Tom, when coming up with a team book, how much do you require that cast members contribute to the stories? Like in Bendis' Guardians of the Galaxy, Iron Man, Captain Marvel, and Angela generally did little of importance to the general stories that were being told. Same thing with characters like Spider-Man, Wolverine and Falcon in Hickman's Avengers, or most of the new mutants created in Aaron's (and subsequently Latour's) X-Men runs.

The stories don’t get done until after we have the cast.
