Do You Have a Comic You'll Buy No Matter Who's Writing It?

I've noticed that a lot of comic runs eventually change enough that I end up dropping them and moving on to something else. A new writer comes in, the direction changes, or the book just stops clicking with me.

That got me wondering: do you have a comic title that you'll keep buying no matter who the writer or artist is? For me, there are certain characters I'll almost always give a chance, even if the creative team changes. Other books live and die based on who's working on them.

What about everyone else? Is there a title you'll always pick up, or are you more loyal to specific writers and artists than the character itself?

JLA is something that I will usually pick up. Golden Age heroes are my soft spot.

Batman is usually my pick up too. Batman usually has a very strong writer along with a strong artist. Really the only Batman artist that I just couldn’t stand was Frank Robbins. I remember picking up a Detective comics with Neal Adams and a Batman comic with Frank Robins in the same month and thinking to myself WTF is this?
