I don\\\'t think there can be a totally hard-and-fast rule one way or the other. The way I think of it is sort of \\\"Did this get a big reaction out of fans, such that it had a life beyond that story?\\\"

For instance, the GenderBender issue of [[GreenLantern Guy Gardner]] - people liked it and all, but by and large, nobody\\\'s doing much with the \\\"female Guy\\\" concept.

OTOH, the \\\"Captain America and Iron Man\\\" example was a minor gag in one story, but one that seemed to set off a lot of fans\\\' imaginations.

Both come out of \\\"official\\\" stories, in other words, but in one case, the fans went off and ran with it, which puts it in this trope.
