DC has two Spider-Man expies - Blue Beetle and Static. Both worth a read. Since they're minor, any point is a good entry point - no need to read up on their origin story to make sense of them

For Batman, you don't have a clear entry point unless you focus on his New 52 appearances. Just go for Scott Snyder's part, then Morrison's, and ignore the rest. Morrison's Batman Inc has some incongruities as it's partially set in pre-New 52.

And for X-Men... they're often likened to the Doom Patrol, but I'm not too fond of the most recent Doom Patrol (Byrne's stuff) and the Vertigo years might be a bit weird. If you like Weird, go for The Painting That Are Paris.

And try Young Justice. If you liked Weisman and Cook's Spectacular Spider-Man (which is the best Spidey cartoon ever), you'll love this. Strong characters, good stories, screws by the network.
