The 10 Best Comic Book Movie Moments Of 2017

As explained in our recent ranking of 2017's superhero movies, this year was one of the finest ever for comic book cinematic entertainment. All three major franchises - the MCU, DCEU and Fox's X-Men universe - produced some of the best entries in the field that, arguably, we've ever seen.

Superman Returns – Justice League

Recommended Videos

We all know that Justice League wasn’t all it could have been. Despite a rushed final edit from a studio allegedly putting its yearly bonuses above the quality of the final product, though, the film has glimmers of greatness and a load of grin-inducing scenes which are fanboy/girl dreams come to life. One such moment is Superman’s return to save the day in the final fight against Steppenwolf.

While some love the more muted take on the Man of Steel in previous movies, Justice League restored Kal-El’s brightness and optimism in a big way. Sure, the way he strolls into the climax and completely owns Steppenwolf basically single-handedly makes him a bit of a deus ex machina, but it also acts as a triumphant comeback for the hero. And, yeah, the whole “I believe in truth, but I’m also a big fan of justice” line is cheesy, but it 100% sounds like something that could have featured in a classic Superman comic.

Henry Cavill clearly has a ball bringing out his inner Christopher Reeve, leaving you feeling like Supes has finally arrived in the DCEU. Even despite his weird upper lip.
