Direct Object or Subject Complement?

Is the highlighted Complement a Direct Object or a Subject Complement?

Where Subjects are followed by the verb be (am, is, was, etc.) the following Complement is the Subject Complement. So %%PW,0,ARE,Subject Complement%%: %%WL,0%%.

The other cases are Direct Objects of the main verb: %%PW,1,ARE,Direct Object%%: %%WL,1%%.
