I say that because I feel like comic book superhero stuff is part of our pop culture. I think I've read one or two superhero comics in my life (Superman) and a Batman graphic novel, for some reason. And, yet, I know about the comics Civil War and A Killing Joke and a few other things that made a big enough noise in comics for me to hear about.

But I have watched:
The 60s Batman show in syndication (I even watched the movie)
A couple of episodes of the black and white Superman show
The Christopher Reeve Superman movies (and even the Supergirl one)
The Incredible Hulk show
A couple of episodes of the Linda Carter Wonder Woman show
The cartoon Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends (very fond of that one)
Some of the Justice League Unlimited cartoon
Early seasons of Smallville
An episode or two of the 90s Flash
The 90s Batman movies
Not all of the X-Men movies, but a fair amount
At least three Spider-Man movies
At least a few episodes each of Arrow and Supergirl, and more of The Flash and Legends of Tomorrow
An episode or two of Gotham
Nine or ten of the MCU movies to date

And if you asked DC or Marvel, I don't know what I would say.

This whole thing is honestly really interesting for me - the way that we just assume that comic books are the central part of the superhero genre, and everything else is just an unofficial adaptation that doesn't "count" as the "real thing". Even though they're more popular and have been around for decades.

Personally, I've noticed it in myself with science fiction and fantasy - I have this unconscious assumption that written science fiction and fantasy is the "real" science fiction and fantasy, and that sf&f movies, TV shows, video games, etc are all a bunch of secondary things that don't really "count". Even though, objectively, all of those things are way more popular and influential than actual written SF&F.

ayrt

Yeah, it's so interesting.

And, I'm with you on the science fiction, even though I'd be hard pressed to explain exactly why certain thing don't count or don't count as much.
