Needs some thought to get a list, but Spider-Man would have to be my No 1. Reading those first 30+ issues, where the villains were (in the main) fleshed out with their own origin stories. Excellent.

Seems the recurring villains happened at a greater rate during the earlier parts of longer run titles. 

I'll split them up;

Marvel
Spider-Man
Daredevil
X-Men (original)
Iron Man
Invaders

DC
Flash
Batman
Justice Society
Superman
Aquaman
