Editing Whizzer and Chips (section)

==Concepts==
One ongoing concept was that the two comics were fierce [[:wikt:rival|rival]]s. A guest appearance by a character from one of the [[comic strip]]s in the [[Narrative|story]] of one in the other magazine would be described as a "raid", and the other comic would seek its revenge with a raid of its own the following week. The first raid appeared in issue 2.

Readers were encouraged to become either a "Whizz-Kid" or a "Chip-ite", depending on which section they preferred. The leader of the Whizz-Kids was a boy called Sid and his [[snake]] Slippy, from the ''[[Sid's Snake]]'' comic strip. The leader of the Chip-ites was a boy called [[Shiner (comics)|Shiner]] from the comic strip of the same name, who had aspirations to become a [[Boxing|boxer]] and always ended up with a black eye (the eponymous "shiner").  In the first issue of ''Whizzer and Chips'', ''Sid's Snake'' was on the cover of ''Chips'', for Shiner did not appear until issue 2.
