I think you're right, but it cuts both ways. Gaiman and Moore couln't do what they did without someone turning what's in their minds into pretty pictures.
True. Moreso though you have to see how much input the writer has on the panel layouts and content. Gaiman has strong visual ideas about how he wants his story illustrated, but he does allow a fair bit of leeway (judging by the scripts of his I've seen from the early sandmans that got sent to the artists). Alan Moore on the other hand has a rep for being incredibly controlling of the artwork. Which is why Bill won't work with him anymore, and why 'numbers' never got done.
