Interesting question.
Characters' personalities shift with different writers.
On average though, i personally prefer either a down to earth personality.
Ben Grimm, Ted Kord, on average are great examples of down to earth. Byrne Superman was that way, too. He's an example of different writers really altering a character.

Have to agree with the different writer thing.
Examples are
Green Arrow under Grell was freaking Awesome but went down hill quick when he left.
Deadshot under the pen of Ostrander was freaking fantastic but he's shite when written by anyone else.
Denny Oneal did an Awesome Question (Vic Sage) and so did Vietch but when others write him I hate the character.
List goes on and on.

Why is that? Do you admire his confidence? That's why I love him. I also admire his fearlessness and the fact that he never lets his emotions interfere with his grand scheme or goal. He views everything objectively and knows when to suppress his aggressive Tyrant persona and balance it out with composure, this is an attribute of a king. I feel that as a man this is a vital attribute we should all acquire so that we may become Kings in our own universe (In our heads and lives.)

Thanks for getting my point.
Also, those three examples are damn near perfect. Some writers just shoe horn personalities onto characters, some "get" the characters.
