➤ Tom Holland has the best Spider-Man performance, combining all aspects of Peter Parker.
➤ George Clooney is the most underrated iteration of Batman (the suit isn't his fault!).
➤ Margot Robbie's Harley Quinn might be one of the best superhero castings in modern cinema.
➤ Matt Fraction and David Aja's Hawkeye comic series remains one of the best of all time.
➤ Every novel by Ali Hazelwood, Emily Henry and Katee Robert is a must-read.
