Horrible Histories

I would be interested to know why the setter chose to base this question (and the next) on the magazines, which were all published in 2003, rather than the books – published between 1994 and 2003. I have to admit that until I heard it I hadn't even realised that there was a series of magazines, let alone that they had different titles from the books.

I'd have thought that the books would have been more definitive, and more suitable as a base for quiz questions. Not only were they published first, but the titles are a lot simpler – and, it seems to me, more catchy and thus easier to remember.
