What about April, May, and June?  Or the Beagle Brats?  Okay,  so they are 
"spinoffs" created to directly counter HD&L  (Girls to  Boys and Bad to Good),

Beep Beep the Road Runner (The one who spoke in RHYME like Bucky Bug - as  
opposed to Chuck Jones' Road Runner)  had three identical SONS (!) in the  Dell 
and Gold Key comics. 
 
...And, didn't Popeye have FOUR identical nephews in the Famous Studios
