Except Captain Atom had a 57 issue run and was (originally) going to be the villain of Armageddon 2001, The Question had a 36 issue run (plus 7 annuals) and set the tone of Vertigo, and Blue Beetle was not only a headliner of that era's Justice League, but also had a 24 issue solo series while doing so.
They actually DID something with those characters. Hell, Maxwell Lord killing Ted Kord was symbolically considered even in universe the moment DC had gone too far. Blue Beetle MEANT something.
Meanwhile, I couldn't tell you if any of the Wildstorm character still exist after Doomsday Clock. Hell, I can't think of a single Wildstorm character that's been built up long enough in the DCU to have same gut-punch deaths like Ted undoing Booster's attempts at saving him, or The Question dying in Renee Montoya's arms to pass on his legacy to her.
