Jeeze, god knows... In an infinite number of alternate universes, I
guess there would be an infinite number of champions. Moorcock certainly
gives the impression that there are quite a few. He mentions many that
he hasn't written about. I guess that every society has a champion,
though the champion is not necessaraly the central character of all of
his books. I seem to remember there being some kind of confusion between
wether Una Persson or Jerry were the champion.
