Is away for a long time, when he does his training (kinda Batman Begins)
Has all kinds of high-tech gadgets to aid his crime fighting
Has connections to the police

Well, there's a reason. Green Arrow and Martian Manhunter were created to be a "poorman's Batman and Superman."

When DC created the concept of the Justice League, (And I can't remember which) either they knew they couldn't use Batman and Superman for every story and needed to have substitutes, or they could not use those two at all for the concept at first and needed to create substitutes.
