No Adour, the many non-related titles are not peripheral to the few (and they are few not many as you keep pretending, make a count). Your mistake in logic is that you start with the premise that Marvel Now is an AvX aftermath event and you wind up with that same conclusion, thus going in circles. Start by observing facts, what the Marvel execs actually said, by the titles themselves and verifying that hypothesis. Don't dream up data about "must reads", which isn't a fact but an opinion. Stick to observable facts. The most must-read title nowadays is probably Superior Spider-Man (the best-selling regular series), totally unrelated to AvX. It also shows that Marvel doesn't control what will be most popular. The Marvel universe is not just some private list of big guns ("flagship title") or favourite titles ("usual indisputable must-reads"). In addition an "aspect", whether minor or main is not what makes an event. A status quo isn't an event if there is no story attached. Don't proceed by similarities. If you do so, you wind up saying A is like B, B is like C, C is like D so A is like D, which is totally false. Proceed by definitions. I pointed out early the mistake of using "can be considered" which means linguistically and logically that identification cannot take place. 3) Read again what I said about distinguishing the two meanings of the word "event" and you'll get there.
