::Another reason why I am so against it is because I know editors like [[:User:J Greb]] would be against it. I don't know if he is active anymore but he did know best from comic book navboxes many of times.

:::I'm still kicking around, though less actively these days.
:::With Henderson there are two things point to not including him here:
:::#He originates outside of the comics. For the most part this group of templates self limits to the comic book material, not characters drawn from radio, television, or film. Henderson was created for, and used extensively in the radio series ''The Adventures of Superman'' which ran from 1940 through 1951. Hw was carried over to TV in 1952. He didn't appear in comics until 1974, and even then he was a minor character.
:::#Is pretty much that last part, in the comics he's a minor character. Most of the cases where a media import - Harley, Montoya, and the like - has become important to the comics, inclusion in the comic skewed navboxes makes sense. (In that vein, Mercy Grave's inclusion almost makes sense, and Liverwire's doesn't.)
:::As an aside, the point Jhenderson777 brings up regarding Wonder Woman is whether the character is ''really'' a supporting character and/or ''really'' integral to the topic at hand. Wonder Woman and Superman, not so much. Batman and Catwoman, very much so. (I also tend to disagree with Catwoman or other Bat-villains needing separate 'boxes.)
