''Nickelodeon Magazine'' is a children's magazine published by the Nickelodeon cable TV channel. It was first published in 1990 at a cover price of $1.95 and was distributed for free at participating Pizza Hut restaurants, but production ceased after the second issue {Link without Title} . The magazine returned to production in Summer 1993. Originally published on a quarterly basis, it switched to bi-monthly with its February/March 1994 issue. It then went to 10 times per year starting March 1995. It is still published monthly except for the June/July and December/January (formerly January/February) issues. As of July 2007, ''Nickelodeon Magazine'' has had 133 issues. In spite of being related to the network it is named after, ''Nickelodeon Magazine'' covers all sorts of topics for kids, whether inside the network or outside. It contains informative non-fiction pieces, humor, interviews, comics, pranks, and recipes (such as green slime cake). The magazine's mascot is Zelda Van Gutters , a Lakeland Terrier dog who appears throughout the magazine making smart alecky comments. On the table of contents, Zelda introduces herself as the magazine's "roving reporter". She is also the star of the magazine's regular photo comic strip "Ruffing It". In May 2006 , the magazine got a makeover in the form of a brand new logo, but the insides such as the comic book stayed the same. THE COMIC BOOK Every issue of ''Nickelodeon Magazine'' includes a section called "The Comic Book". Usually, this insert is made up of regular comic strips from Underground artists. The original editor of the section was Anne D. Bernstein. Since 1997 it has been edited by Chris Duffy, who was joined by Dave Roman a few years later.
