The second season of Invincible touches on this with the Mauler Twins (which aren't actually twins, but instead one guy who clones himself and copies over his brain so there is always two of him around):
spoiler
Usually when they make a clone they can't tell which of them is the original and which is the copy (even though they ought to be able to know by remembering which medical bed the original was lying in, but never mind that), so they work together as equals. However, one time they make a copy after having suffered a disfiguring injury, so they know which one is the original and he lords it over the copy until the copy gets fed up and kills him. The copy sums it up as "sometimes things are the way they are for a good fucking reason."
