But just look at the run that Spidey has been on for the last 7 years - Every since his introduction into the MCU.

2016 - Civil War.
2017 - Homecoming.
2018 - Infinity War, Spider-Man (PS4), Into the Spider-Verse.
2019 - Endgame, Far From Home.
2020 - Spider-Man: Miles Morales.
2021 - No Way Home.
2022 - N/A (I'm drawing a blank. If there was something this year, I missed it.)
2023 - Across the Spider-Verse, Spider-Man 2 (PS5).
2024 - Beyond the Spider-Verse.

And that's not counting the Venom stuff.

Just... Home Run after Home Run. So many Home Runs it would make Barry Bonds jealous!!!

Has any other superhero had the run Spidey has had these last 7, soon to be 8, years? Has Batman or Superman ever had a run like this?!

I don't want to start a flame war by saying this: But I'm reaching the point where I just might have Spider-Man as the #1 superhero, period. For the longest time, the Big 3 has always been Superman, Batman, and Spider-Man. And for a good chunk of that time, Spidey was seen as the #3 behind DC's dynamic duo. Something almost everyone in the 20th century accepted. Then, we go into the 21st century, Spider-Man and Batman both take off into higher levels across all these different ventures: Movies, video games, TV shows, etc. They overtook Superman and really haven't looked back for the most part. (Poor Superman, I love that Big Blue Boyscout, it's been so long since he's really had something like on the level of what Batman and Spider-Man get on a regular basis.)
And all throughout the 2000s and 2010s, Batman and Spider-Man have basically been neck-and-neck going back and forth. But recently? With this unbelievable run Spider-Man has been on w/ this film and more than likely Beyond the Spider-Verse next year? I think he's pulled ahead of Batman and firmly taken hold of that #1 spot.
