Iron Man
Many experts claim that if you have never watched comic book movies, it is worth starting with Iron Man for various reasons.

Captain America: The First Avenger
People’s opinions have been divided into several categories evaluating the movie.

Well, it seems you should watch it yourself to decide who is right.

Well, Captain America is an iconic and crucial character out there, so you should get to know him better if you have decided to immerse yourself into the world of comic books movies.
Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse
You can come across a wide range of versions of this movie, so it’s up to you to decide which part is worth your attention. However, if you want to watch a film as close to a comic book as possible with its atmosphere, you should try this one. You will get familiar with a story of an ordinary teenager from Brooklyn who has recently switched schools and tries to adjust to new circumstances. Everything will change after a bite of a radioactive spider he has come across on a former subway station. Thus, a young man will have to meet one of the biggest challenges in his life: attend a school and protect the universe along with five other spider-powered superheroes.

Avengers: Endgame
If you have arranged a comic book movie marathon and got familiar with most characters, you can proceed to watch one of the most stunning parts of all time.

So, if you are ready for the final epic showdown, it’s time to make popcorn and get ready to enjoy the endgame.

The Dark Knight Rises
Each movie from Christopher Nolan’s trilogy about the Dark Knight is worth attention, so if you have enough time, you can devote your evening to this story.

This story happens eight years after Batman’s fight with the Joker, and unlike previous films, it shows events that may happen in any megapolis. The movie seems especially relevant considering the events of the last two years connected with the global pandemic. This film represents a wonderful ending to the trilogy, so it’s not surprising its IMDb rating, 8.4, doesn’t give in to other comic book movies mentioned on the list.
