All adds and removes of event handlers during the dispatching of an event 
(which is the case when the activity starts: it's in response to a 
PlaceChangeEvent) is deferred to after the event has been dispatched all 
handlers.
Events however are dispatched synchronously (so that handlers can possibly 
modify them and the sender take action depending on the event after the 
dispatching; see setWarning for PlaceChangeRequestEvent).
So you have to defer your fireEvent() call using the Scheduler:

// Assuming a Scheduler has been @Inject-ed
scheduler.scheduleFinally(new ScheduledCommand() {
  @Override
  public void execute() {
    MyEvent event = new MyEvent();
    event.setAction(MyEvent.Action.INIT);
    globalEventBus.fireEvent(event);
  }
});

It's a good rule to always assume you might be called as part of event 
dispatching unless you're handling UI events (click on a button, etc.) and 
thus always defer your event dispatching in this case.
