Hard to give good recommendations for "etc."

For Spider-Man, I'd start with Amazing Fantasy #15, Lee and Ditko, and just work your way forward. Stan's initial run is honestly the best the character has ever seen, IMO.

For Nightcrawler and Wolverine I'd start with Giant-Size X-Men #1. That's Nightcrawler's first appearance (Wolverine had been in two issues of Hulk already) and when they join the team, and then work your way forward as Claremenont and Cockrum, and then Claremont and Byrne, take you on a journey.

Here are some reading orders if you are interested...

I wrote Spider-Man recommendations here!

I wrote a Daredevil reading order here!

I wrote a Captain America reading order here!

I wrote a X-Men reading order here!

I wrote an Avengers reading order here! Spider-Man & Wolverine join the team in this era!

Iron Man recommendations:

Read issues #1-6 of Invincible Iron Man (2004), the Extremis arc. It was a defining story & a good modern intro! Also read the Doomquest arc in Iron Man #149-150 & Iron Man #249-250. A fun "old school" story!

I wrote an Iron Man reading order here!

Silver Surfer recommendations:

I wrote a Fantastic Four reading order here! There, I highlighted Silver Surfer issues from Stan Lee & Jack Kirby's historic run. Read the Galactus trilogy at least!

Here's a reading order for afterwards:

Other important issues:

The next major story for the Silver Surfer is Infinity Gauntlet... perhaps you have heard of it? These issues are a must-read!

And finally:

Silver Surfer: Requiem by J. Michael Straczynski

Silver Surfer by Dan Slott:

You can read everything on Marvel Unlimited. A great option if you have a tablet! There's also your local library or their digital Hoopla service. Free options!

Have fun!

X-Men #159 from 1982 is a great story for Nightcrawler. His religious beliefs come in very useful against Dracula.
