Every time I look back over or update my comics series indexes, I find myself increasingly lamenting the "revolving door" nature of creative team line-ups. It isn't even a matter of this person staying around for a time, and eventually being replaced by that person. I'm talking about books where it sometimes seems IMPOSSIBLE for the editors to have the same people on even 2 issues in a row!
Anybody besides me ever get tired of this kind of thing? Whatever happened to the days when someone would create a series themselves, and because it was theirs, STAY on it all the way? Or if they were getting on an existing book, make it "theirs", and stay on it for as long as possible?
Anyone besides me think the interchangeable nature of US comics creative "teams" is something that's PREVENTING US comics from being looked on as anything remotely approaching a legitimate artform?
I'd have a TON of examples top bring up... but I'd like to see if someone else can come up with some of their own...
