Supporting Characters that could carry their own book

[superman-mos]

Any thoughts as to what characters could carry their own series or mini series?
Gotham Central was a pretty good book and it focused on the supporting police characters from Batman . I always thought Lois Lane could carry a mystery/investigative book and also thought Jimmy Olsen could carry a book that focused on him being an adventurous photographer, something in the vein of TinTin or something. Traveling the world and getting into many adventures while pursuing that front page quality photo

I could see a good side comic series being made for Mera

 

[MMMMM...Pancakes]

I like your idea sweetre of Mera getting a book, I think that will definitely happen if Aquaman the movie is a success.

Commissioner Gordon. Maybe not a starring role, but Carol Ferris as Star Saphire joining an earth based team.

Gotham Central is fantastic, one of my favorite series. I love seeing what it's like being a regular detective in Gotham City, and thought it was cool, the way that they resented but also had a begrudging respect for Batman and were competitive. One of the best gritty hardboiled detective noir series out there, and what better place than Gotham?


Somebody needs to resurrect the series.


But could you imagine a True Detective/The Wire style series based around Gotham Central? It could even connect to the DCEU and feature cameos by some of the major characters, like an episode involving Batfleck for example.


Agree that Lois Lane or Vicki Vale could make a great investigative reporter mini series, something similar to David Fincher's Zodiac or The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo. Although I might be mistaking Vicki Vale for an investigative reporter, when she's actually more like a television news anchor style reporter?

If Mera's an option, then I'd also go for a book about the Others.

If it's strictly non-super supporting characters, Amanda Waller, perhaps?

Good idea ! Amanda Waller could have her own serie. I never thought of that. But since it's a complex character who has relationship with quite a lot of humans and meta-humans, it's actually a brilliant idea.

I'm thinking about Lois Lane for sure.
Mera as some mentionned, is a good idea too.
I always thought Kilowog and or Tomar-Re could have their own mini.
As some of you mentioned, Gordon, yes, it's a good idea.
Hippolyta, the queen of the amazons.
The blue lanterns. Actually I would have liked to see Kyle stay a blue lantern and follow a book about him like the old days.

Good suggestion It would never have occurred to me, but an Amanda Waller book could be really interesting.

Mera 100%

Also, Lilith Clay could be a fascinating character to flesh out in her own series.

And I'm not sure if I'd consider him a supporting character, but Martian Manhunter needs his own title.

I'd also say that after the past issue of RH&tO, if I were DC I'd green light a limited series based on Bizarro's perspective on the world. That was pure gold.
