If you did not make restrictions, these 3 would be by far my favorites:

The X-Men cartoon series is the correct answer.

The Dark Knight Trilogy, Avengers, The Batman, Raimi's Spider-Man, WW (even though I don't like it), Hulk, and "What Are You Going to Do When you Aren't Saving the World" (don't know if that's the official theme from Man of Steel) all stand out in my mind.

Far and away I love his Mask of the Phantasm/The Batman mash-up the most, although I think the brilliant inclusion of the '66 theme is ruined by incorporating the Imperial March.

Wonder Woman is the "modern" winner. It's also hands down the best thing to come out of the DCEU (followed closely by the first Wonder Woman movie.) It is an incredible theme song.
I also love The Avengers theme. It's short and simple, but they use it well and I really love when it shows up in other places...slower or just plinked out on a piano. Really moving stuff.

My favorite is the one where Hans Zimmer fell asleep face down on his keyboard and someone recorded it.

Yeah sometimes he does that not sure why. Maybe he's just flexing that he can put it in there and make it work but it can be pretty jarring.

Watched No Way Home again and definitely love the Giacchino score. And thSt new theme is so good and definitely distinct.

The Batman is hands down the best superhero soundtrack in the last 20 years. It’s not just a good “superhero theme” it’s a legitimately great soundtrack period.
This track, in particular, is my favorite:
Fucking brilliant!

This superhero theme quiz is interesting, how did you do? I got most of them. The simpler the music, the more memorable and hummable it is:

I came up with 7 and one 1 recognized but couldn't place. All the others left no impression on me at all, although I know all of the movies.

That video was terrible. Who uploads a movie in one channel mono? Plus 15 seconds isn't long enough and the clips they chose were really bizarre. Can't figure out what the song is if you play 10 seconds leading up to the theme.
This one is a lot better. Only gives 10 seconds but it's mostly of the theme and they do some fun animations and clips with them. The definition of Superhero is a little suspect but still fun. Turn it down though if you listen with headphones. They added fun eardrum busting sound effects.
This one is great too but only MCU.
