What Is or Are the Best Superhero Theme(s) of the Last Twelve Years?

Even though it's not a complete theme in the traditional sense, I think the strongest one is Hans Zimmer and James Newton Howard's theme for Christopher Nolan's Batman movies.

I can only think of one: "Unbreakable" (James Newton Howard)

Though "Spider-Man" (Elfman) gets a honorable mention.

I don't remember the Unbreakable score.

Spider-Man was OK, but not great. Maybe right behind the Christopher Nolan Batman movies.

And I thought Zimmer & J.N.H.'s Nolan Batman score was utter crap.

"Captain America: The First Avenger"
"Superman Returns"
"Spider-Man 1, 2, and 3".

Courage, men! We've not sunk before, and we'll not sink now!
