Would it be a total mess?
Drawing from the Dominator plotline from theInvasion!
comic book story arc, the four-way (OK, really three-way) crossover was a classic superhero team-up.
Were already counting down to the next DC TV crossover.
Supergirlgave us whatBatman v. Supermancouldnt: a Superman who was also a total nerd.
Clark didnt take away from Karas characterization or heroism.

As any El worth their salt knows, we are stronger together.
Runner up moments: Barry visits Kara in National City in The Worlds Finest.
Alexs coming out story arc proof that heroism takes many different forms.

(I could make a strong argument forSupergirl, but will concede thatThe Flashhas an impressive head start.)
Thus far, its three-season run has been characterized by a plot-churning pace unlike any other show on TV.
When this works, this show is like comic book adaptation crack.

From Killer Frost to jazz singer Joe West (R.I.P.)
Comic book TV at its best.

Our Caitlin begins to manifest Killer Frost-esque powers.
Arrow The 100th Episode
There arent many people who would argue thatArrowis in its prime.
The superhero TV show that started an entire CW fictional universe has seen better narrative days.

Yes, this is a bittersweet superhero moment to highlight.
And perhaps I could have chosen one ofArrows superior Season 5 fight scenes.
The current season ofArrowhas been infinitely better than the previous two.

This list would be a lot shorter without it.
Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Most people are still trying to wash the taste of the feature film out of their mouth.

(Sorrynotsorry,Arrow.)
What has worked about Ghost Rider?
Runner up moments:S.H.I.E.L.D.

The Raid-like fight sequence took three days to shoot, but the result was worth it.
Vigilante-ism has never felt as raw, visceral, or brutal as in this four-minute fight scene.
Without any newJessica Jonesin 2016 and withAgent Cartercanceled, the year was not a great one for female superhero-types.
Now if only the rest of the superhero media universe would take note.
One of those moments?
The cast ofGothambrings a gravitas to a show that arguably doesnt deserve it.
Nowhere is that clearer than in David Mazouzs performance as a young Bruce Wayne.
you’re gonna wanna kill me, Matches tells a steely-eyed Bruce.
Runner up moment:Penguin and Riddler almost have a romance.
Method Man even showed up to make it clear to viewers.
Turner is perfect as a young Jean Grey.
She is standoffish, but likable.
A regular teenage girl, though one made guarded by her at-times uncontrollable powers.
And she does, literally melting a god by embracing her Phoenix powers.
Runner up moment:The Quicksilver montage.
