Adaptations of comics, sorry, graphic novels, have never really been my thing. But I saw Robert Downey Jr. As “Iron Man” last week, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. It was great in fact. But there are four other superhero films to come this season, which comes close to overload for me. After giving it some thought, I realized that I am looking forward to the summer’s superhero movies in the following order... check them out after the jump.

1. “The Dark Knight”
2. “Hancock”
3. “Hellboy 2”
4. “The Incredible Hulk”

What it comes down to, I’ve realized, for me, as a woman, is the aesthetic appeal of the outfit. I just can’t get excited about a large, green, sinewy, bulging, steroided-out, hair-on-his-back muscle freak. I’m equally not into a sunburned chump with two Oscar Meyer bologna packs on his forehead. (Although “Hellboy” gets points for its director, Guillermo del Toro.) Give me Will Smith whatever he’s wearing, or a sleek, rippling Batsuit -- even if it does have pointy ears and a cape.

Come to think of it, Spiderman and Superman look pretty darn good in those tights too. Maybe the success of a superhero franchise depends on the coolness of the costume? If that’s the case though. Shouldn’t “Catwoman” have been a huge hit?
