In the 60's and 70's it was opposite, Avengers were much more popular than X-Men, at least until Claremont came along. A few years into the 00's and onwards and Avengers have been on top again. Spider-Man of course being on top through the entire time, always A-list, but in the 80's and 90's it is not a stretch to say that Wolverine, Hulk and Storm were their # 2-4 characters for those decades. They were the A list for those decades. It's not that the Avengers Trinity were not A-list in comic terms, they just weren't on the public radar, despite being known they were not stepped in mainstream culture as much. So to say they were not A list might be correct to a fault, but only because of the flip flop of what was popular in comics at the time. I don't know if that makes sense or not.

You hit he nail on the head ! we share a common interest in that era of comics then

as far as all the MCU movies that came out, the only ones i really was unaware of was GOTG. not to mention there was a different version of them prior to the movies.
