Best songs from a movie based on a Comic Book

[Doc McCoy]

I'm thinking of putting together a few CDs for friends this year (and commission an artist to do their favorite character for the cover art) and thought I'd build the track list around songs from comic book films. Of course everyone knows a song like Batdance or the John Williams Superman Theme, but what are some of your favorite tunes from comic movie soundtracks?

Danny Elfman - Batman

 

HANDS DOWN!!!

Scott Pilgrim vs. The World if you like bassy punk rock.

"Garbage Truck", "Black Sheep", "Threshold"

 

The movie version of Black Sheep (By The Clash at Demonhead/Brie Larson) is better than the Metric that is on the soundtrack. But the original is still a good song.

 

"We're Sex Bob-omb! And we're here to watch Scott Pilgrim kick your teeth in!!! Onetwothreefour!!!"

You have a lot of AC/DC to choose from in Iron Man.

Batman 1989- Batdance by Prince

I have a nice version of "Bring Me To Life" by the wonderful Amy Lee without the goofy rap guy in it. I enjoy that version MUCH more.

Back to the Future, Brother Where Art Thou?, and Star Wars are comic book movies??

I started a similiar thread a few years ago on this topic.

Take a look at it for other ideas too.

Good luck.

Redbone 'Come and get your love" from GOTG

 

Actually, that whole soundtrack is solid.

Many comic book movies have a soundtrack with just one or two decent tracks. The Crow is outstanding all around. Really affects the film.

One of many from that soundtrack!

The whole Daredevil movie soundtrack is awesome. Definitely one of the best ever along with "The Crow."

For instrumental only, I enjoyed "A Dark Knight" by Hans Zimmer, the main theme from the Nolan Batman films. Great background music while working or doing chores.
