You can make the case for Spider-Man and all his kinfolks.
Along with Red Sonja.
As with Sabrina The Teen Witch.
Along with Shuri
Along with every version of Star Trek, Star Wars, Power Rangers & Dr Who.
So Hi-Max is correct in that.
At the end of the day all those guys represent their respective franchise. The point Secret Warrior is making.
Harley is still a Batman family member.
Zeo, Turbo, SPD or whatever adjective used-they are all still POWER RANGERS.
So when the accountants look at them-they are looking at the franchise as a whole and how each of those performed.
Here is where DC SCREWS up-they want this Green Lantern franchise to be about ONE person.
In SPITE of sales by the others or fan reception.
Jessica & Simon's book at various time outsold as floppies and trades Hal & TGLC.
Kyle held this franchise as the lead for 10 years.
Mosaic was NOT axed over sales.
This franchise once had Sinesto, Red Lanterns, Lafreeze, White Guardians, GLC & Green Lantern books all at once.
The Batman family has at least 9 characters who boast over 70+ solo issues. 5 have 100 or more.
Superman family-Superman, Lois, Jimmy, Supergirl & Conner-100 or more solo issues.
None at the expense of either one.
Green Lantern is an editorial issue.
