** Temple Fugate was a subversion. Although the Clock King is a canon character, the DCAU version was an original entry with a separate name and backstory from his comic counterpart. He was also originally an enemy of Green Arrow rather than Batman while the success of the show led to other, new versions of the Clock King with a design similar to the DCAU version to premiere in the comics.

The ''Franchise/DCAnimatedUniverse'' had characters that made their first appearance.
* ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries'':

* Everyone in ''WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyond'' except Bruce Wayne, Barbara Gordon, and Mr. Freeze. Prominent examples would be Terry [=McGinnis=] (who would later become a CanonImmigrant) and his family, Max Gibson, the vast majority of the villains (including BigBad Derek Powers), Barbara's husband Sam and Terry's love interest Dana Tan. The members of the [[Comicbook/JusticeLeagueOfAmerica JLU]] (barring Comicbook/{{Superman}} and Big Barda) were similar to Terry, being new {{Legacy Character}}s that were patterned after existing DC heroes: Warhawk for Comicbook/{{Hawkman}} (with ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeagueUnlimited'' later revealing him to be the son of Hawkgirl and John Stewart), Aquagirl for Comicbook/{{Aquaman}} and Micron for Comicbook/TheAtom, with Kai-Ro serving as Earth's future Comicbook/GreenLantern.
* ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeague'' and ''Unlimited'' used a bunch of characters who split the difference between Canon Foreigner and {{Expy}}:
** Hro Talak is Comicbook/{{Hawkman}}, only evil. Except he can't be Hawkman, because the ''real'' Hawkman ([[CompositeCharacter Carter Hall/Katar Hol]]) appeared in a later season. DC [[ExecutiveVeto didn't allow]] the writers to make Hawkman evil. ''Hro Talak'' is an anagram of ''Katar Hol''.
** Galatea is ComicBook/PowerGirl, except she's a clone of Comicbook/{{Supergirl}} rather than an AlternateUniverse counterpart. And she's [[AdaptationalVillainy evil]].
** The Ultimen are the ComicBook/WonderTwins and the other original "[[CaptainEthnic ethnic]]" characters from ''WesternAnimation/SuperFriends'', only competent. And they're clones created by the GovernmentConspiracy.
** The Justice Guild is the [[UsefulNotes/TheGoldenAgeOfComicBooks Golden Age]] Comicbook/JusticeSocietyOfAmerica (with a little bit of Creator/AdamWest as ''Series/Batman1966'' for flavor).
** Devil Ray is practically Black Manta, only he's a nemesis of Franchise/WonderWoman instead of Comicbook/{{Aquaman}} ([[ExiledFromContinuity who could not be used in the later seasons due to the unsold Aquaman pilot]]).
** And in a cross-company example, the Justice Lords are versions of the JLA who became corrupted by their abilities and all but conquered Earth for "the greater good", only to be betrayed by their Batman. In other words, the Comicbook/SquadronSupreme. WordOfGod also stated they were based on ''ComicBook/TheAuthority''. The Justice Lord became {{Canon Immigrant}}s as of ''ComicBook/TheMultiversity''.
** Tsukuri and Aresia are [[AdaptationalVillainy evil versions]] of Comicbook/{{Katana}} and [[Comicbook/InfinityInc Fury]].
* Most of the villains from ''WesternAnimation/StaticShock'' were created for the series, with the major exceptions being Hot-Streak, Puff, Tarmack, D-Struct and Rubberband Man. Richie Foley (AKA Gear) and She-Bang were also created for the show, though the former was a CaptainErsatz of Rick Stone, Static's buddy from the comics.
* ''WesternAnimation/SupermanTheAnimatedSeries'' had quite a few with Volcana, Luminus, the Preserver, Sgt. Corey Mills, General Hardcastle, Detective Kurt Bowman, Darci Mason, and Unity. Mercy Graves, Livewire, and Angela Chen started here and became {{Canon Immigrant}}s.
* ''WebAnimation/LoboWebseries'': Every character except Lobo and Darlene were made for the series.
* ''WebAnimation/GothamGirls'' had Caroline Greenway, Selma Reesedale and Dora Smithy.
