iar: magazine V

V = Viz [201 Christmas £3.20 pp 52]


Would I buy again: no
Time taken to read: 32.75 mins of dedicated time
Favourite strip: pushing it. Probably the photo strip about the Christmas ghost story - it wasn't particularly exciting but it did have the twisty ending of ye traditional ghosty story.
Most interesting thing: there was an advert for cigarette papers


Alternatives: mainly expensive 'fashion' mags (lots of well-lit pretty pictures of ostensibly unattractive but scantily-clad high-fashion models)


Bought from: a friendly but formal man in a London newsagent. I bought 6 magazines in one go. I spent ages walking up and down the racks, occasionally flicking through a magazine and returning it to its temporary home. The shop keeper followed me with his eyes.


[in case you were wondering... oops, I've given the ending of the ghosty story away!! ;-)].
