It's interesting to wonder if the marvel comics themselves are created as you say, by motivated individuals or by committee. Definitely the origin stories (at least the ones we've been fed) are of one, sometimes two, writers, hatching basically every super hero character we know. But those origin stories are all in the past (the most recent that's culturally noticed is MacFarlane with Spawn?) I wonder if the current vanguard of marvel comics (or others) are driven by individuals or by committee. I would guess that it's closer to the former, because comic _books_ are still not the enormous business that the movies are, and hence have much fewer people to please. Hopefully Marvel et al are wise enough to hand the reigns of new, current books over to new, motivated, and individual, writers.
