Subject: Which 1990s comic book superhero cartoon is the best?

Written By: TheReignMan99 on 03/25/17 at 7:08 pm

Ooooooh yeah. It's that time. TIME for another DEATH BATTLE!!!!!!!!!

In this thread, share YOUR opinion on the GREATEST COMIC SUPERHERO CARTOON OF THE 1990s.  8)

Choice #1: X-Men (aka X-Men: The Animated Series)

Choice #2: Batman: The Animated Series

Choice #3: Superman: The Animated Series

Choice #4: Spider-Man (aka Spider-Man: The Animated Series)

Choice #5: Todd McFarlane's Spawn

INELIGIBLE choice
Batman Beyond (1999-2001) because it ran from Jan. 1999 until Dec. 2001 thus most of it's run was during the 2000s.

I personally like (actually...LOVE) all of these cartoons but I will have to go with Batman: The Animated Series....it's just so ICONIC.

I only watched Spiderman and Superman, and only a bit of Batman. It's been 20+ years since I watched them so it's hard to say. Spiderman is most memorable to me, though!

Captain Planet  :-X

Now before you stab me with the nearest pitch fork keep in mind that Captain Planet is a superhero with his own comic book.

Hue! All jokes aside I did enjoy Batman TAS the most.

Batman: TAS was great but I don't remember it that much and it was too dark for me as a kid so that's out.

I liked Superman: TAS but once again I didn't watch it as much as other DCAU shows like Justice League/Unlimited or Batman Beyond.

So for me it's between Spider-Man (1994) or X-Men (1992) since most of my memories were through those shows on ABC Family or Jetix.

Spider-Man was my favorite Marvel character growing up but X-Men had the best roster of characters and the most interesting plots. X-Men is the one show I wouldn't give af re-watching on Netflix if I had a chance.

Interesting deduction. X-Men is a great choice. In fact, all of the shows on the list are great choices. I just like Batman slightly better.

Slightly too late in the voting. Over the years, it has always be Superman for me.

I think there was silver surfer and fanastic four and the hulk in the mid to late 90s as well.

To be honest, all the cartoons, comics and pre 2000s movies (starting with batman and ending with X-men 1) are all equally awesome, there was something about the marvel franchise getting darker but just more authentic at that time. It wasn't tainted with endless sequels, bad CGI and oversaturation of merch like in 2000/2010s.

People complain that some of the cartoons were too kiddy or crappily made but they are really solid and high quality in my opinion, as are a lot of the comics from that era even though some are a bit gimmick and hollow.

Batman. Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy and Catwoman were best!
