Nick Magazine is a defunct American children's magazine inspired by the children's television network Nickelodeon. Its first incarnation appeared in 1990 and was distributed at participating Pizza Hut restaurants; the version of the magazine only saw two issues. The magazine returned in Summer 1993 with all types of content, primarily humor and comics. Originally published on a quarterly basis, it switched to bi-monthly with the February/March 1994 issue. It then went to ten times per year starting in March 1995, with a bi-annual December/January and June/July issue until its end in 2009.
For most of its run, the magazine's editor-in-chief was Laura Galen. She wrote the goodbye message for the 159th and final issue in 2009.
On February 5, 2015, Papercutz announced that they worked a deal with Nickelodeon to create a new version of the magazine.[2] The first issue was released in June 2015, and the final issue was released in 2016.

I was the first editor of Nickelodeon Magazine, so that was fun... I don't quite remember how that happened. I'd met all the Nickelodeon people because I was writing Eureeka and I think that's how all of that came about.
