I don't mind the long plan.
When looking at Remender's Uncanny Avengers, he's still following his storyline that he begin in a Secret Avengers, carried to X-force, Uncanny X-force, and now to Uncanny Avengers. While it is not purely derived that 'read the prior to follow the whole!', it is a continual build on his story/continuity. I for one, am enjoying this completely.
Is that kind of story easier with team books, that focus only on inter-personal reactions and lifestyle, versus a hero's private life? For sure. Superior Spider-man, while under the luxury of twice a month shipping, seems at times to tell a cool Marvel hero story, while also spinning it's wheels as it slowly gains traction for it's next big thing.
While both do not subscribe to the 6 month checklist of story, rising hook, conclusion (well that's checked off; NEXT), there are times where I do want a larger picture solidified.
As much as I hate him, and really don't overall care for a reread of his run ever, Bendis Daredevil was I think properly done. Everything was put into the same pot, stewed together, more ingredients were added, but the same stew kept being made until it was just right.
