Why would they do that? I mean if it WAS to be an ongoing it would make sense to keep readership interested and get new readers on board, but with the sales figures I sadly don't think it will, which makes me ask, why not wait to publish it all as one book, one complete story?
Releasing it as separate arcs makes more sense for an ongoing and follows the formula of other ongoings trade schedule, rather than a maxi in one go...
Makes sense that they are bundling together the issues that have "Fear Itself" on the cover, tho.
Also, the word 'Premiere' might put it under the Marvel Premiere Classics line, and they tend to go by storylines where they can. Though publishing an entire 8-issue maxi isn't beyond their scope (I've got a 9-issue run of West Coast Avengers in MPC format sitting right behing me as we speak.)

"Do you recall the time that you examined the body?
The autopsy started around 8:30 p.m.
And Mr. Dennington was dead at the time?
No, he was sitting on the table wondering why I was doing an autopsy."
