Agreed. Roger Stern made one of the best Avengers' runs ever, working with basically a six member team. AWC went through the first couple of years with merely five (the hunt for a sixth member was actually a story point), yet it had some of the best adventures of the run. And we have also Cap's Kookey Quartet, which, not a favorite of mine, is one of the most reknown line-ups for the team. Yet Shooter's famous run had a status-quo of seven members, with always, at least, one hanger-on, however, they frequently went up to almost 10-12 members. DeFalco and Ryan's FF is one of my favorite runs of the book, yet most of the run you had the group reduced to 3 active members (Reed was believed dead), but the number and variety of characters that came and went (Namor, Lyja, Ant-Man, Black Panther, Psi-Lord, Kristoff Vernard, Ms Marvel, etc...) made that run, IMHO, so unpredictable and exciting. Then you have your Legion of Super-Heroes, the All-Star Squadron, or your satelite era Justice League, which NEEDS to be a larger team, mostly so it can be subdivided into smaller squads, tackling different threats. , Do you have a cap on the number of characters a superhero team should have or do you think any number of characters can work?, Unlike the large majority of top-selling books that has a good number of extremely positive reviews, Wells' run doesn't. Ah So the reviews need to be "extremely positive" now, do they? You're moving the goalposts. My point was that people like this run. I've provided examples of people.
