Awesome Foreign Superhero Movies You Have To See

August 1, 2021 by Red Stewart

Marvelous Videos presents eight foreign superhero movies worth checking out…

Superheroes are best associated with western audiences: after all, the vast majority of the great comic book companies emerged in countries like the United States, United Kingdom, and France.

However, though names like Marvel, DC, and 2000 AD are recognizable among the general populace, they are hardly the only producers of such content. Many other countries in Europe and Asia have worked to develop their own cinematic superheroes, creating some genuinely interesting variants on the Joseph Campbell monomyth and Nietzschean Übermensch.

Courtesy of our friends at Marvelous Videos, here are eight awesome foreign superhero movies worth your time in The Heroic Trio, Zebraman, Black Lightning, HK: Forbidden Super Hero, The Invisible Boy, Major Grom, They Call Me Jeeg, and Mard Ko Dard Nahi Hota…
