You have something there. Almost all of the superheros: Superman and Spiderman stand out me though.
I don't read comics so others might know better than I do about this. It seems to me that Marvel makes more of an effort to make their characters three dimensional, complete with power limitations, tragic mistakes or personality flaws, the surrounding characters act with their own motivations rather than just fawn all over the protagonist. Stan Lee makes cameo appearances in all the movies but that's the same kind of self-insertion (as the main character) that the trope represents. Correct me if I'm wrong on this one since my knowledge is limited to what's in the movies.
Wolverine seems to walk that line and some believe, depending on the writer, he ventures over it.
