The slogan was "Two comics in one, double the fun!" One concept was that both comics were rival publications in one. A guest appearance by one character in the story of another would be described as a "raid", and the "victimised" comic would seek its revenge with a "raid" of its own the following week. In common with most British comics both sections originally included some semi-colour strips in black, white and red ( Duotone ) as well as Black And White . To reinforce the distinction between the two sections, the duotone strips in ''Chips'' were later changed to black,white and blue. Readers were encouraged to become either a 'Whizz-Kid' or a 'Chip-ite', depending on which section they read. The leader of the Whizz-Kids throughout was a boy called Sid with his snake Slippy, and the leader of the Chip-ites was a boy called Shiner. Both had their own strips in their respective sections, '' Sid's Snake '' in Whizzer and '' Shiner '' in Chips. Other characters throughout the comic's 21 year run included: WHIZZER
