It's all in the eye of the beholder, of course, but when one of the most respected magazines in the world writes top lists, many people sit up and listen. Rolling Stone Magazine has now named what they consider to be the best superhero movie of all time, and from a huge list of 50 titles, Black Panther finally took the win.
Surprising? Well, that depends on who you ask. Chadwick Boseman's interpretation of the Black Panther was widely acclaimed when the film was released just under five years ago. Some of you may also recall that Black Panther was also nominated for several Oscars, including Best Picture, an award that ultimately went to Green Book. You can read the complete list below and there are some interesting and surprising finds to be made.
