Most recent hits and almost forgotten classics.

Stories about people and other creatures with unusual abilities have been featured in movies and TV shows for many years. But it is animation that has become the most successful format for bringing extraordinary characters to the big and small screens.

A new project has recently been released – Batman: Caped Crusader. If you have already seen it, we have chosen the best TV series about superheroes so that you have something to choose from to watch next.

1. Hulk and the Agents of S.M.A.S.H., 2013-2015

The series focuses on the Hulk himself, his cousin She-Hulk, Skaar (Hulk's son), Red Hulk, and A-Bomb. The S.M.A.S.H. team unites to confront those antagonists that ordinary superheroes cannot.

An unusual element of this animated series is a movie within a movie. In each episode, the team is filmed by Rick Jones (aka A-Bomb): he wants to use his reality show to prove to the world that the Hulk is first and foremost a hero and protector, not a soulless and wild monster dangerous to others.

2. Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox, 2013

Barry Allen cannot come to terms with his mother's death. He decides to go back in time and save her. But in doing so, Barry finds himself in a parallel universe.

In this new world, the Justice League doesn't exist, and Batman and Cyborg have never met Barry. The desperate superhero tries to fix what he's done, but he's completely lost his powers.

Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox is one of the best animations in the DC animated universe, which has already become a classic. The plot is based on the Flashpoint crossover comic book series. It featured the biggest events in the entire comic book universe – from the clash between the Amazons and the Atlanteans to the death of Bruce Wayne.

3. X-Men '97, 2024-...

Professor Xavier is dead. At least that's what the X-Men team thinks. Scott Summers is the new leader, and in addition to this, Cyclops is also a young father – Jean Grey is about to give birth. Not surprisingly, his wife suggests that they both leave the team and start a family away from the school for gifted mutants.

In an already tense atmosphere, a new trigger appears – Magneto, to whom Xavier, it turns out, has handed over the reins of the school and the position of leader of the X-Men.

The original X-Men aired from 1992 to 1997. It ran for five seasons and achieved cult status. The new X-Men '97 continues the story of the '90s series, exploring the world of humans and mutants, sometimes seeking opportunities for peaceful coexistence, sometimes going to war against each other.

4. The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes, 2010

Four superhuman prisons are struck by an unknown force, causing dozens of villains to escape. The Avengers are called: Earth's greatest heroes must put evil back behind bars.

Iron Man, Hulk, Thor, Ant-Man and the Wasp team up to protect humanity and discover the source of the mysterious force that has unleashed the prisoners.

The series perfectly blends the different eras of Marvel comics; it's hard to say if it adapts any particular comic book arc to the screen. Of the canonical Avengers villains, Doctor Doom, Ronan the Accuser, and Arnim Zola appear in the series.
