An average of 3 per year starting from 2003. By 2011 it was an average of 5 superhero movies per year. Currently we're on 6 a year.

I find it interesting that this seems to overlap with the period of Trump's rise to power.

Well, you do have two competing media empires turning them out looking for $$$. Warner vs. Disney. And the odd outsider...

So far this year we have:

Disney:

Captain America: Brave New World $200,500,001

Thunderbolts* $189,945,847

Fantastic Four – July 25, 2025

Warner:

Superman $155,045,310

Sony:

Kraven the Hunter $3,110,836
