Pink, pink and more pink...

I'm at the beginning of my research into girls comics.

In my local newsagents this is what is on offer. A pile of pink branded magazines, no wonder my daughter reads The Beano instead.

Why do all the comics have to be so commercial? Surely there's a market out there for a story based comic?

I've started a thread on Mumsnet (see link to the right), to see how other parents feel about this; I'm also in the process of finding links online to girls comics and their demise...
