WTF! Sorry, The vast majority of characters that Bendis made into Avengers were not team players or in the case of Wolvy, were already on a team. IF & PM function way better as HFH, not as part of a team. Spiderman to me, has always been a solo hero who occasionally teams up with other heroes hence the great classic MTU series, DD is also another solo hero who works best on his own.

Agree, I felt like Bendis would take 1-2 charcters in a team book, concentrate on them, and the rest of the characters would be out of character, replaceable with anyone else, because they had an empty voice. He was great as a solo writer, beyond the total dismissal of continuity. Team books were not his forte. And neither were events, except for House Of M, which I thought was awesome even with the damage it did to Scarlet Witch's character. I don't know how he got that one so right yet every other event I read by him was trash.
