superman 2 (Richard Donner Cut)
6. Hellboy 2: The Golden Army
7. Batman Begins
8. Spider-Man 2
9. Watchmen
10. The Crow

Oh you mother effers, making lists stresses me out lol. Let's see, at the moment this is my top 10 ...
1. The Dark Knight
2. The Avengers
3. Watchmen
4. Dredd
5. Superman II
6. Iron Man
7. Spider Man 2
8. The Dark Knight Rises
9. Hellboy
10. The Crow
Very glad to see Dredd pretty high, Fernando. Really shows what a great year 2012 was for the comic book genre, with the DKR (which almost made my top 10), Avengers and Dredd appearing in the same year.

4. Hellboy
5. X-Men: First Class
6. Captain America

Admittedly, I usually stick to Marvel comic releases...
But if you call it comic book movies, then you have to also consider things like V For Vendetta. Making it no easier after all!
Well, I haven't seen V for Vendetta, which is most probably why it isn't in the list.

Watchmen is a tough watch fore me.
All I know is that Kick-Ass would be in my top 10. They aren't real superheroes, but it is based on a graphic novel.

There's actually an entire sub-genre of aren't-real-superheroes including such other films as Hero at Large, Blankman, Mystery Men, The Specials, and Defendor.
Plus M.Night Shyamalan's Unbreakable and such oddities as Chronicle and Hancock.

There's one hole in every revolution, large or small. And it's one word long.. people. No matter how big the idea they all stand under, people are small and weak and cheap and frightened. It's people that kill every revolution.
Tried reading the graphic novel. Just couldn't get into it, I'm afraid. It's rather put me off the film as a result.

From Hell, Cowboys & Aliens, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, Ghost World, American Splendor, A History of Violence, 300, Sin City, etc.
Oh, how the hell did I forget about Scott Pilgrim? Or of course A History of Violence and Sin City? Hmm, I may need to think over my list now.

No, no... I'm just showing why I said "super-hero movies" to begin with. Because I knew I'd have to think mine over more this other way. Although you were correct that the definition of "super-hero" might be slipperier, anyway. Damned if you do and damned if you don't, you know?
But at least I am pretty satisfied with that list of my favorite comic book super-hero movies!
yeah, as Super Hero movies are concerned, I don't count Scott Pilgrim. Otherwise it'd be way high up on the list. Comic book movies are an entirely different thing
The Road to Perdition is also a graphic novel. I didn't realize that until after I watched the film and purchased the DVD.From Hell, Cowboys & Aliens, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, Ghost World, American Splendor, A History of Violence, 300, Sin City, etc.
