Mark Twain did this with Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn. In "Tom Sawyer," Huckleberry Finn was the number two character after Tom. After they discovered $12,000 of gold together (a quarter of a million in today's money), Huck became "equal" to Tom. So it made sense for Huck to have his own novel, with Tom as his number two. I once considered doing this for a hero and heroine series (a his and her series if you will).
