| Aug 4, 2012 at 3:47 | comment | added | Anixx | Well. I cannot imagine a magazine in Russian with name being adjective. | |
| Aug 4, 2012 at 3:23 | comment | added | Mark Beadles | There's not a requirement that any part of the magazine's name be a noun. "Hot", "Shoot", "Beyond" would all be perfectly fine magazine names. Any English word or phrase can be adopted as a proper name - at which time it becomes a noun when used in that context. | |
