In house style!

You know what.  I think I'd prefer to avoid that.

Let the artists run wild with their creations the way they want them. Then let the children who read it decide which they like best. One page it's a light fluffy brightly coloured story, the next is dark and atmospheric.  Children are intelligent creatures, they'll let you know which they like best.  But that doesn't mean it all begins to look the same.

Think of a magazine like the old HEAVY METAL.  Every article a different style from the last - (Only probably with less tits and willies!)  Because I don't think a publication aimed at 10-14 year olds would be looked upon too favourably then.

Present stories in different ways. Some picture heavy, some text heavy - But ensure it is all GOOD. Well illustrated, well written, well put together.
