The 7 Great Families of DC

[MajorHoy]

. . . It's a pity they aren't used more these days (speaking of - is that Stargirl #1 EVER coming out?)

At this rate, I doubt it.

The Stargirl Spring Break Special was published in May 2021, and nothing about Stargirl #1 was mentioned in the June 2021 through May 2022 solicitations.

With all this renewed emphasis on legacy, it got me thinking how DC has essentially 7 big families.
We usually only see a big focus on the Batfamily, but Superman, Wonder Woman, Flash, Aquaman, Green Arrow and Green Lantern all have a pretty formidable cast of supporting and legacy characters, many of which have lead their own series or have the potential to do so.
There are also some important legacies like Starman's, which sadly doesn't have many active heroes nowadays.

To me, the families are more or less this:

SUPERMAN
Superman (Kal-El)
New Superman (Jon Kent)
Supergirl (Kara Zor-El)
Supergirl II (Linda Danvers) - should go by Seraph
Superboy (Conner Kent) - should go by Supernova
Super-Man of China (Kenan Kong)
Steel II (Natasha Irons)
Steel (John Henry Irons)
Power Girl (Karen Starr)
Valor (Val-Zod)
President Superman (Calvin Ellis)

Why do you hate Krypto?

Jeez. My OP wasn't meant to be the definite list of families and all their members.
You guys sure like to nitpick lol

It was just meant as an introductory post for us to discuss these franchises and the characters DC could be using more.
