It's a Marvel event. These things still sell shed loads regardless of how good they are.

Hell, even Fear Itself moved an average of 100k+ copies of each issue and that's considered the worst Marvel event of the past 20 years.

The last big marvel event that I liked was Onslaught. Though I guess I have to admit, I've kept reading AvX even though it sucks.

Yeah, how good something is rarely has an effect on it being top 10 or not. Major factors nowadays are hype, number of variants for the issue & "free" copies.
