I like the idea of the three of them going off together. I think, as a trio, they'd be like a system of checks and balances on each other (possibly with some hilarious results).

I think one of the major art shortfalls with these comics is a lack of style. I mean to say that they really needed an artist who could capture the spirit of the characters without relying on photo-likenesses. Obviously, there are artists like Victor Drujiniu who can do both, but it's impossible to know if that style could hold up over a long period of time with looming deadlines (judging by his work on The Occult, he definitely can and does this, but many artists cannot). I think that a stylized approach to character design from the beginning would have helped dramatically in terms of a wider array of emotions being conveyed. Also, a stylized approach might have helped with the pre-production process (model sheets, Pantone sheets), so that artists and audience could keep up with which character is which.
