Anime and Manga Magazine: Questor

Questor Magazine started about 2000. I would like to think that it took the Philippines by surprise.  The magazine provided nice articles written by people who love manga as well. If I remember it right, it sold for 100 or 120. I was in my sophomore year when I first found out about this. Unfortunately I wasn't able to buy the 1st release. 


The Questor magazine staff are


Editor-In-Chief:                                     Bambi Eloriaga
Managing Editor:                                 Johann Frederick Cabbab
Lay-out Artist                                        Rommel Ruanto
Creative Department Supervisor    Jess Matro
Visual Artists                                        Rey Limoneras
                                                                John Michael Lu
                                                                Michael Ong
                                                                Sidney Ang
Japanese Correspondednt             Takako Takimoto 

I am not sure how many Questor magazines were published in total. I have to confirm that. 

The magazine included freebies like pencils, stationery, even cds. I remember getting free cds of Greed Island (HunterXHunter).  They even had calendars there. All I can say is that I think the magazine was created ahead of their time. 

Here's a couple of magazine covers:
