I'm not sure how true that is, but I think that you can put almost anyone on a Batman book and it will be a hit. The sad part, though, is that all the less famous books with the famous names in the past didn't sell. I think there should be a balance. By all means, use Ellis on Avengers. But also make sure he gets to do things like Nextwave. The logic in putting big names on smaller books is that the big books will sell with lesser names.
