Q Magazine opt for a more simplistic graphology, using one main image of the star/band used on the front cover. The image does not rely upon his sex appeal but rather his reputation as a musician. Q is a monthly edition therefore the banners make this known to the reader - 'Every Month'. The banners use coordinating colours so as to represent the clean cut nature of Q magazine, which wants substance over style.
Quotes from band members are used in order to advertise whats to come in the rest of the issue and to generate interest in the rest of the article 'I fart in your face'.
Q magazine is popular for formulating lists of best Beatles songs, '100 greatest albums ever' etc. This is a special promotional method which entice consumers.
The information is presented neatly and is organised with the text of Sans Serif font on the left hand side, and the main image to the right.
There are no promotional offers, as the target audience of Q magazine only buy the magazine for the purpose of music.
