They are many X-men that can match the numbers of characters I just mentioned above.
If you guys want to have a convo on how the comic market sucks and only Spiderman, Venom, Superman, Wonder Woman, Flash, Thor, Batman, Deadpool, Harley Quinn, Spiderman, Wolverine, and X-men, Justice League, Avengers, Star Wars, Walking Dead can carry a book aka actually sustain numbers in Marvel or DC we can have it. But just know everything else degrades in numbers until they are cancellation level for Marvel or DC. People in this convo mistake the comic market being trash for characters can't carry a solo. Hellboy, Savage Dragon, Ninja Turtles, Spawn all stick around with numbers lower than numbers many of the X-books solos. The problem is Marvel and DC format more than the books themselves, manga like Jujustu Kazien,MHA, and Demon Slayer show up and excel which proves new or different things can work.
How the comic market is set up a terrible format for most characters saying characters can't carry a book ignores that nothing really works and over the last 50 years only Deadpool, Harley Quinn, and Venom have moved up to the consistent sellers group.
