When discussing your tally of how many DC characters are in the show, you mentioned that Kent Nelson, Dr. Fate, and Nabu are considered three separate characters by DC, but Bruce Wayne and Batman are considered a single one.

1) I'm wondering where Roy falls on this scale. Does "Roy Harper" count as a single character, or do Speedy (the real Roy) and Red Arrow (the clone) count as two separate characters?
2) If the two Roys are considered separate characters, does the production team think of him as a character original to the show (like Kaldur), a twist on the character (like a heroic Artemis), a unique adaption (like Klarion as a Lord of Chaos), or just a straight take on the character who... happens to be a clone?

1. Two.

2. You're making distinctions, shaving the pie, that we're not making. Judge for yourself, I guess.
