Death of the New Gods is NOT an event comic.
An event comic would involve multiple titles and multiple teams of superheroes against a threat.
Death of the New Gods was very self-contained and merely told the story of God serial killer.
A better candidate would have been Sinestro Corps....
THAT'S an event comic.

You're not alone there. Just never liked it.
FC - Was pretty decent overall as long as you forget 3/4's of FC 7 and about a quarter of FC 6.
Civil War - never read the whole thing so can't make a review.
Annhilation Wave - one of the better event comics Marvel's released in recent years. It had great scope and the best parts were the tie ins like Star Lord, Ronan and co. When the main story focused on SS it was good, Thanos was meh and Annhilus was a good villain.
DOTNG - Not an event comic and it really didn't do the New Gods justice. Stuff from the Simonson-Bryne era were so much more epic than anything we saw in DOTNG.
Secret Invasion - Was a mess, where FC could have done with more issues to flesh out the story between FC 6 and 7 especially, SI could have done with a lot fewer issues. It was a simple story that should have been way more stream-lined.
SI had less to tell than FC yet it had more tie-ins and issues.
