Men in Black – Will Smith from Men in Black
Sure, it's not a "superhero" movie, which may skew the list a little. But a comic book movie is a comic book movie and Men In Black from the movie of the same title might just be the most well-known song on this list. Sampling "Forget Me Nots" from 1984, Smith released his first solo song (bye bye Jazzy Jeff) along with his blockbuster film with Tommy Lee Jones. The song won a Grammy and was burned into everyone's minds for weeks and months following the release of both the movie and the song. And here I think we've unveiled a bit of secret sauce. Just like “Hero” and “Kiss from a Rose”, “Men in Black” played in the movie's credits. Perhaps this is the spot for solid gold comic book movie songs.
