Looking at this page and seeing Element Lad's costume for the first time in ages, it struck me that Joe Staton's E-Man has an incredibly similar uniform (though very different powers). Originally, Charlton owned E-Man, but by the time DC bought the Charlton superheroes it was after Staton had become the art director at First Comics and convinced First to buy E-Man from Charlton (with the idea of eventually repaying them out of his royalties).
But if DC had made their Charlton deal sooner, there is a better than zero chance that E-man would have been among the characters Alan Moore based his Watchmen on, and when relaunching the Charlton heroes as DC comics, both Element Lad and E-Man would have existed simultaneously in the same DC universe.
Two dudes with E on their chest. Crazy thought, eh?

That is a wild thought. A lot of WHAT IF's along the road of Legion Lore. Thank you for sharing
