International Superhits! is Green Day's greatest hits album, released in 2001. It contains recordings from their major label debut, 1994's Dookie, up through their most recent album of the time, 2000's Warning:. In addition, it includes two non-album tracks, "Maria" and "Poprocks & Coke".

It was released simultaneously with the International Supervideos! DVD, which had music videos for many of the songs on this album.

Reaching #40 US and #15 UK upon its release, International Superhits! has sold 1.3 million units in the US as of August 2006 where it went platinum. It has continued to be a popular release, being critically well-received, and is generally considered the ideal entry point for Green Day novices.
