Spider-Man hands down.
TDK isgood great, but its more of like a crime-thriller with comic book characters.
Spider-Man made the blueprint for todays CBM
When that shyt came out
That feeling. Civil War gave me that same feeling. It was like watching a Saturday morning cartoon irl.

Love is a long road.
Blade is what really started it all.

Blade really kicked off the new era of non cheesy comicbook movies. So you have credit it for starting this. But Spider man probably was the first crossover hit, that got more casuals than comic fans.
Blade made it a hot line
spider made it a hot song.
I remember seeing blade and xmen and being like
i remember seeing spidey and spidey 2 and being like
first time i started reading rumors and shyt for a super hero movie was for spidey 3.
I was all in on cape movies from that point on.

It's clearly spidey
Batman 3 and 4 killed the genre. It was dead.
Blade Xmen Spidey
Thats the holy 3 for me. They resurrected the genre. They set it all off.
No one was on that tip,then blade had sucess R rated style and had exces thinking what if this was marketted as a superhero cookie cutter pg13 type movie....then someone did xmen..........$$$$$$ started the big big studios scrambling.....then Spidey broke all records and basically we got a new genre.....Iron Man took it to another level, building universes. lets see where we go next....
I voted Superman 1978 though.

It's a tough call.

enough that I remember being 
when I saw Superman on VHS in the 80's as a kid. Batman 89 felt like that formula taken a step further
I agree that Blade started a new chapter for the genre as we know it now, though. That film had bigger ambitions than technology of the time could properly translate in some ways.
They also nailed the idea that a comic book movie could cross over genres. That movie always felt as much a horror/thriller as a CBM to me. Dark Knight took that philosophy and applied it to psychological drama. It always felt like a great crime drama where the protagonist just happened to be Batman and the villain just happened to be The Joker. Same way I think about 'Winter Soldier' as basically a spy movie.
Watching the evolution through the decades has been crazy though.

Why ain't Blade get his due in the thread 
Blade was the first superhero movie that removed the dumbass campy, goofy shyt that Batman evolved into. After that, Xmen dropped, and then Spiderman crushed buildings
.
Then Nolan dropped a bomb on the industry on how to make a modern superhero flick...and then the goat Fiege took over from there
But not none of that would've happened if Blade didn't show us what a bad mufuka could do
