Nah putting Wolverine and Spidey on the Avengers was Bendis’ idea, I remember reading an interview looking back at his Avengers run after it wrapped up. Lol when he pitched the idea at the Marvel summit the whole room went ape**** at him, and Joe Quesada talked about seeing $$$ because if the writers in that room got all worked up just imagine what the fan base would do. And guess what? It worked, Bendis Avengers was one of the top sellers when historically Avengers had been where the B and C-Listers were dumped.
