There are quite a few, dating back from when X-Men got popular to the modern day.
However, in the early days, it was common to just use radiation. How many characters were similar to the F4, the Hulk, or Spider-Man? Mutant became one of the major explanations, even outside the X-Titles.
The Major difference is that one is Marvel and one is DC. Coke vs Pepsi. Pringles vs chips. Blonds vs brunettes. It's a difference of preference. Both have had strong, KILLER runs. Even though I'm not big on DC, Batman has had Year one, and the whole Dark Knight returns. Even Superman has had a few interesting story arcs, and I find him to be one of the least interesting characters in general.
