In 1998, Blade came out, and the film was one of the first legitimately good comic books movies in a very long time–even if parts of it feel like dated rave scenes. After that, we saw Spider-Man, X-Men, and so many more. It was the cusp of the golden age of superhero movies. However, in order to get there, a lot of stinkers had to be released.
During the ’90s, film studios were buying the rights to comic books left and right, and while these films were trying to find their footing, a lot of bad ones got released. Even if studios tried to utilize big name stars to push out a superhero flick, it didn’t matter unless the story was good. Unfortunately, at this point in time, comic book movies hadn’t found their footing just yet.
So going through the history of cinema, we present to you the 11 worst comic book movies of the 1990s. Sure, they may be a lot of fun to watch now, but none of these movies are really considered to be great by anyone. So sit back, relax, and check out some of the worst Hollywood had to offer before the MCU became a thing.
Check them all out below, in no particular order. Ok, that’s a lie. It’s alphabetical order.
