See, here's an example. The character will sorta be an OC, but he'll have the minds/memories/personalities of a lot of canons from DC (And many other things) inside of his head, and they'll constantly be at war within his brain. Wanted to make sure the idea was okay, before I did it next month, as I'm trying to avoid any and all Lorebreaking, or anything like that.
No, you can't have a bunch of personalities from non-OC canons in your head.
You could, however, come up with a bunch of original personalities and come up with a creative way to have them in your head. Again, Renji is a good example (he has all these souls trapped in a sword). Your original characters can be similar to those non-originals as long as they aren't straight rip-offs.
For example, I have an NPC who is pretty much Max Payne. But I changed his name and his appearance and now he's just your run-of-the-mill washed up police officer. You can totally have some made-up version of whoever you want and put their personality inside someone's head. This also gives you so much more creative freedom when it's YOUR character and not a comic book character.
