What’s up with people not wanting to support Van Sciver? Did he do something?

I mean DC Rebirth has been a success but I feel like the most of the books are suffering a lot:
Titans has been a huge disappointment. I couldn't care less about James Robinson's dated writing in WW. I don't like Detective Comics cause of its overcrowded cast. Recently I dropped Batman too because I don't want to pay 3 dollars for heavily deconstructed story. Flash has been really bad recently.
They have to do something about all of their line-up because the fire is fading away.
Ahhhh. I’ll have to look that up. Also, why is it that DC hasn’t known what to do with Titans or Teen Titans in years? It seems like they just don’t know where these characters and teams fit in to the DCU.
By the way, to some people, Teen Titans and Titans suffered from the de-aging of most of DC heroes when they switched to the New 52.
When you remove many years of history / experience / stories from the main adult characters, what do you do with two different generations of younger heroes? DC chose to (sort of) keep some of the latest generation of Teen Titans, and several members of the original group (which became the highly popular New Teen Titans under Marv Wolfman and George Pérez) originally got downgraded/forgotten/eliminated from existence.
Dropped all. Trade waiting. Been in a Marvel Epic Collection phase since summer.
So back to most likely dropping Wonder Woman after this arc. Story is just dull as dirt, why does DC need so many heel turn lovers/family members in rebirth. Jason makes the third I've had the displeasure of reading about.
I'm borderline on dropping Flash with the same thing happening with Meena. The last few issues have been better but I just really hate that her only purpose seems to have been to give Williamson an out for the negative speed force power.
Also forgot to mention I had dropped JLA after the first 7-8 issues.
Went ahead and dropped Superman for a while. Its been on a downward trend since the summer really. Imperius Lex looked good but has turned out not to be anything special. And add to that continuous filler, I think the Tomasi/Gleason era should be done. They seem to be most interested in Jon anyway, so they might as well move to Super Sons or something.
Action just ended a very disappointing arc too in the Oz Effect, but this new storyline with Booster could be fun so I'm sticking with that. But honestly the whole franchise has me very worried headed into the new year. I'm afraid of what the ongoing Doomsday Clock might do in regards to hamstringing already pretty mediocre storylines.
Only thing bothering me about Wonder Woman is that two of the past three issues didn't even have her in it outside of a cameo shot. Can't do that. Has me concerned, but not done.

The only Rebirth title I've really dropped is Nightwing. It wasn't bad or anything. I just...slowly started to lose interest with each arc.
I was this close to dropping Batman after the first three arcs practically bored me to tears ("I Am Bane" is one of the worst story arcs I've ever read) but that book won be back with the Riddler/Joker war and then continued to win me over with all the Bat/Cat stuff.
