With less than 3 months remaining in this decade and no more new CBMs in this decade, we can now update the list of the best CBMs of each decade:
1970s - Superman: The Movie 1980s - Superman II 1990s - Batman Returns 2000s - The Dark Knight 2010s - Joker
Congrats to DC for extending its steak of having the best CBM of the decade to 5 consecutive decades and counting!

Nice call, even if my list is different. And I would add that DC Comics has a TREMENDOUS string of TRUE smash hits which destroyed the box office: 1- Superman: The Movie 2- Superman II 3- Batman 4- Batman Returns 5- Batman Forever 6- The Dark Knight 7- The Dark Knight Rises 8- Batman v Superman 9- Suicide Squad 10- Wonder Woman 11- Aquaman 12- Joker

Joker wouldn't be in the top 3 of the decade even if we're only counting DC movies.

A big congrats to DC. Let's admit it. the only marvel films that can even contend for this titles would be the Sony and Fox Marvel movies. their best ones.
MCU Marvel is just too kiddie to be considered a best.

Who decided Joker was the best CBM of the decade? Joker not only won the Golden Lion award at the Venice Film Festival but also has an 8.7 rating on IMDb, which puts it at #2 (behind only The Dark Knight) among all CBMs and at #13 among all movies.

There were like only two comic book movies that saw theatrical release in the 1970s, Superman: The Movie and Baba Yaga, both of which have nothing to do with each other in anyway shape or form outside of being adapted from comic strips. Superman: The Movie wins by default because there were no other superheroes occupying the big screen, it's pretty much a 'no duh' type of situation to cite as the best of the decade, because there really was nothing else.

Black Panther may have a 7.3/10 on IMDb, yet it still got nominated for 7 Oscars, including its historic Best Picture nomination. Let's not forget Black Panther kicks the crap out of Joker's Rotten Tomatoes percentage. Black Panther has a 97% while Joker only has a 68%.

And it's well-known that Black Panther was given the Best Picture nomination because the Academy was afraid of being called racist if they didn't nominate Black Panther. The fact is Black Panther didn't earn the nomination on merit but by using the race card.

BP imo was NOT deserving of a Best Picture nod but I highly doubt it getting such is due to the Academy being afraid of being called racist, this shows your own dumb as fuck mentality.
Just for the record a Best Picture nomination requires all of 5% of the academy to support it, 16% of the Academy are people of colour, as of 2018 atleast, probably has increased since then, which means there are 3 times the amount of people of colour needed to "artificially" boost a films nomination, which also given Black Panther received huge support from the black community the idea that carried over to the Oscars makes potential sense.
The idea that massive amounts of the academy members were afraid of being labelled racist in a blind ballot situation so they falsely voted for BP is ridiculous, especially given several other films about people of colour was nominated for BP that year and had been nominated for BP the previous years also you goof.

Have you even seen Joker yet? I bet you haven't.
Personally I would go 1990's with either Blade or Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles over Batman Returns hell I think The Mask is better than Returns as is The Crow, Returns is not that great a movie, you either lover it or hate it on the Burtonisms about it really.
2010's as I haven't seen Joker yet I would have to give it to Logan still, Spider-Verse is also really good, and also Joker isn't a CBM, it's a early Scorsese style movie that just slapped on DC intellectual property names onto stuff to be able to market the movie as something it isn't from most accounts.
And why be so lazy why not include the 1960 Batman movie? it was released Theatrically, hell I would say the 90's you could say the Batman animated movie they released is better than Batman Returns, everyone loves BTAS and that movie.
Also it isn't much of a streak when it's only just your opinion, yours being as valuable as a used tampon.

But hpw your mind skips over things is quite humorous, like you skip certain films for no reason seemingly given profit is clearly not something you take into account, which is why you include BVS despite it earning $40m less at the box office than it cost to make and market, and that you don't understand what a string is actual in reference to, also is it really tremendous you could only list 12 films over 40 years? Spiderman can list 7 over 17 years, X-Men about the same, Marvel Studios can list 14 films that have grossed over $700m in just the last 11 years, more movies than DC and in less than 1/3 the time, now that's truly impressive.
That being said DC has had some insane success, first cbm to gross over $1B, were they the first film franchise to have 2 films cross $1B also? highest grossing R rated movie of all time, first ever real CBM's to be presented to the world with Superman & Batman, cannot thumb your nose at their success.
